Let me be clear. This is not a situation where you would bring up dishonesty if you had proof, and there is no proof.
I agree with what you're saying about Bernie Madoff's autobiography itself, but strongly state that it is not analogous to this situation.
So if your 'what about' was a total tangent, I agree with your post. If you were trying to use it for an argument by analogy, I do not agree with that argument.
> You assume the reason someone used such language was because they simply disagreed.
More that they lack empathy! The comparison accused of being 'disingenuous' is not an inherently ridiculous one. All it takes is strongly valuing the second amendment to make that comparison. It's not in the same ballpark as a modest proposal. Anyone who honestly believes that the statement is far from a rational argument is not even trying to understand.
