Arguing with Anti-Gun Folks

Post by dlh »

We have all had to listen to folks who tell us guns are what is wrong with America, etc. etc.

Those folks usually have access to a computer and the internet and I always encourage them to listen to this:



A few of the women I have talked to about this changed their mind after listening to/watching the video.

That is the best video I have seen on the subject. I have sent it on to my friends and relatives. Thanks for posting.

the only problem I see with this video is that it's almost implied that you need a chl to have a gun in your house. This happens often in these videos.

I really didn't see it that way. The point he was was trying to make was that you need protection at home and away from home. If away from home most states require some kind of CHL.

Probably the same point could have been achieved with just the two 911 calls. The "Mr Barker" and "Mr Noisy Cricket" was way too cheesy.

I stopped watching at the point where he named his guns. That bit there isn't going to convince an anti-gun person of anything....at least, not favorably so.

There was another 911 call at the end - a home invasion of some sort. That one got my attention more than the first because time seemed so drawn out.

In response to the title, here is a good question to ask the anti-gunner. "What is the common denominator if every murder?"

See how many of them say human instead of a gun.

I have a better question than that.....

"So tell me, which do you prefer: self defense, or chalk outlines? Now, if the bad guy has a gun, which do you prefer: your own gun, or a chalk outline shaped remarkably like you?"
