I thought you just said there were too many guns in the US....or too accessible rather....which was why there were mass shooting every month? So the people are responsible for not regulating their own access? I don't follow.
Access... It seems to be all to easy to gain access, whether in the home or on the street. This is probably more evident in the statistics regarding accidental shootings in the home. Parents/Guardians do not seem willing or capable in many cases to restrict access to firearms and the laws do not hold adults legally liable in many cases due to state laws.
The problem with gun bans is that the citizens give up their guns the criminals don't, all it does is declare open season on the citizens. If I was an american I would fight tooth and nail to keep them, they have made it very difficult in my country to own a firearm and the criminals are running amok because of it. Our criminal stats prove this.
I explicitly stated "Gun bans are not the answer" in post #403
australia, for all of its disappointments (sketchy etchy, most notably), has reduced gun massacres very well. they may still have gun violence, but the massacres are all but extinct.
your country has effectively banned guns. self defense is not even an acceptable reason for gun ownership from what i have read about your laws.
No, guns rights do not exist here to the extent you are implying.
dude, haven't seen you round here for a bit... What up?
a gun is a very big responsibility in that way. i take lots of precautions to not impale myself on my axe or shock myself with my taser when i sleep with self defense in mind. such precautions would have completely prevented many of our recent gun massacres.
That is something we both agree on. After reading the final sandy hook report http://www.ct.gov/csao/lib/csao/Sandy_Hook_Final_Report.pdf safe and secure storage would have been a major contributor in preventing that massacre. The other factor would have been a responsible parent.

All of the firearms were legally purchased by the shooter’s mother.
Liberals are like Mormons. The Australians lost their guns when the popo went door to door. Zombie video games on the Xbox One are training material and can only be "played" as military exercises. For your crocodile fucking Steve Dundee he has to get it on the black market like the bad ass criminal Jamie Kennedy Wigger. Dingos even steal babies, just in case some stupid conservative mother didn't get an abortion like she should've. Of course you love those things about his country. There's even a cane toad which you can use as your environmental cause why it's not nice to mess with mother nature. I think you should move there and live the dream.
I'm sure they have. I would rather they did that and "left the datum" rather than have the cryptomilitary SWAT arm whose deployment they don't need to own up to as plainly. Remind'em that they are civilians after all. They want to hide that inconvenient factette. Let's pay real attention to the hand that isn't moving. Gnome Saiyan?
By and large, i think we're agreeing on this.
i wish my native american ancestors didn't trust you whities. you have the worst case of amnesia. but then again, if they never "met" they wouldn't have been raped by said whities i'd not have the complexion i do right? rape and slavery are good things because immigration(like that of the booming industrial world in the late 1800's and early 1900's.) would never have been available to the africans: is this the logic you follow? lemme guess, you're a bible thumper too?
