Sharp as a Marble - I don’t think I’m ever cleaning my guns again

I don’t think I’m ever cleaning my guns again

I just realized that, should I attempt to clean a firearm in an attempt to make it more reliable, some lawyer might nail me to the wall for ‘modifying’ my gun, making it more deadly.

It could happen dammit!

Or they could go after you because you DELIBERATELY and KNOWINGLY used a Weapon that was Unsafe to be Fired in the First Place, due to it's being Dirty! "Another Piece of Evidence, Your Honor, that shows why my Poor Defendant Goblin was shot by someone who showed such careless Disregard for Safety!"

They're Lawyers. Doesn't matter what you do, nor that their Argument has been shot down hundreds of times in the past, they'll go for it anyway. Just the nature of the Beast.

Any good lawyer would make sure to point out that it's all your fault anyway. You were the one who insisted on getting out of bed this morning.

Cleaning is overrated.

Logic Fail.
Any wannabee Perry Mason is going to attempt to spin your lack of barrel cleanliness as a deliberate attempt to inflict secondary damage to his client- a misunderstood poor youth who was just trying to get his life together- via biological infection.

Or you could refinish the slide black! Everyone knows that Black = Evil and dangerous! Sarah Brady told me so. Better not send anything out for refinishing if you plan to keep it for self defense.....

But if you don't clean it they are going to say that you were attempting to cause tetanus and sepsis with your intentionally dirty gun and ammo.

Reductio ad absurdum, while an amusing rhetorical tool, is also a logical fallacy.

Speaking as someone who never leaves guns stock and really enjoys reductio ad absurdum, one needs to be ready to defend the use of both, and logically, against attacks.
