Guns as the great equalizer

Post Reply New Topic

This thread is about guns as the great equalizer.

My point of view is my expertise in martial arts; mind and body balance; and fearless walking in the streets of nights is a better all innate, instinctual, and intuitive tool as the best possible defense to getting mugged or whatever.

If you do not experience life in a fearless way like this without guns there is no possible way you can understand what I am fully speaking of and feeling in real life in confidence of practicing these all natural ways of greater human potential.

I am the equalizer friend. If you do not agree that's just fine. But never the less it IS irrefutable proof in my life; as I go to wild and crazy bars every week, and meet challenges from other so called macho-head dudes with NO PROBLEM.

I make my own day; with NO need for metal guns. My guns are my arms friend; and my legs are 5 times as strong as most males; and that's an empirically measurable phenomenon per force of kicks as well; Just imagine Bruce Lee 3 times stronger and faster in kicks; and perhaps you will get the picture or not; but the males in the bar I go to get the full picture when they challenge me for strength or dominance and I give 'em a quick exhibition in martial arts style dance kick butt style; coming centimeters from any target I aim.

And then I move back to a softer ballet style and attract the gorgeous women like honey as irrefutably evidenced in 300 or so photos of them with me smiling ear to ear on my blogs.

I watched Alex do that in the photos here; and I said to myself; why not do that too; even in my mid 50's with 18 to 23 year old college-age women; so just I did IT and the evidence of my success if crystal smiling gorgeous clear..

A gun will not help you at all in the real game of life; it's just a last resort that most folks rarely use in real life; that per statistics show is more likely to be in harm of self or other family members than a real 'Clint Eastwood-like Dirty Harry Stand your ground'. I can do that with my chest and legs firmly planted to the ground. And let's get real; just possessing a gun inside a bar with a no-weapons policy enforced by armed policeman can get ya in more trouble than its worth. Even thugs don't do it these days; and on top of that even thugs are growing soft, in a world dominated by sitting still hooked up to virtual reality electronic devices almost all day long.

It's a great time for folks to be strong and a ripe time for folks to be weak. AS ALWAYS the strong will both survive and thrive with both fearless courage and the kindness of Unconditional Tough Love as one and same IN courage and kindness..

It takes much more work than owning a gun and learning how to properly use it; but the benefits are immense and go well beyond defense..

Yeah but if someone starts shooting at you, your arms aren't really going to do much unless the person is close enough for you to take the gun away from them.

And that sort of proves the point about guns being an equilizer. A 100 pound woman (even one who works out as much as you and trains as much as you) would lose in a fight with you. But the gun gives her more of a chance.

Using caps is a common tool to enhance Language in Internet communication.

A new tool, yes; but never the less one that I learned from a marketing specialist who posted on this site, as a new way of literary device. It's only affective for those who enjoy AFFECT in language. In other words, it's not everyone's cup of tea to understand online. But that's how new stuff goes. It spreads and not everyone understands a new way of doing stuff first. Some folks never understand it; and that's okay too; different strokes and all of that; you know; Neurodiversity and stuff like that; smiles..

Of course that's true.

But at least where I live, I'm smart enough to avoid folks like THAT.

I know who to walk away from; but that is a skill that cannot be learned through books or
even martial arts training. That's street smarts that takes decades of practice in the real tough of life.

I'm not saying this will work for anyone but me; but it does work for me; time and time again with success..

Yeah, glad we're in agreement about that. It's always better to walk away if possible.


By the way, the use of all caps is only acceptable for acronyms. Any other use is interpreted as shouting. You can type how you want but most people view all caps as you yelling at them, not as emphasis.

I don't know if you've noticed but Some people even here, now use CAPS for emphasis;
Most people don't understand it, as it is a new way of doing stuff.

I'm not saying it is better; overall; but never the less, it works for some folks;

Particularly ADHD leaning folks who have good response to human affect
and need stimulus instead of avoiding stimulus; a common difference among
folks with Autism; the stimulus seekers vs. the stimulus avoiders; and a common
introvert vs extrovert trait, as well; even the DSM 5 accounts for this difference.

I can't take credit for that as I learned it from someone else who posts here..

And by the way; I can't own a gun; Trigeminal Neuralgia is
named the suicide disease for good reason; so my only
possible adaptation was to become a martial artist with
relatively speaking, in metaphor, 'superman' strength...

The Trigeminal Neuralgia is in remission; and as you
may remember that is the reason I had to turn
down your offer as moderator here in the past..

I was just biding my time here everyday to see
if I could make it one more day alive; for about
2 and a half years; and I do appreciate the
distraction of this option as it possibly
could be a factor that kept me from
hanging myself with a metal
chain to escape a pain
assessed worse
that that even
literal crucifixion.

In my case; not three hours; not three days;
five whole years of dentist drill like pain
in eye and ear. Autism really wasn't a challenge at
All, compared to that; in my case only, of course..

THAT'S why I am only concerned with sticks and stones
in life and personal attacks don't phase me anymore
than a drop of water to quench a thirst of LAZARUS..

yep you're right and everyone else in the whole world is wrong. in fact they can never be right because you ideas are the only right ideas. as someone else said its more likely its you who are wrong. just leave other people alone. so take your own sentence to heart.

Actually, I usually don't end up disagreeing with people the way I have here in this discussion thread, but I think I'll just let this discussion go before it ends up turning ugly anyway.

No, that is not what I meant by this, but I can see why you might think so. Anyway, I've said what I thought I had to say about guns, and since my diplomatic skills are non-existent when it comes to discussions like this, I'll make this my last comment here.

Just wanted to apologize for my response earlier in the hread. It's been weighing on my mind, and it is was over the top and unnecessary.

The thing is issues like this get me very worked up. I often don't even read responses because I know they will make me angry. This is where emotion comes in to conversations like this.

I do look at the studies though in my free time. I've found a lot of arguments for gun control but a lot of counter-counter arguments as well. If you really look deep into the issue, it is extremely complex.The reason I don't read responses in gun threads is because personal attacks are often used as an argument and I don't want to respond too angrily.

I have a point and it is a very simple one. The use of subtly flawed logic without self-examination or ethics or intuition can cause someone to come to the wrong conclusion and defend it very strongly.

Has anyone said that a gun is the answer to everything? No. It's use as a defensive tool is narrow in scope, but on the other hand nothing can take it's place when it actually is needed.

Are you bulletproof? No. Moreover, you know it too, but for whatever reason, like to preach as if we were all stupid. If someone decides to kill you they won't give a s**t one way or the other about your zen state (or whatever) and how much you can leg press.
Oh, an no; you won't be taking a gun from even a relatively skilled practitioner with the handgun even at contact range. It's really not like in Hollywood.

But you still haven't answered why the repeated barrages of "I don't need a gun" poetry and other long winded monologue like the one above. I see no answer in all that boasting and hot air.

Be succinct for a change, please.

'Horatio'; you can't possibly understand the power I have.

It's real; it's all natural; but it is as far beyond your eyes; as the eyes
of dust as opposed to dust...

Yeah; been to the other place of dust; and I know how limiting
that can be as just a human extension of a tool; instead of 'Lion on the Savannah'.

And trust me or not; no film has captured all of what I am more than
capable of
yet..

I don't give a crap what you think;
and yes, I am willing to listen to crap
over and over as folks can learn from crap too.

We live in different worlds friend; Hopefully that is succinct enough and
impossible to explain to you the difference; I can talk forever; but until
you experience life the way I do; you will NEVER EVER be fearless like me.

AND YEAH; I can do stuff that no one is brave enough to do in the entire
world; and evidence that at least once a week. IN not just poetry
BUT fully NUDE visual poetry of the greatest art that is the
human form fully wild again like our ancestors as powerful
as 'Lion' in Human form.. TO BE CLEAR THE ONLY
POET BRAVE ENOUGH TO DO THAT; ever in the
history of Poetry.

Yup; got the proof baby;
if YOU are strong enough to LOOK
at it square between the eyes of
LION..

The greaTEST WARRIORS through
history have been totally naked
and you owe them your existence;
and yes, I am talking about your
distant ancestors that are
a lot like me;
after all classical evolution
is a slow process; epigenetics
in negative style is the reason
so many humans need guns
to gain some illusion
of comfort today;
guns are mostly
a pacifier to
reduce anxiety.

I don't have any anxiety;
therefore I do not
need a pacifier; smiles.

Truly it is as succinct as that:

I DO NOT NEED A PACIFIER.

Have a nice day or make my day..

Yawh...........
More dodging the question.
More reiterating points of the same tiresome monologue.
Oh, except it seems guns are now pacifiers.........WOW!

he says, in a thread titled "guns as the great equalizer"yah, because things like batons, pepper spray, baseball bats, tasers don't exist, right?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-HUxeIxFsQ

woah, those guys must be movie stars..wait, no they're not, you're just wrong. surprise!

@Raptor

Dude, we have different opinions.

This is a forum subgroup specific to
topics of Philosophy, Politics, and Religion

I am more a more a less a naturalist
than tool guy now. So my opinion
on this is squarely in opposition
to yours.

I have as much right here to express
my opinion as you do; and yes, time
and time again the moderators here
have tried to squash my freedom of
expression; because it isn't the
cup of tea of others, even though
I have never directly attacked
another person in malice;
yeah; sarcastic remarks
are allowed here according
to the sub-rules and that
is a better art than a direct
personal attack, instead in WIT.

And yes, I moderate my communication
somewhat myself, in recognition of trying
to get along with folks; but moderate is the
key; not blindly following the heard of herd.

Alex, is an artist not unlike me; so he understands
the value of neurodiversity and minds that think
much differently than the herd. I mean Jesus
H. Christ THAT is why he made this
frigging place for freedom of the
neurodiverse who are not
afraid to 'JUST BE ME'.

I'm not afraid to live on the Planet
that IS ME; no matter what anyone
else thinks differently in the planet
they live on; can you see that now..

I AM NOT DODGING the question, I am continuing
to present my unique imaginative and creative
philosophical opinion on the topic at hand;
and simply ignoring the intellectual bullying
of both you and Dox of trying to impose
the will of personal opinions on others.
I will die for freedom of expression;
no one will nullify either my freedom
or opinion through disagreement
or failure to
understand my
opinion;
CAPICE?

Should it really be necessary to write a dissertation explaining the meaning of the thread?


An ASP baton can be useful at times if you know how to use one
Very compact, and typically effective. I carry a can of Sabre Defense pepper spray in addition to a hangun. Better to pepper them than to shoot them but that is not always the best option, depending...
Yeah, like walking around everywhere with a baseball bat like that won't paint you as some kind of thug.
Next....


A compact easy to carry taser only fires one shot. Even the ones that carry two or three shots are considerably bulkier. The range is very limited. What if you have multiple opponents or the device malfunctions?
With stun guns you have to make physical contact in order to even begin to make the thing work..


Read again the "relatively skilled practitioner" thingy that I wrote. Only a 'tard would hold a gun to someone's head.
