Advanced degrees in liberal arts fields don't equate to much. The masters and doctoral programs are usually a walk in the park.

All of the male MDs I know own guns.

Just because one has education it doesn't mean they are correct in everything they do.

If you look deeper into that same study,it also shows that people who don't have a gun for protection,are 100 times more likely to blow a cock,take a cock in their arse,and let another person piss and shite all over them.

Use your firearms all you want.

But do you really have to go to the Wal Mart with them to buy socks? Really? Life is that dangerous? Cmon now.

You're making a lot of assumptions. I was asking questions.

I think extraordinarily high of our vets and military personnel.

Don't be a jerk. You asked. I answered. I never would have brought it up otherwise.

Plus I got in I am sure due to some mistake.

Telling someone they are a prepared killer, is not ASKING them if they are a prepared killer.

Even if they are prepared killers?

Gun reform to amend the constitution does not mean I am against the 2nd amendment. The 2nd amendment doesn't say anything about your AR-15 dildo.

No, I'm suggesting that you, a gun owner, are locked and loaded ready to kill an intruder. You've gone over it in your head. If you pull the gun, you have to be ready to kill. You're ready for it, right? You're ready to kill?? 

You are a prepared killer
No, I've got a loaded pistol in my nightstand. I've never once thought about what I should do if someone kicked in my door in the middle of the night. I don't have a plan. Should I just start shooting down the hallway towards the door?

I don't think it's smart to have a plan in my head in case this ever happens. I'll just wing it.

Sounds smart huh?

I carry as often as I can. My body is broken and I'd rather not have to find out if I'm still a bad arse.

Also, I don't shop at Walmart. Your examples have been terrible. Try them somewhere else.

Smart and educated aren’t the same thing. In many fields a person with only average intelligence can earn not only a college degree, but a graduate degree as well . All that’s needed is persistence.

So your premise that the lack of a college degree = dumb is, well, dumb.

Probably can be broken down to the higher the income, the better the neighborhood, the less likely to need a gun.

I have a degree in engineering. I don't own a gun. But that's not because I think owning a gun is a bad thing.
