"1: Okay if you have never been in a survival situation please be quiet. You have no actual experience. *goes silent*

2: Correct to a degree.

3: No comment.

4: Weapons *aren't * needed. More often than not your rifle will be a hunting tool for animals.

5: Actually she has something of a point. We do attain a level of desensitization by repeatedly witnessing violence.

Not to say that they will go on a rampage but even I admit that I'm a lot more chilled about the prospect of abominable acts than I used to be.

If we had an item that directly caused a lot of people to go berserk and put other people directly at risk restriction is needed. You can't claim personal freedom when what you do is directly harming and risking the lives of others. "

"To paraphrase Robin Williams...
The is a great country we live in. We have the right to bear arms, or the right to arm bears... Whatever the hell we want!"

"I know happens to me sometimes I'm quiet when i speak so when i try to speak they never hear me so i generally give up though. Also I'm generally kinda loner like so i never have that kinda problem often except with my brother. Finally i must say i agree with you to me personal freedom is in my opinion one of the most important things, there is but i do believe in certain things on collective responsibility like say defense and voting. But otherwise that's it also, don't let her get to you unless she pretty, and baby got back just ignore her and let natural selection play its role."

"I can easily claim that I have a right to defend myself with something equal or great than a criminal can obtain, "

"4: In terms of a survival situation one can obtain food and such without a firearm with some finess.
However you are talking about a confrontation in which case yes a firearm would be fantastic.

5: Um not really. Exactly what part of my comment was that directed at? "We Don't" what?

I'm not defending her but I can see where she's getting some of her mentallity from. That's all. She is correct in thinking that repeatedly seeing violence numbs us to it to a degree.
However for the most part all that means is that we can see things that makes ordinary folks throw up.
Very few will rampage because of a videogame. Those that do were probably touched already.
