Attempt to avoid facts.
Scotland, how sweet.
Attempt to avoid facts.
there are no facts one can use to claim gun bans or UK style laws would do anything positive in the USA (disarming citizens and making them criminals might be seen as a positive to some)
Scottish Whites are more violent per capita than white Americans btw. I think Scotland is one of the more violent first world nations there is
Since when does logic demand that one must have facts to disclaim an idea? Isn't it the other way around?You mean you have no facts you can use to disclaim it
The incidences of rape and assault are more than double per capita than the US. Considering the large number of crimes stopped by private gun ownership in the US, what is your argument that the people assaulted in the UK, and the women being raped, should not be allowed to defend themselves?And yet the murder stats are lower. Imagine what would be happening if we had guns. :doh

They make great ale though. :mrgreen:
No one can even remember Gorbie. He's history and no one was ever afraid of him to begin with, the most West-friendly President ever. However, the US has the strongest military force in the world. Why would it fear attack from the gang that can't shoot straight? And what makes you think the peasants revolting is more intimidating than the strongest military force in the world?
No logic whatsoever in any of that.
Then you are saying you don't need the populace to own guns. You only "need" military grade arms.
Not really. The point I thought, is the safety of children and other innocent people.
With the example of European countries and many, many others, why would US suddenly become incapable of continuing to run a non oppressive state? How much of the US military do you believe would go along with that in reality? And if you're not in fear that your own military (staffed by your own families) would suddenly turn against you and implement a dictator state, then who is it you think is going to do that to you?
It's nonsense, isn't it. Just is not a threat.
As I've said in previous posts, let's think about this scenario: Guns are banned, criminals get guns through black markets (or just use steak knives), and there would be an increase in crime due to new "gun cartels". I dont know if everyone should be armed or if there are just too many idiots, because that's what really kills people.
Says who? They already have them.... do you think they are just going to hand them over? Or do you support door to door warrantless searches of every home, location, and place on U.S. Soil?If guns were illegal less criminals could obtain it.
Explain this logic.....If a criminal has a gun and you have a gun. Odds are your gun won't do you much good.

You must be right, it worked for alcohol and drugs!
Yeah, because no one ever took down an armed man with a gunshot :roll:... Might as well have the police turn their guns in since they wont do them much good.
You ignoramuses really need to learn that it isn't that no one wants to have a rational discussion about gun control, its that you're all as retarded as your ideas and your ignorance makes it impossible to take your naive tripe seriously.
Your lack of a brain just amuses me. I pull a gun and point it to your head gl using your gun.
You can't do that to the police for two reasons. One you're not suppose to approach a police officer, and if you do in a suspicious way they are aleart. Two, police officers get communication and back up so yes one can get killed but odds are you're not going to get very far.
It did work for alcohol and drugs. Learn to read the word less.
Stupid people are always the problem of the world. Unfortunately there's no way to get rid of em and the best we can do is work our way around.

How about the right to walk down the street without a fear of being shot ?
And these law-abiding "sane" men, are they 20% of the population ? 40% ?....
A law with teeth in it will have an effect on the criminals.....
