See if you can spot the logical fallacies in your argument.

Protip: There's 3 of them

There is not fallacies in my argument because I am not arguing. I am directly mocking your argument.

After you're done, come back and we might be able to have a debate. As it is, you're just blathering without making any sense.

Like the nonsense you projected from your psyche?

Door locks are to keep honest people honest. They do nothing to deter dishonest people. Can you tell me how your puny little door lock will stop my foot? I'm going to make a guess here: You think that having more lights (streetlights, porch light, etc...) in your neighborhood is a good thing and makes your neighborhood safer, too, right? 95% of locks are a joke, especially on suburban households. The tolerances on the tumblers in your locks on your front door (deadbolt included) are so incredibly sloppy that I could manually pick them in under a minute. I was ass deep in muck and mud in the jungles of Panama trying not to die from poisonous animals, plants and disease while eating dried out but more often soggy MREs and hoping some asshole didn't frag me because he was too jumpy or some piece of shit guerrilla didn't stab me in the night. Yes, your sad plight of having to walk around a bad neighborhood in the evening and being able to go home to a warm house and hot food was weighing on my thoughts, let me tell you. I am so sorry you had to brave the jungles of Compton for 10 minutes every few days. I haven't said word one about gun control, I was telling you about locks. In fact, if you are some place I am going to be, soon, I will be happy to give you a demonstration as to just how ineffective your lock is, assuming you give me permission.

Perhaps you should do a demonstration for the British Metropolitan Police and convince the crime prevention department that 'door locks do nothing to deter dishonest people' because you 'was ass deep in muck and mud in the jungles of Panama trying not to die from poisonous animals, plants and disease':
