What is the motivation...........

.........that compels people to attend major league football games at a stadium in their thousands?

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

so your motivation in starting this thread and attempting to convince others the game of football is violent and dangerous based on your opinion and no facts was entirely sef serving, your means of proving owning a gun was not dangerous then.

I'd say that was a resounding fail.

There is one major difference, My firearms are locked in a steel safe bolted to the concrete floor to which only I have a key, the magazine and ammunition is locked in yet another separate secure metal locked container also bolted to the concrete floor to which only I have a key. That is a requirement under the firearms act, to which I and other licenced firearms owners strictly adhere.

 

Does your husband lock up his potentially lethal golf clubs

 

By the way lets chat about very sharp 200mm ling kitchen knives they are a potentially lethal item as well, do you lock those up?

In fact even very small children can gain access to those.

 

And now lets get a bit over the top.

What about that frozen leg of lamb in the freezer that is equally lethal and can be utilised to bludgeon someone to death, and then eaten so that there is no murder weapon.

 

The difference is that firearms, when misused, have been demonised as have the owners even though they are licensed and in compliance with the requirements of the law.

hahahaha Rosie, the same can be said for most posters here, some could bore others to death or poison them with their vitriol or shower them with fire and brimstone or drive their intestines into their cerebral cavity to strangle their own brain to get away from having to read endless repetition and stupidity.

Pepe, research the statistics of serious injury and death attributed to football. 🙂

Of course I can, and what makes you think differently?

The 22 on the field are getting exercise but what of the thousands of others who sit or stand and watch?

 

That was my question , what motivates them?

 

The chance if seeing an injury or death perhaps?


Of course not, they are there to watch a game..
