mnealtx 0 #77 January 2, 2010 QuoteQuote If you can't figure it out, then you probably don't need to be posting in these type of threads. In past you have been caught multiple times in situations when you said something which was discovered to be false, and then played "this is not what I meant" game, refusing at the same time to explain what you meant. No, thanks. Either you explain what you mean by your quite out of context post, or talk to yourself. Murder is murder. The victim is still dead, regardless of the TOOL used to commit the murder. Is that simple enough, or do I need to dumb it down some more?Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'd be alive as well if you just gave him your money, as he was not trying to kill you. If you take out another knife, or a dummy gun it might also have the same effect. So far pretty much every gun story I heard the same effect might be achieved having unloaded broken gun, as none actually used it. I also wonder if you turned him in to the police, or just let him go and rob others? Quote argue those points. as far as being reported, that would be a good example of no news is good news. why would any one report that? 3people dead at the bus stop woulda made news wouldnt they? An attempt to kill three people even in average physical condition with just a knife would most likely fail.* Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. * Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I'm just pointing out that your assumption that three of you would be dead if you didn't have a gun is definitely groundless. But since you didn't turn a criminal to the police (very "nice" of you, I have to admit, and makes the whole story much less believable), next time he'll probably bring a gun, and shot you as soon as you try to reach for yours.* Don't pray for me if you wanna help - just send me a check. * Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crewkeith 0 #93 January 2, 2010 that is something i train for every day. hope he. or someone else, tries. i just hope i don't save your life by accident some day. oh wait you wouldn't allow your self into a situation like that would you. you probably avoid bad places where crime is likely. hence you dont see the need for guns. nice beige volvo in the garage? house in the suburbs? stay in dreamland pal. leave the real world for the people that have the balls for it. as far as believing my little story, i could actually give a flying fuck what you believe. you can take your facts and figures and shove those up your ass. the point i was making is people seldom report shit like that but the murders and assaults make front page news. just like skydiving never see anything like "10000 skydives made today with no injuries" but shit like one skydiver frapping in makes world news. we probably shouldn't ever be on the same plane load .The skies are no longer safe I'm back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

georgerussia 0 #99 January 2, 2010 Quote I don't have to provide any evidence - YOU made the assertion that the robber wasn't going to kill him. Prove your claim or withdraw it. No, sir. My assertion is just my opinion based on the story we were told. So far I did not see any evidence which would make it invalid, so I see no reason to withdraw it. If you don't believe it, it's up to you. If you, however, believe that nothing should be written here unless proven by facts and research, I suggest you start do it yourself first, and only then demand this from others. You know, the "personal responsibility" thing. Quote You made the assertion that someone with a knife couldn't kill three people in reasonable shape. Prove your claim, or withdraw it. I'll repeat: you do not see a difference between a civil war, and your regular murderer, don't you?

Quote Which is EXACTLY what you have done both in this thread and the other gun thread. Ron, myself and others HAVE provided info - you're provided Yuri Orloff fantasies and surmises. Exactly.
