In my opinion, this guy is an irresponsible idiot. It would almost be

So you dont like guns eh?

I am quite indifferent. I don't know much about them, but I do know
how dangerous they are.

So how dangerous are they, really?

I do, however, know a bit about remote controlled helicopters. I have
flown them for nearly 20 years, so I have seen and experienced many
ways in which they can go wrong. I believe this gives me enough
background to decide whether or not it is a good idea to strap a
firearm to one.

So while you know much about helicopters (toys)...your ignorance..self
admitted of firearms leads you to believe that this is a Bad Thing?

Sorry to hear that.

Why sorry? I have met lots of people who have no interest in neither
helicopters nor metalworking, but I have never felt sorry in any way
about that. They have their interests, and I have mine. That's just
the way it should be.


And if those same people stated that Lathes are so dangerous that they
should suck in their operators....you would be fine with that.?

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in
liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support
to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that
would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked
passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us
today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement,
reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit
the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"
