    It would indicate you have done passing research on what you are talking about. If people are messing up basic terminology I would be concerned they have a poor understanding of the subject. The same way Trump spoke about stuff with incorrect language showed his ignorance.

      Why do you need to research the name of a specific gun to understand gun safety? How does not knowing what the initials of one single gun stand for show you have a poor understanding of the subject? Do you have to be familiar with every gun out there to understand gun safety? In that case, don’t let anyone buy a gun until they’ve used every model and knows each one intimately. Otherwise it won’t be safe.

        It’s one of the most prolific gun platforms ever. It would be like trying to regulate trucks without knowing the F-150 is made by Ford. It shows ignorance of the subject, which isn’t what you want if you’re looking to express an opinion. It’s not that deep.

          You are moving the goalposts. We weren’t talking about regulation. We were talking about gun safety.

          The claim you made was this:

          I would be concerned for your knowledge of gun safety if you didn’t know this too. She’s a lunatic, but she has a point.

          Can you please explain to me how gun safety was taught before the AR-15 was invented despite the lack of this necessary component?

              It’s strange that you demand such precision regarding gun specific terminology but your rigorousness disappears immediately when it comes to using terms like regulate and ban correctly. Perhaps until you can use those terms correctly you should remove yourself from any topics concerning them.

              Again, regulation is not the same as banning. I have no idea why you would think it is. And this conversation you butted into was about gun safety. I literally pasted what started the conversation.

                  Oh, you’re done lying and insulting? You want to have a discussion now? Because if you want me to answer that or any other question, at the very least you could do was own your bullshit lie when you claimed I thought the AR-15 was more dangerous than other guns or your other bullshit lie that I wanted to ban all guns… and failing that, you could apologize for saying I supported the fucking Taliban.
