> I’d be glad to have an actual debate - and have in prior threads. Just not with **Elvis**. That would be as productive as having a debate with the crazy person muttering to himself on the bus. Like I said, his feigned concern over perceived credibility is a poorly crafted ruse. People who support the RKBA don’t care what people like \*\*Elvis \*\*and other hoplophobes think. At all. His opinions are like…lint. Feel free to take a poll, it could be, “Do people who self identify as supporters of the 2nd amendment and the RKBA care what \*\*Elvis \*\*thinks?” But for the sake of other readers who may see his ideas and think they go unchallenged - that’s the only reason at all to respond.

Bone, that’s really over the line. That’s attacking the poster and not the argument. Don’t do this again.

Warning issued.

However, bonus points for use of the world hoplophobe.
