16. I'll bet they did
"let's exploit someone else's victimization to exalt our own self-interest"
...I assume you're referring to all those stories of crimes and accidents related to firearms.

Do you then? And what interest of mine is served there?

The one where I prefer not to have kids and other people gunned down on the streets of my cities?

Damn me for a selfish hog.

Ironically, many good progressives work very hard to defend my reproductive rights were I ever to be the victim of rape; yet, they fail to recognize my right to resist that rapist in the first place.

There's no irony in a false statement, pet.


Some people abuse free speech but that doesn't diminish my right to speak freely.

Jeez I wish you people would learn to talk sense.

How do I abuse a right, if I'm of a mind to? Beat it senseless? Kinda the way you're beating the language here?
