Yep. American gun laws sure are neat.

[i-need-a-martini]

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?

No, I just figured it out, we are people and can't be trusted with anything, 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.

Please, if you see someone who still has their arms and legs intact, call police so they can be removed.. See something say something.

There is. saying...it is better to stay silent and be thought a fool, than open your mouth and remove all doubt.

The main reason the police shoot people is because those people have or might have a gun,(or it may look like they have a gun as everyone is allowed to have one).

Everyone is allowed to have guns in America?, not even close, only police are allowed to have the guns, and take them away, and take homes, rape, rob, steal, abduct, abuse..

See,you have no concept of the truth,only in how to twist things for your own propaganda campaign.

So how is anyone supposed to believe you?

This was in my first link:

• The US has an estimated 283 million guns in civilian hands
• Each year about 4.5 million firearms, including approximately 2 million handguns, are sold in the United States
• An estimated 2 million second hand firearms are sold each year
• Percentage of American households with a gun has been steadily declining (high of 54% in 1977 to 33% in 2009)
• The average number of guns per owner has increased from 4.1 in 1994 to 6.9 in 2004.

 The US is number one in private gun ownership.

I support Austrailans right to not have a gun, but will never support their right to force others not to, just because they have no interest in them. Outlaw guns and you ensure that only criminals will have them, Go ahead, call police when an attacker has broken into your home and seconds away from killing you and, or your family. Lets see if they get there in the time it would have taken an armed and ready person looking out for themself.

This isn't America and you have to stop trying to state things that might happen over there on a regular

basis,(it hardly ever happens here because the guns aren't available to the criminals because of

gun control).

I used to have a gun so that I could shoot rabbits,(I never needed it for safety).

In Australia, the police may be good, but they are not God, they can't respond in an instant, and when you need them, your gonna need then that instant. In America, the police are more likely to arrest me if I called them for help, they actually have done so several times when I've been the victim of attack. Not a single conviction and I'm the lowlife criminal scum.

That's why you have over 300 deaths per year were homeowners are killed because they produced a gun.

If the hadn't pulled the gun they would've probably still be alive.

So as you can see Australia doesn't have the problems that the US has because we have gun control.

Anything you come up with doesn't make sense in Aus,(so all you're doing is wasting your time and trying

to keep your own private campaign/propaganda going).

Why don't you post on the US Boards,were you "might" get some support.(or do you use your other ID for

that?).

I think you underestimate the freedom that having arms and legs provides.

Can't say I've ever used a gun to eat my cereal or hold my watch in place. And regardless of how many bullets are in the chamber, a gun is not going to stop your bum dragging on the ground when you go to the corner shop.

So, it does not look as if the guns were much help to you protecting yourself and your property, were they.  You keep telling us that if were all armed we could protect ourselves, but you did not  use them.  How do you think it would end if you did try to resist police, and pointed a gun at them?

Used up all their peg[s] perhaps?
