The counter-argument:

This is what happens when you let the government disarm the citizens. Terrorists are reduced to using knives, are only able to kill 2 people and brave guys are able to subdue them with a narwhal tusks and fire extinguisher.

SMH at one of the tweets.

“Congrats to the guys who took him down. But I just can’t understand why they had to shoot him.”

Articulating a counter argument to expose the weakness in the primary argument is a “libertarian pov”?

The first argument upset you.


And I’d wager this would upset you: mass importation of third world people into first world society is a failure and will be a failure going forward.

You fancy yourself a mind reader?

But I guess it is fair to say poorly thought out arguments with obvious weaknesses are annoying.

I agree, mass, unchecked importation of refugees is a mistake.

Hey, is it fair to say exposing the weakness in the other poster’s post really upset you? Can you articulate why it upset you so much?

Common sense fire extinguisher control.

No reason anyone needs one of those anyway.

Thankfully in this country your counter argument is irrelevant.

I prefer freedom thank you very much.

Perhaps we should enlist better arguments than those made by the prior poster?

How in the world is that a libertarian point of view? Libertarians aren’t supposed to support government overreach. And most definitely not a government disarming the populace.

Sure. We can start with repealing the 1934 NFA and go from there.
