It's always amazing to watch how people struggle to think outside the box.
We're not struggling, sammie. We just are not interested in fantastical musings based on child-like fantasy.
If, in support of an argument I was making, I said, "what would Ice Giants think if they saw Wookies eating Pterodactyl steaks in the same restaurant as Smurfs? Would they think Americans are socially backwards?"
Where does a rational adult even go with that scenario? It's absurd. Yet, you are using the same argument to bolster your viewpoint...then stand befuddled when we call you on it. And, try being honest: you were using that example to promote your personal agenda.
Americans are comfortable with gun violence inside their own country
If this were true, then there'd be no gun debates, would there? No gun legislation at all. I am a gun owner and I am deeply concerned about gun violence. I hate it.
I posed an alternate viewpoint that as usual a few people just don't have the comprehension skills to engage
You can use intellectual bullying all you want, sammie. It doesn't add one iota of credibility to what you say. This type of bullying is a sure sign you've got nothing to add to the conversation, so must resort to ad hominem attacks. A pity.
Actually, we do have the "comprehension skills" to engage...that's why we called you on it.
