  By that perverted logic, tommy has won every argument hes ever made 
when people stop responding to him.

This fucking idiot still thinks "the ar-15 was a weapon the military 
never wanted and never used" even after being shown DARPA and 
congressional reports showing the weapon was spec'd by the military who 
bought 80,000 copies and used them for several years in vietnam before 
changing the designation to M-16. I finally stopped arguing about it 
because he simply a willfully ignorant troll who refuses to accept 
blatant facts when shown. Does that mean he's right that "the ar-15 was 
a weapon the military never wanted and never used" and "won" because I 
stopped arguing about it.

No, john, not responding doesn't indicate "win". In this case it 
indicates a realization that the argument is with a willfully ignorant 
troll who cant live with the fact that he doesn't have the last word.
