[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 658549, member: 60724"] RichardL, I assumed RShek was being sarcastic with regards to giving his daughter of 5 a gun. Such sarcasm is a commonly employed by people when they debate a position with someone that they think holds their behavior or believe in contempt. For example, I might be debating abortion with someone whom (taking the anti side for the sake of argument) and they rebutt by saying "Oh yeah, well I actually prefer abortion to birth control and since it's my right, so what?" I actually find it insulting and counter productive as it positions some absurd example as a rebuttal in an attempt to say in a snide way "of course I don't carry my beliefs to the extreme". I find it counter productive as it never really gets to the root of what the responding person really thinks, or means or what motivates their actions. Still, if R Shek wants to give his 5yo a gun...he is the parent. It would be child endangerment, of course, and he could lose the child. (R Shek, I know you were kidding). TJR [/QUOTE]
