It's a discussion group. Why does that fact baffle you so?

 You have a habit of demanding personal information that goes beyond
the realm of discussion. Like I said, I know why you do it. You want
information about people so you can use it against them.

In this instance, "Use it against them" seems to be your code for "pointing out that their own behavior is at odds with their fervently stated opinions." I don't think that is unreasonable to note in a _discussion_ group.

But the question remains, why do you think whether or not someone
carries a gun is your business?

Because John chose to post "yet more justification" on a public _discussion_ group. Again, if he didn't want this matter discussed, he should not have posted about it. Why is that point so confusing to you?

If a person doesn't want their practices, habits, opinions and quirks
discussed, they should stop typing.

 The stated issue was about a reason for carrying a gun. It was an
opinion and I could understand someone asking to elaborate on the
opinion, but that's not what you did.
 

Which leads me to note that you frequently state your opinion on matters
that don't affect you in the least. The latest example was riders in
matching jerseys.

 Did I ask anyone if they wore matching jerseys?  No, I simply made a
general comment about seeing people in matching jerseys..  much like
the comment above about a reason for carrying a gun.

Right, you didn't ask us about jersey wearing. You just made a snide general comment about people who choose to wear matching jerseys, based on your assumption about their motive, of which you disapprove.

I may comment on what I see other people do, or on things that they've
told me, but otherwise, I don't demand personal information from
others. I think that's a really sicko thing to do.
 

Why do you think what they wear is any of your business?

 <LOL> It's not any of my business.
 I think you're too deep into your obsessions to see the difference
between commenting on what someone sees, and demanding information
beyond what's seen.

Are you pretending you didn't demand information from me with your "why do you ..." statements? Give me a break!
I think you're splitting hairs because John's behavior belies his pro-gun arguments. And you (and he) detest any posts that point out the problems inherent in your gun fetishes.
