      That’s certainly one way to weasel out of the uncomfortable truth that statistics about owning any consumer good over a broad population in a capitalist system is not evenly distributed.

        You’re the one who doesn’t want to engage, you can’t then claim I’m “weaseling out.” You’ve put forth no counter argument to argue further, this is your doing not mine, I’m just refusing to play your silly game.

          I’m engaging with you this entire time and “that is not an even distribution” is literally a counter-argument. You just don’t like it.

            If it helps to use the 8% verifiable “CCW holders” then fine, there’s still a low likelihood that any given person there has a gun to respond. The fact that you don’t believe in “probability” isn’t really my issue, everyone else understands it just fine.

              Are you “refusing to play my silly game” or are you accepting that I am engaging with you and making a counter-argument and will continue to discuss this with me?

              Because it can’t be both.

                I’m refusing to play by reiterating my original point and elaborating on said silly game of “nuh uh estimations and mathematical probability are fake news.” Check your house for gas leaks.

                  And now that you’ve decided to hurl insults, we’re done here.

                  Incidentally, a gas leak is one of the options I’m looking into in four to five years depending on the laws in Canada or certain other countries. Shall I let you know?

                    We’ve been done, you just refuse to shut up when someone politely declines your silly bullshit lol.

                    “Depending on the laws…” is it only legal to kill yourself or others with a gas leak in Canada? You planning on starting a gas leak? Not sure I want to know what you mean by that weird ass sentence but if you’re experiencing suicidal or homicidal ideation of some sort please seek help, it’s never the option you should take. I don’t like you and don’t let me know, but someone does I’m sure and I hope you get the help you need.
