Gun Sales Up, Liberals are Buying

Is comprehension not one of your strong points? Memory obviously is not nor do you seem to have any ability to cogitate and back track to find what you have not answered but avoided. Now you pretend ignorance. Is there no end to this deceit? Gun control advocates who refuse to answer simple questions are so predictable.

It's a simple question you must know the answer to. Tell us why you have avoided answering in the first place. Did it make you feel uncomfortable and incredulous that any other answer could actually exist? You brushed that aside and tried deflection or any of the other tricks you have found successful previously. Eventually you hope to wear out your opponent by repetitive dodging about like a cornered rat looking for an escape route.

I do not ask irrelevant questions. When are you going to answer my question? How much more avoidance are you going to indulge in before you do? Why do you do it. It's just information.

People collect metadata all the time. Why is it so hard for you to understand that someone collected data on last minute 2016 gun purchaes?

I would presume because the quote in the article came from Lara Smith, who is the spokesperson for the Liberal Gun Club. Since the Pink Pistols is an LGBT friendly gun club, it might be reasonable to assume some gay membership. An especially fair assumption since their web site describes themselves as a club that "teaches queers to shoot".

You are right about the Trump part. While the claim is that the above mentioned clubs have gained membership, the connection to Trump is vague.

I don't think I've ever seen an LGBT unfriendly gun club. And I'm pretty deep in the south lol.

Another deflection and you have tried that one before, Maybe you should have read my response the first time you tried it.

WTF has this got to do with what I asked? Will you cease with your avoidance and idiotic deflections and just answer what you were asked. Why is that so difficult for you? Is your comprehension that seriously impeded that you cannot figure out what you were asked?

Try backtracking as suggested, you do know how to do that don't you.

Crimefree Try to write complete sentences. You may find you are better understood that way.

I repeat of what INTEREST is this to any purchase

It has taken at least six posts and still you do not understand what you have been asked for. Perhaps the word interest is confusing to you despite being defined, try USE or PURPOSE then

Your question is odd because we all know that people collect information all the time. Why do they do it? Marketing usually. There is a lot of money to be made knowing buying habits and patterns of various groups.

Believe you me, they (the data collectors and analysts) know more about you than you do yourself. That you are surprised they know who bought guns and why is more a reflection of your lack of awareness than me being a pita.

You seem to be riding a hobby horse of metadata yet your claim does not mention this word. Do you understand the term DEFLECTION. You have not back tracked have you....... It is not "metadata" but private and confidential data.

Your excuse is simply an attempt to shift the blame. Who requires +6 attempts to get an answer from? A person willing to answer or somebody who is deliberately obscuring and avoiding?

Here since you are obviously incapable.

Neither gun shops or private sales are reported to commercial interests. Clubs and organisations do not distribute their member list. It is not metadata.

I can assume you obviously do not have any answer other than who to round up by government.

Yep. We do like shooting down here. There is a reason I never picked up a golf club. If it is a nice enough day to play golf...it is nice enough to go skeet shooting. :)

How about combine the two and shoot golf balls??? (Your own of course...Not someone else's....And not on a golf course...) They make great targets.

a guy I used to shoot with-sadly no longer with us-set up a celebrity golf and Clays competition that was featured on ESPN. He was a scratch golfer and a veteran's All American sporting clays shooter. IT was held in Florida. I don't play golf so I wasn't part of it

Is there really anything to fear from a new gun owner who is afraid of a gun?

Probably more for defense from the "Conservatives" they believe are coming for the minorities. Would you, for example, have defended with a force a slave being rounded up in, say, Massachusetts under the fugitive slave act? Most people, of course, did not. Same with being a German in Nazi land. If you were there and armed, would you have defended the Jews from the SS?

I think these people are of the idea that they will not allow history to repeat itself. Free country. They can believe what they wish, and they can do it while armed. Gotta love America.

So would you care to give an analysis of why the public would not support such peoples rights?

You may find it even more informative if you gave the reason for the Jews of Nazi Germany not defending themselves. How did they get to that situation?

In the case of the US how is history repeating itself?

Most of these are going into a sock draw where they will stay for a very long time.

I support the right of law abiding citizens bearing arms. Just in case you were unaware.
