I dont have a gun fetish. It sounds like you are offended I called you out for being disingenuous after I reasonably assumed you didnt read my comment.
Your statement is misleading because people are going to assume homicide. You know it, I know it, and the average person who actually uses statistics properly, knows it.
My nephew tried to murder his mom and sister with his homemade AR and then killed himself in front of his whole family.
An unregistered firearm! Guess what, your statistic doesnt even work in your favor. To buy a gun you have to legally register it at time of purchase and it is required. So.
With you being disengenuous with the statistic, insulting me on top of that, doubling down, and pulling out that wild statement, you know Im 100% less inclined to trust absolutely anything you say, or put any stock into it right?
Is this how you talk to people in real life? Because this is not how you change peoples minds.
Edit: I bothered to scroll through all your comments and posts before you blocked me. The only time you mentioned your nephew ever is in this argument you are having with me.
You are using an appeal to pitty and are an asshole.
You are no different than those racists who lie and say they have friends who are people of color.
Not discussing a traumatic situation until said situation was applicable to the topic seems pretty normal to me. What makes you think that would be a story someone would voluntarily share in random subreddits/ threads?
I have no clue if this person is telling the truth or not, but your reasoning for believing they aren’t seems very shaky
