For posts where you bitch about something that annoys you.
Where N is the number of comments a given post receives:

S is the number of people who are sympathetic to your situation
W is the number of people who claim you are doing it wrong
A is the number of people who have had it far, far worse than you.
U is the number of people who want to talk about a completely unrelated issue.

So S+W+A+U= N.

For values of S/(W+A+U) greater than 1, your readers are mostly like you, I.E, whiny bitches.
For values of W/(S+A+U) greater than 1, your readers are mostly assholes.
For values of A/(W+S+U) greater than 1, your readers are prepubescent teenagers.
For values of U/(W+S+A) greater than 1, your readers are democrats.

I can stretch this on forever. The math alone could take years and require Ramanujan to resolve. But it seems to fit pretty well.

and, frankly, ignorant shibboleths of the left is “Guns were designed from the beginning to kill people”

It’s the fallback position when you point out that swimming pools, auto accidents, and illicit drugs kill more people than do guns. it’s what they have instead of reason.

First of all, it is a lie. Firearms were invented- and perfected- to give the weak an equal footing with the strong, so that physical strength and strength of numbers did not endanger the freedom of the individual. This is the standard answer to that, and always should be.

On the other hand, the one I like most is to begin clubbing them about the head with an aluminum baseball bat saying “Great! So you will be less dead when I cause your vacuous head to collapse because THIS was designed to play a game, not to kill people!”

Frankly, the only reason I don’t do that is the action of cracking one of their skulls has the same effect as a divide by zero incident. No thanks, I don’t want to be sucked into that rift.
