Advice Columnist Suggests Kicking Out Gun Owning Daughter

Ask Amy: My daughter lives with me and owns a gun. Can I kick her out?

I don't know if this Amy person is a nationally syndicated columnist or a just a local one, but the advice absolutely crazy.

Holophobe father says that his otherwise, smart, healthy, hard-working 24-year old daughter who lives with him owns a .40 caliber pistol. You know, the type of gun only a criminal would have (father's words) and has (horror of horros) a hollow-point bullets to go with it! Says he told her to either give up the gun or move out in three weeks and the advice columnist agrees!

If it were my daughter I might chastise her for not getting a 9mm but otherwise I'd be sure we'd go to the range and train together. Hell I might even offer to buy her next one!

 

My gosh....


“According to my research, possessing hollow-point bullets is illegal in 11 states; is it legal in your state to own this sort of exploding ammunition?“

 

With a so called “father” like that she would be better off out on her own.

 

I wonder if she tells people to kick their kids out if they don't agree politically, or if they don't agree on the kid's sexual orientation?

 

Apparently dad doesn't appreciate a pro-choice, self empowered woman who believes in equality. Worse news dad, you live in a state where she probably has HIGH CAPACITY MAGAZINES.



Stupid journalist, exercised her 1st Amendment rights and missed her opportunity to practice her 5th Amendment. Hope she gets trolled.

 

ALL Gossip columnists live vicariously through other peoples lives.

 

lock your doors, lock your doors. yeah cuz who know what she will do at night with hat EXPLODING AMMUNITION that is illegal in 11 states!!! my god.

pay for her to take a training class so she can know how to properly handle it and use it in case. but no..lets just kick her out!! that'll be getter FOR ME...that'll teach her!! way to go Dad ....NOT!!

its her choice she chose...dont condemn her for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I think the author is really Joe Biden using a nom de plume, his 24 year old daughter is afraid of him.

 

Because columnist people are wiser then anyone else lmao.

 

Excellent take down of the advice column here:

Gun Advice from the Worst Column Ever | National Review

I agree 100% with the guy from national review. How on earth could a guy state that he had to lock his door now that his daughter has a gun? Does the gun turn otherwise normal people into homicidal maniacs? Great parenting job if a simple purchase makes a person go from sweet and innocent to potential murderer overnight.

The daughter should shoot him for being so irrationally stupid.

 

All the daughter has to ask the father is "How do I protect myself from rape or bodily harm from someone that can overpower me daddy?"

 

I call shenanigans on that column. Pure BS.

 

Blow your rape whistle and wet yourself, sweetie.

 

My feeling was that the “Dad” was a smart-assed troll just screwing with the columnist.
He used lots of the popular buzz words.

Either that or he’s just a colossal pussy.

 

Or, more likely it was a completely fictitious story concocted by the columnist to stir her / his /it’s readers.

 

Yeah, I call troll (or made up by the columnist) on this.

"There have only been two home invasions in our neighborhood in the last 11 years."



Then again, "According to my research, possessing hollow-point bullets is illegal in 11 states; is it legal in your state to own this sort of exploding ammunition?" You would think if dear old Amy had actually done any research she would know the answer to this question.

 

That dumb*** was on my phone's homepage and I stupidly clicked on it and read it. She is syndicated, I believe. I think it sounded like a typical female, uneducated on firearms, response. Someone who looked up a stat or two to make herself sound like she knew something. It did not work.

 

I'm single .. she can bring all the guns she wants too ..

 

"There have only been two home invasions in our neighborhood in the last 11 years."

Even if the above were true (which I doubt!!), does that mean there will never be a 3rd home invasion?? AND, God forbid if she were to ever leave the house!!

 

In my opinion, I dont buy this as a valid letter. This is a set up, just to disseminate a little more false information, just to get it in print, and give it a life of its own. I mean come on, “exploding ammunition”. Really.

 

Sorry but 2 home invasions is still a fucking lot in one neighborhood

 

There's just SO MUCH STUPID in that piece of shit letter and response I can't possibly fathom it is legit.

I call, fabricated by Shannon Watts and company.

 

This week, I discovered that my intelligent, hard-working, responsible 24-year-old daughter (who lives with me) is a gun owner! And it’s not a normal gun, either — it is a 40-caliber semi-automatic, and she has hollow-point bullets to go with it.

Amy, this is the kind of weapon a criminal would possess! Uh, actually it's the kind of weapon that law abiding gun owners, all branches of our armed forces, and law enforcement would posses. You know, all the same people who are the good guys and not the criminals? Maybe youd feel better in your safe space if she carried a flintlock pistol? She says it is for emergencies. There have only been two home invasions in our neighborhood in the last 11 years. Tell you what, if that is true you'd better be thanking your lucky stars she owns a gun and buying her whatever ammo she wants, in whatever volume she requests.
I’ve given her three choices: She can either give her weapon to me this would be my suggestion so that you could be arrested and charged and then truly be a criminal that possesses such weapons, sell it sure, if you give me no less than double the market value or move out in three weeks. I dont think I'd even let you get the words out before my shit was gone and the double strips of tire marks were still smouldering in the driveway.

I love my daughter and would be so sad for her to move into a place that she would hardly be able to afford, maybe if you were better parents she'd be able to afford her own place at the pubescent age of 24 but now I have to lock my bedroom door at night because I don’t know what she’s going to do. If I were her I'd lock MY bedroom door because obviously you're the irrational and unstable one. I'd she wanted to "do" anything, she'd probably have done it by now and if she was intelligent (unlike you) she'd use a kitchen knife which would be much quieter with the same effect.

Now she says that I don’t trust her, so you've trusted her all her life and suddenly now you don't? What have you done, besides this, to make you think she would want to harm you? and is barely speaking to me. I've never met her but she's clearly intelligent for not listening to your lips flapping. How can I convince her to stop endangering us? You can start by realizing its YOU that's endangering her by somehow thinking the world is a boundless safe space where sugar coated unicorns and fairies dont sprinkle magic love dust on everyone and that there are evil people out there that don't give a damn about you or your daughter. You should be thankful she has taken the initiative on her own to be resourceful enough to learn how to accept a tremendous responsibility and understands how to protect her life, and potentially yours. Wake up, smell the real world, and pull your head out of your liberal, delusional, pusssified ass and stand up for you and your family by making sure it's protected.

 

Sounds like one of @Darth movies

 

I think the females in my videos know how to keep me in line...

 

On opposite day...

 

Ehh...

 

She's from Freeville NY and the replacement for Dear Abby. Basically an Ithaca native.

 

My guess is that this a baited letter. If true, the author did an awesome job.

 

Hmm I bought my daughter her gun”s” as in many. Hell I even supplied her with ammunition for all of them and took her to the range to use them. Hell I even showed her how do build her own guns. I must be a terrible father.
