Where did I say I was right? There is no wrong or right in this.. It's about what people, and what I want. I'm expressing my opinion and I cannot be wrong. It's not a matter of fact it's a matter of opinion.
Democracy lets people with different opinions vote for what they want.
Remember, you're the one who told me that because I disagreed with you I was un-democratic - It is not me who has a distroted sense of democracy it is you.

...are you for real? You say I have no understanding of democracy? I know that minorities are allowed to express thier opinion - It's a democracy so everyone can, Majority included.

My dear keyboard hero, there was a time when you would be able to make such aggressive statements, bear the consequences of it (most likely a broken nose), then go home and learn from it. Nowadays you'd probably call the police and report the aggression, or do it from a pc, where you know you're safe and can get the worst out with no consequences. You're the frustrated individual, not me. I can live in a world of guns and know how to behave/handle them, you can't simply cos you've been told it's bad (unless it's Northern Ireland, or Afghanistan, or Iraq) and obey like a good sheep.

What is your problem?
Because I don't agree with you you assume I'm a sheep? I said STFU because you called me "selfish, discriminatory and anti-democratic" and I am none of these things and it made me angry.
I am just expressing my personal view and I decided I wouldn't like more relaxed gun laws in the UK. I like it as it is.

Once again, your beloved government just had the courage to propose to shut down social networks in case other riots happen.. don't you really see what they're trying to do to your freedom??  |
Here you go again.. what have guns and twitter got to do with each other?
I have the freedom to not want more guns in the UK - You are a hypocrite.
No matter how much you dislike it.. I don't want more guns in the UK.
Now leave me to the freedom of my own opinion. Like I already said if it's that important to you then start campaigning for mre relaxed gun laws.
Go to your MP.
You'll find that you are in the minority, and the way democracy currently works that means you just have to deal with it.
