  1. That's funny.

    Perhaps he's trying to help.

  2. It may be none of our business, but I don't think he's talking to us.

    Mack, am I missing something? I don't see why it's funny, or why he should be mocked for "trying to help".

    He's taking what looks to me to be a well-reasoned, public stand in hostile territory. And at least he's not "open-carrying" an AK-47 on the quad.

  3. What he's doing is not only good, by taking an advocacy stand it is brave. I was trying to make a wider point and I see how it came off as flippant.

  4. " ... I see how it came off as flippant."

    That's what I saw.

    And besides, I've like what he's written before, so it's not like I'm unfamiliar with his work:

    I think this is funny too, because he throws the fake 'logic' of gun-haters right back at them:

  6. No, we're cool. I can see how inferences were made.
