Second, if you think that's a petty difference, you don't get the whole point of my argument (that though I had figured out long ago..).

So what? I don't really trust them either.

yes, but they're the ones with the stick. Are you gonna wave your voting card when they decide for you once again?

My lot? Seriously? move. Just leave.

I really can't, but people like you make this place less pleasant than what it actually is. Mine was a dickish answer to a dickish statement.

No, I don't want one.

agreed, but just for the sake of science, to see how easy it is to get one.

Ignorance of what? It boils down to what you think is 'good reason' to own a Handgun or Semi Automatic. I can't think of one.

I can't think of a good reason to snort cocaine or smoke weed, still, other people enjoy doing it.

Pot, kettle? Seriously, you're a hypocrite. We're a herd are we/ simply because we disagree, you know nothing about me, you're making assumptions.

instead of pondering the opinion of a foreigner, who might see things from a different perspective, all you can do is taking it personally like I'm talking to you, relax.

What about the right to live in a country with tough gun laws?
Gun owners right more important than non gun owners are they?

I haven't asked for less tough laws, just for laws that make sense. With stricter (or shall I say, more effective) gun laws and semiauto and pistols we all win.

Now you're just talking rubbish, find me one single quote from anyone in a position of power in the UK that says binge drinking is safe. I know for a fact that guns are dangerous. So what you've just said is the exact opposite of what is clearly the truth, you'll say anything to justify your position.
What pretentious moral values are you talking about?

sure, but what are they doing to stop or reduce it? Nothing.. let me think why, maybe cos too many people like it, or maybe cos the Government gets a lot of revenue off the selling of alcohol and tobacco..
Everything has a dangerous potential, even your kitchen knives, your car.. shall we forbid everything that is potentially dangerous?

Yet another irrelevant, meandering paragraph.

Fact - Semi Automatics were banned in this country because a gun owner, a gun club member, walked through a rural town and shot people. Handguns were banned because a gun owner went into a school and killed children.

wrong again.

Your only relevant point seems to be that a having a hobby is a good enough reason to own a lethal weapon. I don't think it is. Ok?

no, you're looking at the shallow end me thinks. It's beyond that, but if you're happy to think otherwise..
