Google is dead to me - Page 2

Ibby · 07-11-2012, 03:52 PM

thats not how google marketplace works, stormie. at all.
if i search for "online gun retail" in a normal google search it WILL show me the results for all online gun retailers it can find.
but in the google shopping site, its not an index, and its not a site like amazon - its more like eBay retailers or 3rd-party retailers who sell THROUGH amazon.

I've shopped through Google many, many times. It's just a list of vendors who sell the item you are looking for. You can even filter it down to local stores only ("in stock nearby"), then walk out your door and pay for it/pick it up. I've bought from Best Buy that way several times...via Google shopping.

You do not buy through Google. You click thru to the vendor's site and buy directly from them.

Everybody should be buying their guns from individuals in back allies behind gun shows, anyway. That way you can avoid registering your weapon(s). Why make it easy for homeland security or some other government entity to confiscate the weapons of the citizenry? (And no, I don't live in northern Idaho - I just have a healthy mistrust of the government)

I'd bet both of my balls that any business located near a "gun store" would be a pretty safe business. Gun stores, and the stores near them are hardly ever the target of criminals.

Which has more crime taking place, Wal-mart, Dollar General Store (where I have to ask to be handed my soap from behind a locked cabinet, by a manager, when I'm ready to check out, because it's one of the most stolen items in the store) or your local gun store?

define "more crime"

Barclay's Bank just paid a $450 million dollar settlement for gaming the system that sets interest rates for the whole world.

the speed limit on the street (an arterial) fifty feet from my house is 30 mph. I can guarantee 20 crimes in 15 minutes, depending on the time of day.

now I don't shop at wal-mart mostly on general principles but also because they're not around here. I am pretty cool with dollar general (I am a cheap bastard) but I don't know where the closest one of those is either. And I can count the number of times I've been in a gun shop on one hand. I just don't have enough experience to give a confident answer to your question.

But I bet you're imagining that a store full of guns is less likely to suffer an armed robbery (or shoplifting for that matter) than a general merchandise discount store. I'd buy that.

what's your point?

I buy all my guns from a guy in a raincoat.

I like him. He calls me 'Bub' & 'Mac'.

then hit shopping and you get ...

BigV · 07-11-2012, 09:13 PM

UG, you're wrong.

I don't have a gun in the house and I don't fear genocide.

...

I would bet lunch that you have one or more guns in the house and that genocide occupies a goodly portion of your waking moments, and not all of them reveling in your purported ability to turn back a genocidal attack.

(that's actually kinda hard to type with a straight face. you don't really believe everything that you post, do you?)

Happy Monkey · 07-11-2012, 09:28 PM

It certainly doesn't seem like anyone else I've run into on the Cellar fears genocide quite as much as UG.

classicman · 07-11-2012, 10:17 PM

Remington and Browning stay in my house. I think very little about genocide.

BigV · 07-11-2012, 10:29 PM

those little thoughts... are they fearful ones?

classicman · 07-11-2012, 10:33 PM

Nope, not at all. I'm rather confident actually.
I can get my gun & have it loaded before "you" can make it upstairs.
I am simply prepared should all other options fail.
