It's because "anything to do with guns and war and killing" is simply
wrong, Stewart! Guns, and war, and killing is thought to equate to
patriotism, nationalism, jingoism - and these things too equate to each
other and are also thought to be just as wrong!
I believe the attitude stems from fashion, ignorance, fear, and
irresponsibility.
It was patriotism, nationalism, jingoism which led to the totally
unnecessary
deaths of millions in WW1.

You have earned a reputation for starting arguments and not listening
to any opposing point of view, and for being generally offensive and
boastful.
You should not be surprised therefore if people avoid responding to
you.
For all the reasons you give, I think you'll find he's in so many kill files
that his post was probably not seen by the person to whom it was addressed.
