Only 7%? Yeah there are a lot of people 100% lying.

Yeah it all depends on the wording and how honest they are. Sometimes I’m frustrated enough to get all sorts of dark thought to inflict on them. But I have impulse control.

One of the reasons we need better gun control is too many people don’t. Or maybe too many people live in fear enough to escalate to deadly violence

Mm, you can fixate on killing someone without using a gun.

You could use a knife, a rope, poison, there are any number of things you can use to kill someone.

Maybe that 93% just very specifically envisions harming others without guns!

Lol no, many of them are lying.

Woodchipper, car bomb, garbage compactor, fire, a single large rock, multiple smaller rocks, open windows, closed windows and some force... The list goes on and on

Update:

  • drum of boiling water
  • large cat exhibit at the zoo
  • thrown from a highway bridge
  • snake pit
  • drowning in a cesspool
  • explosive butt plug
  • fire ant
  • flying with Tom Hanks in a movie

A bit exotic perhaps, but strapped to a rocket and hurled at a building.

I choose butt plug, what do I win!?
