You could compare those with Switzerland? They have guns too, more per capitl than the Americans. How come the swiss don't kill eachother by the thousands? We have bebetween 20 and 25 million legal firearms in Canada for a population of 30 millions. How come we don't slaughter eachother?

As a Londoner not all gun crime is reported, they are rife on the streets here with "kiddie" gangs proudly showing them off.

Inner London housing estates tenants are prisoners at night too frightened to go out in the late hours, some areas are no go zones for any of the authorities, the same applies to certain cities and their sub cultural areas in the North of England.

There's nothing to be celebrated with gun ownership, if you have to own one its for the purpose of killing someone no matter what the circumstances are.

Here's a brave gang that paralysed a 5 year old recently.

so its bad when a citizen (read: slave) actually defends themselves...but when a cop has to "defend" themselves (and when cops defend themselves is usually at a NON-threat) is a good thing....


enjoy your nanny state where you cant even legitimately defend yourself with your fists with out being arrested...

apparently people get arrested for showing a group of hoodlums intent on breaking in to your home a knife through a window.....cuz that actually happened over there...enjoy slavery...

us "freedom loving" americans will never tolerate the crap that has occurred in your country....freedom is a dangerous endeavor...im sorry you can not handle freedom



also if guns need to be made illegal...what should happen to cars...they kill MANY more people than guns....

Oh man. You guys talk about freedom so easily, throwing empty shells around like confetti while having zero expirience what lack of freedom and fighting for it actually means. And no, Obamacare does not make the US a dictatorship.

In their eyes it does, which is just pittyful.

I was literally lying on the floor laughing when I saw protesters say that Obamacare would be the start of communism in the US. Seriously, how delusional can peopel be?

but thats the big push....the idea that we are all one big collective or commune where individual A personal actions (what they eat for instance) has an effect on person B somehow and thus person A's and every one else needs the govt to regulate what we can eat since a few people make the argument that cuz their actions impact us so we must regulate it....



we are turning in to a society where the rights of the individual is taking a back seat to the rights of the collective....when in fact in the american system its the rights of the individual that is supposed to be protected....

THAT IS COMMUNISM...and its been a long time comming....


when an external influence can force you to buy a product that you may not need or want....how is that freedom....

can i get the govt to regulate that every person needs to buy cliffs of dover....cuz if everyone spent money on it the devs would have more resources to work with.....


or maybe i should regulate that every home in america needs to hire someone to do lawn care, cuz its dangerous, and thus only professionals should be ablet to do it....that would surely help my business out....

Seriously, do you really believe that nonsense? universal healthcare will not lead to communism! Just goes to show the level of brain washing that the US has had to suffer due to a string of right wing governments.

Most of Europe has universal state healthcare and are far from communist. The UK has had a national health service since 1948 and has never come even close to being a communist country. The Health service in the US is pitiful compared to the rest of the developed world.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_...ther_countries

A communist country has a 100% planned economy which means the state decides the level of demand rather then the free market. Introducing universal healthcare is not going to tear down the very fabric of the US market led economy, in fact it may help as a large proportion of bankrupsy in the US is due to not being able to meet healthcare costs.

Communism usually comes hand in hand with a brutal totalitarian regime. I think the USA is in no danger of turning into that kind of state.
