Not saying you're deceiving but can you show me where a state has made a book about bombs illegal? It seems like that would be a slam dunk 1A violation. And yes I'm aware that states willfully violate 2A but I don't want to discuss it here.

Not saying you cannot read, but if you would, the other answer to my comment literally has such an example.

Germany is like this as well since a few years.

Not all states are within the US.

you're not saying I cannot read, but that type of inflection is uncalled for. You have been reported to the mods.

Uncalled for?

"Not saying you're deceiving"

Right next to your answer were you implied I might be deceiving was already an answer telling apparently I was not deceiving. So yes, the mocking of my comment was not up to HN standards, but you don't see how you started it?

I think you're each setting the other off and being a bit overreactive to each other's comments, and I think there may be a misunderstanding of the other's intent. We still need to make an effort to observe the guidelines even if a reply to us comment seems hostile. Sometimes it's best to just to stop.

Indeed. Actually I did not try to attack. My intention was showing mild irony to something I perceived as an attack.

Those nuances easily get lost in text, I know, but that my post got flagged and his initial one did not, I really did not liked and that angered me a bit. But I can live with that, without making a drama out of it. Thanks for trying to mediate.

Thanks for being good about it. I've turned off the flags on that comment.
