You've convinced me to start carrying, heck think how one day I might just save you because you changed my mind? You might be walking back home late at night when some miscreant in a black hoody presses his piece into your back, and I'd see you being held up across the street. You'd know you couldn't trust him with your wallet, but you could trust me with your life. Just imagine how safe you'd feel with me pointing a gun over at you, ready to be your hero.

Not that implausible, his 2007 Grand Am might break down causing him to grab his checkbook and head to the nearest garage on foot. People still walk occasionally in San Diego, it's not LA...yet.

Straight. **** off and let me post. It's not true, it's all in good fun. Now go away.

The formulation you're trying to use doesn't fit since it's not a choice. It's a progression.

No, it's a progression leading to a choice.

Sure. But that progression is what makes it a Slippery Slope Fallacy. The fallacy is the false equivalence between banning guns and chopping off people's hands. The fact that there's also an implied choice between either not imposing gun control or chopping off people's hands is secondary.

You're wrong.

Except that I'm not.

It's ok, no one considers you an expert in logic.

What you consider me apparently has no bearing on reality in this case though.

Bearing on? The phrase you're looking for is "basis in". Wrong again, Skippy.

Please commence the argument that what you meant was that what I consider you doesn't actually alter reality. Feel free to ignore the fact that "in this case though" makes no sense then.

You're wrong, Smash. gbaji is the greatest writer of all time according to other sites he won't cite.
