Its actually pretty hard to get a gun in this country, even if you're a criminal with powers of law defiance who can somehow generate an illegal gun. It's to the benefit of the criminal community as a whole that there aren't guns. Policemen aren't armed. When they quarrel they don't all die. It's easy to obtain an illegal gun in a society when gun ownership is taken for granted and people think it's okay to gain a gun. That's why the "only criminals will have guns" argument works in the US. Because it's entrenched.
It's far harder to do so in a country where everyone agrees that gun ownership is utterly retarded.


No! You idiot! Think about being surrounded gang of six or more teenagers or being confronted by a single muscular man. These are pretty basic scenarios in a world without guns or knives.

You might like the idea of taking it in the ass from the criminal element and submitting to intimidation, but don't you dare try to force that folly on me.

One last time, you can't un-invent guns, so the really hard core criminal class will still have them. You might notice that there are still gun crimes in the UK and when they do happen, the average law enforcement department isn't equipped to deal with it.

Finally, violence doesn't stop by taking away the weapons. Violence ends when society is good and virtuous, and there isn't any social rot. If you're so concerned about ending violence, do something about social decay. Taking away people's means of self-protection is evil.

u noe as a 68 something poster... half i which i can only assume u've gotten through pointless debates such as this one... u sure do like to trash talk senior posters...don't call ppl idiots because they won't conform to ur ideas


They argued with each other because they disagreed, i doubt it's because of their post counts, although i could be wrong,
It's a bit arrogant to assume things about peoples underlying intentions, when in fact they are both posting well above the standard ... albeit a bit derogatorily.

However, i do agree it is kind of pointless to argue about something , you won't change your views over.

I asked a guy who got shot what he thought, and instead of the typical yes! guns for safety" response, he answered unbiasedly, that there should be stricter gun control laws
because he said honestly that if he had a gun that nigger would've be dead. (statically , twice or well, at least a higher death rate by shootings)

... and Ok fine, you have these rare... well not so rare i guess, mass shootings in the U.S. but still you have FAR more ... individual killings( than 5 per month ), which can easily turn into two dead men.
Now correct me if i'm wrong.. but when u get shot you don't die right away... you can reach for your gun and shoot back (this is my assumption)
However if suppose every murder that takes place is a professional shot to the back of the head, my argument is invalid.
Cause if i had a gun, and someone i knew.. i pissed off, hatred, different clique / gang or w/e starting walking up on me I'd be clicking that safety off and u know backing up a little, right?

Also about outlawing guns, the whole they're still easy to get even if they are outlawed thing, because... mary jane is illegal and its easy to get, or whatever really.

Imo, this would be a doubledged sword because... you're giving people an even worse incentive to get a gun, i'm not big on statistics arguing , but i'm going to take a stab here and say most shootings occur because of gang -related activities , -cough- teenagers, and they'll just have to have a gun to feel HNIC (head nigger in charge)

I don't want a strict gun control because then we won't have the right to bear arms... and they'll have to amend the constitution to do that!
and i hate memorizing them for class
lolol ok that was a bad one sorry..
