Must have touch s nerve for you to go off like that. Rude, lower your self to name calling insults does your side no good. Anger and guns are a bad combo. I suggest an anger management class.
To what part of what I posted, do you attribute anger?
For what its worth, when I hit the 'post my reply!' button, I had a smile on my face. A shit eating grin, in fact. The same as I usually have when dealing with anti-gun nonsense.
Perhaps you need need an emotional competency course:
Learn to recognize these emotions in yourself and others
Know how you feel
Each emotion serves as a primal beacon, guiding us along the difficult path of survival and procreation. Many researchers have worked to define emotions and have created their own lists of what they consider to be an emotion. Several of those lists are presented here. Use these lists and short descriptions to recognize the emotions you are feeling; then use the detailed description of each emotion to guide you toward the most constructive response. A subjective mood map locates each emotion according to the energy level and good-bad feelings often associated with it.
Seven Basic Emotions
Paul Ekman has dedicated his career to researching emotions, focusing primarily on these seven basic emotions.
◾ Fear Danger lurks
◾ Sadness Impending loss
◾ Anger An Urgent Plea for Justice and Action
◾ Joy Impending gain
◾ Surprise Unexpected event
◾ Disgust Contamination, toxic contact
◾ Contempt Substandard behavior or being

On the other hand, if you can't, or decide not to reply, I'll take that as a concession that I am 100 percent correct.
I accept your concession.
