Yep. American gun laws sure are neat.

A country where evryone has a right to be armed. Including those with a criminal history.

The ease in which things like this happen doesn't seem to worry them does it?

"Frozen peas is a great weapon and you can eat them later"

Not to mention that it can cause peabrain syndrome, but that's only if you don't eat them!

...but we have hands and feet, arms and legs, or many of us do. This is a weapon just as much as a gun, it's only purpose is to kill.

I think you have hit the acme of ludicrous hyperbole.  While a hand may wield a weapon, it can also comfort, caress, create art, build , and communicate.  Legs may propel a soldier, but they also walked behind a plow, drove water winches, danced, conveyed food and goods to market. 

To allege that they had one purpose only is to appear the fool.

Kind of interesting, where facts can be quite misleading...........take Greenland for example......... that 127 deaths per 100K looks horrible, until you see that Greenland's population is around 50K and 75% of those deaths were suicides.  Those 6-month nights get a little depressing, I guess.

Ya know whats worse than gun fondlers, (I don't have any guns BTW to fondle) That is cop fondlers, yeah, they go around making trouble where there is none. Sneak and follow someone while they descretly call police. OCers know all too well about the cop fondlers while they break no laws and are endlessly harrassed. But they don't stop with OCers, they go after grocery shoppers. I was victim to this, and went to jail for felony grocery shopping purchase lemonade with intent to drink.

These cop fondlers are a much bigger problem than and gun fondlers ever could be. I came out of mcdonalds today, sat in my car and heard a noise, it was a little girl playing and twirling over by the car beside me, I guess because the mother seen me look over, (i'm guessing the mother) she told the little girl to stop before i call the police on them

"That woman over there is gonna call the police if you don't stop"

Thats how big the cop fondling problem is. People think i'm gonna call the cops on them if they do something that gets my attention.

The amusing thing is, that when the 2nd amendment was written, there was only ONE democratic republic in existence........ the United States.  Things have changed greatly since then.  We no longer have a "well regulated" militia, unless you want to call the National Guard a militia, so the need for firearms to defend the citizenry against "tyranny" no longer exists.

I and I would venture to say most Australians couldn't give a flying **bleep** about your precious 2nd Amendment...

And I venture to say most Americans couldn't give a flying **bleep** how you feel about their gun laws.
