ARM YOURSELVES-the Voice of the Pike County (Ohio) sheriff

Let's see.

The problem: a family is killed as a result of a drug-related contract killing.

The advice: everyone buy lots of guns.


Hmmmm...

More sensible advice would be: DON'T BE A DRUG DEALER.

Drug dealers are only there because of the idiots who use this crap and steal and rob to pay for it. Seems the Sheriff was right after all.
 
well if you are an anti gun leftist, you don't want people buying guns and you CERTAINLY don't want a respected law enforcement leader telling people that buying guns is a good thing. You want cops and LEOs telling people that guns are evil and only "professionals" should be able to own them

Seems these guys should have invested in a good security system :lol:
 
after 8 members of the same family were executed in what appears to be a drug related contract killing and the intense efforts of local, state and probably federal investigators have yet to identify the killer(s). Smart advice Sheriff.

I could swap out your first sentence for any other and it would fail to lead to the conclusion in the second sentence just as hard.


“We are hamstrung by the fact that you can’t do legitimate scientific research unless you have a Schedule 1 license,” he said. Seems the Sheriff was right after all.

On of the evening of May 11, Ugandan users began reporting that they couldn't access social media sites like Facebook and Twitter. Seems the Sheriff was right after all.



Hmm. Yup. Those make about as much sense






Listen: The point was terribly simple. A drug dealer's family was killed due to the dealer's actions in the drug trade. It does not make sense for random people not in the drug trade to buy a lot of guns in response. What does make sense is not to be a drug dealer. Or, I suppose, arm yourself to the teeth if you are. (Something that doesn't necessarily strike me as a positive)

In order to refute you did not use the data given but substituted something you could attack. Brilliant but you were not the first to think of a strawman argument. It fails abysmally but thanks for the lovely demonstration of the principle.
