Is the dispute a discussion? As long as we discuss, we will collide. But that might be a fight that doesn’t use your hands. A discussion is a place to examine the problem from various angles and to criticize it so that there is no omission, in order to draw a conclusion that is acceptable to everyone. I don’t think it’s a stage where only personal opinions are passed on.

Isn’t it possible to talk only to those who can keep the middle of the two extremes?

It’s even an act of searching for common values ​​and common perceptions, but at that time, when the basic conditions for discussion are not shared, the conditions are shared first. There must be. If emotions get involved there, the condition sharing has failed, and the discussion after that will not begin.
Discussions between people with relatively common perceptions are easy to proceed, but it can be a good deal for good friends. So the conditions should not be too good or the conditions should not be missing. Isn’t it possible to talk only to those who can keep the middle of the two extremes?
And since no group can realize a flat relationship without top and bottom, the top-to-bottom relationship between people can affect the discussion. Therefore, the discussion between the boss and his subordinates will be the same as the command transmission ceremony if care is not taken.

A company selling sports equipment called Dick’s Sporting Goods in the US has significantly reduced gun sales

The contraction of gun sales by this company did not begin now, it began in 911 and has been phased through the occurrence of several incidents. Management seems to have discussed many times at the board meeting.
However, I think that few people bought a gun on Black Friday. I get the impression that gun society is a society controlled by a small number of people. The vast majority of people don’t like having their guns pointed. Those who affirm the gun are those who point the muzzle at something.

This is because it is not easy to regulate human behavior

The tool itself does nothing. It is the person who uses the tool that does something. If it is something you can’t do without using tools, the tools are first criticized.
This is because it is not easy to regulate human behavior, but it is not so difficult to regulate sales of tools.
The idea that if a tool is regulated, human behavior can also be regulated, it is an illusion. Of course, no harmful tools should be distributed. However, I don’t think that hunting a tool will ever change people’s behavior. That is only one condition.

That’s all for today’s post. Thank you
