Does eliminating this iconic symbol achieve anything? (or What's this world coming to?)
The Flea Market was on privately owned property. If the market was on public/city owned land, it actually IS illegal to sell hate items like that. Sorry if my beliefs aren't in line with yours, but that doesn't mean I'm part of the problem. Maybe THAT'S the problem. Settle down, man. I've got no beef with you.

Does eliminating this iconic symbol achieve anything? (or What's this world coming to?)
Newtonian has invoked Godwin's Law. Sheesh! So you're saying it's okay to sell Nazi paraphernalia? And if we live in this great country, aren't we free to complain about it if we want to? I'm sorry, but why would anyone sell this stuff, other than to propagate hate? Is there any other reason to own Nazi flags and symbols? Unless you're one to do WWII re-enactment like some that do that for the Civil War. If I saw a kiosk selling Swastikas and other Nazi tchotchkes, I think it would make me VERY nervous. Truth be told. we DON'T live in a country where you can openly sell those kinds of things without some level of scrutiny. And that's a bad thing???

I love the USA. Where we can debate such a clearly polarized topic freely and openly. Regardless of my personal feelings on the topic, if the people of SC vote to have the flag removed, so be it. If stores want to remove this item from their shelves, this is the USA and they have no obligation to sell this item if they don't want to. If you want to be able to buy one, I'm sure you can find it for sale somewhere. You are even free to display it if you want. That is a calculated risk you can try out.

Need gun/crime statistics
I took a look at this site and it is certainly interesting. I find their "facts" a little erroneous. I'm trying to find where a read that the statistic about gun owning citizens preventing 2.4 million crimes a year is a big pile of BS. There is no way that is true, and constantly quoting that on that website makes the other stats seem illegitimate, even if they are true.

Cherry picking at it's finest. Statistics can say anything you want them to say if you dig deep enough. It's also a matter of causality. I had a heart attack and I drink lots of water. Damn it!!! Water causes heart attacks!!!!

I happen to agree with you 100%.

Some would say you don't need a fire arm to satisfy that argument.

I'm not questioning your beliefs at all. I'm questioning the place they have on these forums and in this discussion.

Mental Health questions
Errr, I know MANY people on not one med. MANY. It's a conspiracy theory UNTIL it's proven to be true. Good luck with that. With that, I'm done. No reason to continue this convo.

Mental Health questions
The five pills a day I take keep me alive. If it weren't for them, I would have stroked out long ago and not been able to continue to watch my children grow up. Bad genetics are a real bitch. I like how you think you know what mental illness is and have the expertise to give any advice to anyone on the matter. Keep up those conspiracy theories, though. Meds only exist to make money off people. They don't help anyone. Just like guns only exist to give criminals weapons. Please.

Mental Health questions
LOL, I can't imagine you don't realize how dangerous what you are doing can be. Don't give out medical advice. You are causing more harm than you realize by trying to be a friend in this situation.

Mental Health questions
Wow, so I guess doctors aren't looking out for the well being of their patients just to make the insurance companies and pharm companies money. Is that it? And if your friend actually has a mental health issue? Let's forget about that for a moment.Oh wait! Let's not, as he's trying to get a permit to purchase a fire arm!!!

Mental Health questions
No they don't. That's also illegal. There are some that have, but most know that they won't risk their livelihood for a few extra bucks.

Mental Health questions
Thanks. You were alluding to the fact the only reason your friend got the meds was so that his doctors could make money off of him. Whether that is true or not, you aren't a doctor and have no earthly idea whether your friend needs them or not medically. Do you actually have proof of this? Was your friend's doctors in one those articles you posted?

Mental Health questions
Yes, please. Arrested or charged doesn't mean convicted. Innocent until proven guilty? One hundred doctors vs. the tens of thousands of doctors in this country, right? Kind of like what people think about us gun people? A few bad apples, so we're all bad. Is that what you're saying? I'm not here to change your mind. I'm arguing your claim to make a point.
