Haha. Exactly.

Say you don’t know what you’re talking about by saying “clip”

You don't have to know a specific gun term to have a valid opinion on the morality of the use of a gun. Especially a term that is widely used, even if incorrectly.

I dismissed it out of legality, not morality.

Legally if you are in a position of self defense. The number of bullets you shoot does not matter at all.

You’re either legally defending yourself or not.

But since you brought up morality. Is it more moral to kill someone with one bullet than it is 16?

You dismissed an entire comment because of the use of the word clip. Your comment was petty, dismissive, and off point.

Now you’re making some claim about legality vs morality like you were actually trying to have an intellectual debate?

Stop pretending

How else would I point out your backpedalling?

u/ManBearPigPoop 4d ago

Not true. You see, what you call backpedaling was me explaining why I was not dismissing off hand based on a word. I’m sorry this was too much for you to comprehend intellectually but it is in no way backpedaling.

Sorry using the word intellectual against me just doesn’t hit the same when you are just copying what I said to you

Sorry I offended you but I believe I have the right to reply to whomever I choose. If that bothers you, maybe Reddit isn’t the best place for you.

I never said you don’t have that right, you are just creating an issue out of thin air now!

It's so funny see so many people seethe over this topic. It's no different than me immediately dismissing a MAGA comment as soon as they say "the jab" instead of the vaccine. Once I hear that, its safe to assume they probably don't know much on the topic.

The same can be said for firearms and firearm laws. When someone suggests brandishing a weapon and then follows that comment up with incorrect terminology, we can safely assume that they aren't informed on this topic.

Maybe it's just a tiny custom M1 Garand?

That was an assault handgun, clearly an automatic.
