Sandy Hook families sue estate of shooter's mother[W:52]

Re: Sandy Hook families sue estate of shooter's mother

Your rabidly extremist mindset is the best possible advertisment I could ever have for my position and why nobody like you should be allowed near a gun.

Thanks for providing such an illuminating example :peace

How about you fly to America and try and take it from him? I mean if you are so brave you have no problem doing it.
 
Re: Sandy Hook families sue estate of shooter's mother

I find the display such 'armed' political extremism in what is supposed to be the worlds leading democracy disturbing. If he was alone in his beliefs he could be dismissed as just another lone crackpot, but given the evidence on such threads as this he is far from being so. I think its something your society needs to address given the arsenals such people want to have and how easily they dismiss the consequences for society of so many others wanting to have them too. I suspect there are many Sandy Hooks lie ahead for the US and the incomprehensible tragedy is that nobody cares and nothing will change when they do :(

We are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic.

Bad things will happen, those does mean we are all punished for it nor are our rights any less valuable.
 
You are more likely to be robbed, raped, or beaten in Europe..

Maybe maybe not theres no way to directly compare the stats given the different methodologies used by the various nations in collating such data

What is comparable though is that in the US you are 5 times more likely to be murdered than in Europe and three quarters of your murders involve the use of a firearm

Oh what a cheap cop out....Troll on Subject of the Crown.
 
Yes you are. Remove a few major cities and American crime and murder rates are even lower then most of Western Europe.

Nonsense. You are 40 times more likely to be shot in the US. Fiddling the data by removing a few cities won't change that much
 
Yes it will.

80% of gun-related deaths (non-suicide) are gang related. : Firearms

We get it, you are a subject who has been beaten into submission by a system that refuses any ideal of God given and Unalienable rights.

However much you try and fiddle the data. Even in your state with the best firearms record (Hawaii) You are still around 12 times more likely to be shot than in the UK . Nobody in authority has ever 'beaten' me into doing anything

The data is the data. You are simply rejecting it out of hand in order to defend your fetish

No, they are always doing such slight of hand.

It is also defending my rights, not a fetish.

Then again a subject does not know the value of being armed.
 
Waving a flag at me isn't going to trump the facts :lol:

You've been given the facts and figures so theres not a lot more I can add.

You are today some 40 times more likely to be shot in the US than in Europe due to lack of proper gun control

I can't make you see something you clearly don't want to see :(

Nope.. that's not what the studies say. Sorry sir.. but you are repeating a mantra that is not born out by the evidence.

But like you said.. I can't make you see something that clearly you don't want to see.

Unfortunately like most of your ilk protecting guns is far more important to you than protecting people. The numbers speak for themselves

No.. unfortunately.. you desire to take peoples rights away without any real reason, and your reliance on government is more important to you than protecting people. The evidence does speak for itself.. and as pointed out multiple times.. it supports my position.. not yours.

Your country has needlessly restricted its citizens from protecting itself.... heck... you don't even allow your Olympic shooting team to practice their sport in their home country.. Sorry sir but that makes no rational sense.
