“I said, ‘Dad, I have to go, if this is the last time we talk, I love you,’” Henderson recalled. “I lost my mom a few years ago, so my dad is like my lifeline. Just saying goodbye to him was tough.”

      yeah you shouldn’t walk in front of traffic either? I’m not sure how this is much of a comeback.

        If I posted, “you should fear cars. Isn’t that the first rule of car ownership?” under and article about truck stampeding protesters, most would call it absurd. Try to understand logical consistency.

        You said the first thing individuals are taught is to fear firearms when learning to use them, which is patently false.

        Learning to use a firearm isn’t storming the beaches of Normandy, just as learning to use a car doesn’t require an individual to leg it across a highway. Pertaining to an ordinary setting, the only similarity is using a tool, you confuse fear for respect.

          but that isn’t the first rule of car ownership, it doesn’t make any sense.

          It does make sense to say that “the gun is always loaded” and “only point it at things you intend to destroy” which is where I was coming from.
