Thanks for the props everyone, I'm phsyc'd right now

I am in the process of filling out the survey, and I alot of the questions its asking are bull in my opinion

"An INNEFFECTIVE weapon like pepperspray?"

Does this also include tasers, prods, and the like? Because the only other category to choose from is "An EFFECTIVE weapon like a firearm."

I don't know about other people, but a cow prod seems plenty effective to me.

I also like the question

"Alot of people say that possessing a firearm changes the attitude of the user, if you had a handgun would you, 1: Shoot up a fast food restaurant, 2: Shoot up an army base"

I wonder how many people use those as answers.

Police officers carry high-capacity handguns and store shotguns or submachine guns in patrol cars because...

i dunno man, I didn't write it.

But things like peperspray, a taser and whatnot are very situational and close range. Peperspray can just as easily blow back in your face. That said, a gun is very stuational too. Many people who carry a gun, also carry pepperspray to defuse situations where a gun would be inapproriate.

Looking at that question/answers, yea, it has an obvious bias there, but its just the authors opinion. I know I'd rather have a gun to defend my life though, defuse the situation fully. Pepperspray will give you the ability to spray - hoping the wind isn't blowing toward you, and run.

*sigh* I'm not even the one who brought up guns and politics. I was just excited about my test scores. h:

Gun's and politics follow you around :P

Anyway I agree with you that it has a very obvious bias. Anyway sorry for bringing up firearms I know your sick of the two subjects.

I just assumed that was your choice, as opposed to the other two

the cops are evil and want to kill innocents.

police deparments cannot afford tanks.

such firearms are effective means of self-defense


Anyway, you should check out the blue pill side also, it has a lot of good information.

So many people are so misinformed about guns and gun safety, and gun control that I wouldn't be suprised if there is a respectible percentage of people who actually beleive that, like mobstersmoke.
