Actually, there's a difference between calling someone an ass and shooting them.

Duh, but it's a legitimate analogy. :P

Actually, there's a difference between calling someone an ass and shooting them.

The result is different, but the chain of reasoning is the same.

[rabbit]

Not really...
Someone is an ass -> "You're an ass"
X -> "Pull trigger"

or

You're being an ass -> I'm going to call you an ass
would require
You're being shot -> I'm going to shoot you
to have a parallel set of logic.

Like rabbit sort of said, if somebody really is an ass and you call them an ass, that isn't (and can't be) parallel to shooting somebody.

Rabbit said "It's not my fault X because you Y"
X can be "insult you" if Y is "are an ass"

X can be "shoot you" if Y is "are an ass"



Same difference





p.s. Then he goes on saying that it is whomever's responsibility to stop him from X ... just as MyndFyre said about bullet/gun companies

CrAz3D is absolutely right, except replace "right" with "wrong".  It's not at all alike.

Sure little Bunny, say whatever you need to make yourself feel better ;)

You're all missing the point. You can argue this little shit back and fourth all you want, or you can look at the bottom line I outlined in my posts.

Justifying something off topic, still makes you wrong.

[CrAz3D]

I'll justify you all night long, baby.

Okay, stop going off-topic in a serious thread, people.
