[Straw Man]

I'm not doing the NRA dance. I know the dance because the pattern is repetative

so I would be a patsy if I participated.

You were a patsy straight out of the gate, but for the other side.

The "multiple round automatic gun clip" is a hyperbolic creation not unlike the "shoulder thing that goes up." In other words, it is a verbal embodiment of fear and loathing that has no real-world referent. "Clip" vs. "magazine" is insignificant here, but "multiple round"? It wouldn't be much of a magazine if it only held one round. And is it the "clip" or the "gun" that is automatic? Neither, I presume: there is no such thing as an "automatic clip," and with exception of the North Hollywood shootout, automatic weapons haven't figured in crime since the days of Clyde Barrow and John Dillinger. Perhaps you mean "semi-automatic," which refers to a technology that has existed for over 100 years and is the most common type of civilian-owned firearm.

In short, you have no idea what you're talking about. Then, when you get called on it, you bleat about the "NRA dance" as if you're somehow morally superior. Sadly, this kind of pride in ignorance is not uncommon in the gun-control community.

Next time you see Edina, give her my regards.
