Bernie Sanders is surprisingly pro-gun

Several issues with the video above. First, the case study in the beginning took place in Illinois (where guns were illegal to carry up to very recently). That didn't stop the gunman killing 5 people.
Second, the video states "this training is already more than many states require in order to carry a firearm." While statistically true, the fact is that almost everyone who carries a firearm takes additional training, including practicing with it on a regular occasion. I train with a firearm once every two weeks for 4 hours - tactical drills, reloading, controlling breathing, CQC, etc.
Then they put a kid with a firearm and a long shirt in an experiment and automatically assume everyone will have the failings of the kid (who only practiced during the training provided in this demonstration). Laf. The instructor coming in also knew to shoot "Joey" because he was armed. That wouldn't happen in real life.
Next, when Danielle goes, she shoots the intruder (despite poor posture and standing up). If this were a real situation, the shooter would be DOWN. Without that weapon, the shooter could reload and continue his rampage. Again, they knew to attack her. Same with the third guy - they went for the guy with the gun. In a classroom setting, they're not going to know who has the gun.
At the end of the day, you can spew all the propaganda you want, but having a weapon is better for defense than no weapon at all.
And let's remember, YOU have no idea how to get all the illegal weapons off the street - which is the only way you're going to stop the shootings.

It's politics and religion. Trading isn't necessary for this forum (though I've posted trades and shot that BS of yours down before).
When you can't debate the topic, throw out the old "never post a trade" line, right Jimmy?
That was a favorite tactic of the Canton Cretin's.
No idea who those guys are.

I don't post every trade I make, but I've already given you the link to the thread on trading I've made. Lists out several trades, and they were profitable. Would you like the link once more since you have a hard time paying attention?
You could always dazzle us by providing your trading journal.

Give us a month of your trades. No cherry picking, every trade every trade, for a month.
