yes they are, it just has nothing to do with criminals, since they already have firearms. What did they find on the scum that was killed by the police in London?

Hehe, mention firearms to an american and he screams "second amendment" and starts singing the anthem.
Gun homicide per 100,000 population: USA 3.98 Canada 0.4 England/Wales 0.15 Have fun doing what you're doing while we here in Sweden have intercourse with bikiniteams and polarbears. |

erm,I believe you misinterpreted what I meant.. It won't affect crime because criminals already have guns.. do I seriously have to explain this bit again?

You can't simultaneously hold the positions that :-
A) Gun ownership prevents crime. and.... B) Crime rates in the UK will be unaffected by public ownership of firearms. If gun ownership prevents crime then all things being equal the the crime rate should come down after its introduction. But if, as you said, the crime rate will remain un-affected then in what tangible sense has gun ownership prevented crime? |

I never understand people who really believe that taking guns from law abiding people would make a safer place where no one will be hurt by crime. They have way too much dependency on institutions to live and eat.
Muggings without guns mean less lethal? That's hilarious. The point is less muggings not less chance of losing life due to lead poisoning. Just ask yourself if you were very very hungry and just had to eat and you have two people and you had to roll one of the for cash to afford to eat. One holding a gun in his right hand and foaming at the mouth, smiling, laughing in such a such a way his belly fat jiggles and he is winking at you, licking his lips, blows a kiss your way and he's holding one hundred dollars cash in his left hand and the other subject is just holding the cash, which would you choose? Just answer that to yourself because anyone with common sense knows that answer. Last edited by ATAG_Doc; 08-11-2011 at 07:03 PM. |

If people want to own guns, that's their business. Personally, I don't want the responsibility of owning a firearm.
Touch wood, so far I have never been in a bad situation where having one would have been convenient. |

By the way, what's the requirements to legally buy a gun in the US? Clean record or? And can I take my gun with me to the pub for a pint with friends? Last edited by Vengeanze; 08-11-2011 at 06:33 PM. |

Taking it into bar is not allowed. State law provides that any business can forbid carrying of a firearm on their property. They display this sign iat the entrance of the establishment. However a business owner can pack heat all he wants to in his own business and even wear it visible. Many pawn shops have all their people working there packing heat. They never have anything happen in them bad. I feel safest in these places. Trust me when I tell you this because I've lived here my entire life. Everyone I know and I mean EVERYONE I know owns and or carries a gun on them all the time. Guns are not rare they're every where. Last edited by ATAG_Doc; 08-11-2011 at 07:15 PM. |

And the death rate from automobiles is astronomically higher than either stat, so wouldn't be more prudent to get rid of cars because thy statistically kill a lot more people than any other weapon? |
