The weakest argument for gun ownership in the USA

[Reverend Joe]

CR, would you mind terribly taking up the fight against the Tribescoat? I really have no idea how to redress his claims. They're just... bizarre... and very smiley infected.

Edit: wait, let me try...

That is one aspect of it . Since the Americans relied on French weapon supplies French money French troops the French navy French political power and prettty much all things French .
Well , apart from the Northwestern campaigh which was reliant on Spanish support .

No. We greatly benefitted from French loans and gunpowder, but the rest... no. The French navy wasn't very successful, their troops didn't do doodley-squat and French political power was only helpful in keeping France from getting invaded because other European countries declared they would support France in the case of an invasion. The Americans did all the fighting and, as CR pointed out, the fact that they fought for so long, and with such surprising success (although not exactly stellar) was the key to their victory, as they proved themselves able to defeat Britain in the long term.

Well done you got something right , though of course the French were stopping the British from getting those supplies wasn't they
Actually looking at that post you made you seem to contradict yourself a hell of a lot , but I suppose thats normal when you are trying to defend mythical history

No, the French were not that successful. Read a book. And I'm not being contradictory; now you're just making stuff up.

No that isn't the arguement.

Well then, thanks for wasting my time.
