for any unbiased research? Or, are they only supporting research that confirms their views?

He knows what you mean... ellisonz Jun 2012 #24
I know what he means, as well. Unfortunately for both of you- he's wrong. See post #27 friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #28
Yeah ellisonz! You're wrong! It says so on guncite.com!!!!! DanTex Jun 2012 #29
The genetic fallacy again, eh? It doesn't matter where it was posted, he's still wrong. friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #36
Of course it matters where information comes from. Guncite is a propaganda site. DanTex Jun 2012 #37
And you've yet to prove me wrong. I admit Kopsch's testimony is hearsay... friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #38
And you've yet to prove yourself right... DanTex Jun 2012 #39
There still are plenty of bullets available that will penetrate body armor- rifle bullets. friendly_iconoclast Jun 2012 #40
I don't know if what you are saying about the Biaggio bill is true. DanTex Jun 2012 #42

Yes! Do you think that valid points will stop being made because you express displeasure? TPaine7 Jun 2012 #18
I get it. You're going ignore everything I said! Nice! DanTex Jun 2012 #20

Yawn... TPaine7 Jun 2012 #31
I wish he would ignore this whole group. He has already done me the favor of ignoring me and life Tuesday Afternoon Jun 2012 #45
I addressed your strongest points; I ignored your irrelevant points. TPaine7 Jun 2012 #30
