Then how do you measure them? By the size of wedgie that they give you?

Well then, armed soldiers in Paris in the 1940's, 80's, and again today. Nothing to worry about, right?

5,000,000 potential threats living within France is just fine, correct?

There are many more gun nut threats in the US. Look at the figures.

If you want to measure atrocity by the number of people having fallen prey to it (i.e. 12 dead are not so bad, considering the far greater number elsewhere or in a different occurrence), be my guest.

In such a case we can all happily call the holocaust not all that serious, considering the number of dead people that Mao has on his plate.

You'll have to forgive me though if I don't join into these equations. As a matter of fact, whether you forgive me or not in this is really no concern of mine.

As far as the 80s and today are concerned, I'd be more worried by their absence.

On the merits of the label "potential", I guess I could call round about 320 million Yanks complete whackjobs. Or 66+ million French.

Well, potentially, of course.

Yeah but the gun nuts are mostly not Muslim.

DO try to stay focussed, eh?:mrgreen:

The majority of murders in Europe are not committed by Muslims. But of course only murders committed by Muslims count.

The ones who murder people with guns usually aren't members of the NRA or 'gun nuts' as you describe them. But you've got endless excuses for that, so cheerio.

I don't count threat levels by the number of dead and in this particular case,

How do you measure threat levels? By the number of dead that a given threat has produced/capable of producing. Therefore, the 12 total deaths that Action Directe produced in 8 years pale in comparison to the hundreds of deaths that Islamic terrorism has produced in just the last 2 years in France.

In such a case we can all happily call the holocaust not all that serious, considering the number of dead people that Mao has on his plate.

Is that what they're doing in Spain these days? Diminishing the holocaust? Hmm, interesting.

But coming back to earth, 185 Isis members and associates have been arrested in Spain in the last 2 years. Wasn't placating Islam supposed to secure peace in Espanola?

Now go and spin no more.

By the looks of it you've lost context completely, thus making any further exchange pretty pointless. You inventing new countries doesn't help much either.

So cya
