It’s reassuring to review 2020 and realize that our once and future president is actually completely committed to the rule of law and has the wisdom to condemn those who indulge in political violence, even if they do so in his name.

@KgdlBrown97 @fayewraykim1 Hi, Kari. It's so distressing to me to see how divided our country is today. I can't understand how you can believe this about a city in the US, and I'm sure you can't understand how I can be so naive. How do we bridge the gap?

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ScottintheFalls @MistaGamerVet Thanks, Scott. I'll send it out tomorrow.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ecro77 @WhiteW0rld After reading up some, realize I don't know enough yet about the term assault rifle to be using it. Please don't write me off, I would really like to keep talking to you all.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ScottintheFalls @MistaGamerVet Scott, not much experience with Twitter. Talking with several people about guns, overwhelmed, want to consolidate. Can't add you to group message. Am I doing something wrong?

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@WhiteW0rld @ecro77 But Charles, who is talking about doing away with the 2nd Amendment? There have to be some controls on the ownership of weapons, don't there? Should we be able to own hand grenades, bombs?

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ecro77 @WhiteW0rld No, but to receive a driver's license, you have to take tests that show you understand how and CAN drive a car safely. Plus, cars are for getting around - guns are for killing; assault rifles, for killing people. Shouldn't laws for guns be much more stringent than those for cars?

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ScottintheFalls @MistaGamerVet Hi, Scott. You're right. I'll send you my reply to another person who called me on that.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@WhiteW0rld @ecro77 Hi, Charles. Thanks for explaining. I also don't understand why anyone would want to own one of these guns. There only purpose is to kill a lot of people quickly, isn't it? I don't want to judge - I want to understand.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ecro77 @WhiteW0rld Hello, I Am. Where are people calling for the death of the NRA, Republicans, and the 2nd Amendment? That's terrible. I will speak out against it if you show me where.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@WhiteW0rld @ecro77 I don't understand what you mean by "banning guns because of their color," Charles.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ScottintheFalls @MistaGamerVet Ok, Scotty. So I'm thick, because I don't understand the logic behind your statements. Would you say more?

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@Corduroyalist I obviously do believe our gun laws should be more restrictive, but like to engage with people who disagree with me (though I haven't used Twitter much).

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@Corduroyalist I apologize. I guess you took my joking about your name Heartless Old Turkey (which I'm sure is a joke) as implying all that. I promise you that was not my intent. I didn't even know you own a weapon and see nothing wrong with owning one. Please forgive me.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ecro77 @WhiteW0rld Still hounding you, Hound: The Sandy Hook killer was 20, got guns from mother, who owned a dozen firearms. Last, not least, the Los Vegas killer had 23 guns in his hotel room and 19 more at home, all bought legally, I believe

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@ecro77 @WhiteW0rld Hound, you're making me do too much work (research to back up my position): Parkland shooter is only 19. The Columbine killers were 18 and 19. Their guns were bought at a gun show from an unlicensed seller who did not have to run a background check.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@Corduroyalist Hi, Turkey. I hope my tweets aren't part of what made you so mad. It wasn't my intent. Different victims react differently, of course. I didn't mean to apply that all end up believing as I do. I hope we can agree to disagree.

[Ben Armfield @benarmfield]

@Corduroyalist @fayewraykim1 @MistaGamerVet Hey, Turkey - Ha! But you're heartless. Just kidding. But seriously, the victims/relatives of a lot of mass shootings have become some of the most outspoken advocates of gun control.

@KgdlBrown97 @fayewraykim1 Hi, Kari. I mean you no disrespect, but it IS a joke: https://t.co/VeH8cFFdq3
