You're super sad and still wrong a gently caress. I'm also an NIH research fellow (F series award), I bet your ego is too fragile to allow for that to be possibly true too. Let's recap: 1. You said something that was factually, demonstrably wrong (literally first page of google results: http://www.ph.ucla.edu/epi/bioter/anthraxasweapon.html) quote:Anthrax powder 2. I told you that you were wrong and you said "No" 3. I told you that you were definitely wrong and I am far more qualified to make this statement than you, unless you happen to already have a PhD in microbiology, in which case I might defer to your expertise, but you don't, which is obvious 4. You get super butthurt and just say "Oh your degrees must be fake" which is basically the Trump move for "I am deeply incorrect and insecure about my own knowledge and intelligence," which is understandable after what you have demonstrated here 5.

Dolphin posted:I like how you specifically picked the result that you liked, and the fact that the qualifier "large quantities for large scale weapons purposes" didn't clue you into the fact that you're wrong. Anthrax is weaponized by harvesting, concentrating, and aerosolizing large quantities of its spores. That's what makes it a weapon. If you have 5 anthrax spores that you found in a pile of dirt, you do not have a weapon. The purification and processing of the spores is not possible without substantial education (more than a bachelors) and resources. This is why the only successful use of weaponized anthrax by a domestic terrorist in the US was by a guy who worked at the Fort Detrick biodefense labs and who stole it from work. Also, yes, my two year NIH fellowship and four years of combined MD-PhD training do count as formal education. Very comfortable saying I am better educated than you are.

A Whataboutism is a scapegoat for an action by calling attention to another action that someone else did, not a thread derail No you're totally right, it wasn't a whataboutism. It was just a really loving stupidly structured argument that makes gun control advocates look bad Doubling down and arguing with a couple of bio major goons with actual relevant experience to what you were arguing was really loving stupid, too. If you wanna know why the thread started yelling at you, it's because you made a poo poo argument and then doubled down on it, even if most of us might agree with the point you were going for.

Sure, if you don't care about such trivial things as "hitting targets more than a few feet away" or "not blowing your hand off". Otherwise, you'd need one of the 3D printers that can print in metal, which tend to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and involve equipment not easily miniaturized into a hobbyist-level machine. quote:Banning guns in my mind is a sort of band aid that ignores the problems in our society, and my biggest worry specifically with banning or trying to reduce gun ownership through legislation would be that the other aspects are ignored because politicians and also a lot of the population in the US are lazy and like to pat themselves on the back and go "Oh we did a thing, look at us, vote for us, yay!" and ignore real problems. Just look at the ACA for a really good example of politicians doing a thing that was partly good and then being like "Yep, we did it we're done!" meanwhile healthcare in the US is still complete garbage and people are still going into forever debt just for hitting up the emergency room when they have no other options. Or how the vast majority of gun control these days is focused around whatever was used in the last mass shooting to make headlines, never mind that such incidents make up a tiny percentage of overall homicide (most gun crime is committed with plain old handguns).

Aren’t handguns banned in the UK? Also new gun control these days isn’t focused around poo poo because it does not exist in the US. I think you mean “what people talk about doing and then not doing.”

Historically speaking humans have been terrified of loud noises since the dawn of time, so much so that they invented gods to assuage their fears. The louder and more terrifying the noise, the more powerful the gods, that’s how Zeus got in charge. But then when the humans got the ability to make loud noises, the nuttiest of them started feeling like gods and developed a huge superiority complex linked to their noisemakers. But their feeling of godhood and superiority because they’re able to make loud noises is as misplaced as the god-worship of their foreparents, and actually places them on the same intellectual level as literal cave-dwellers.
