How many times do I have to tell you.

Go Kill Yourself.
Dropped the atomic bomb let them know that it's real
Speak soft with a big stick do what I say or be killed
I'm America!

I have found the enemy and he is us.

Funny. The day VTEC kicked in, my dad said if he was going to kill a bunch of people he would drive his full size pickup through a parade at 80 mph. I'm a chip off the old block.

Just make sure if you decide to do this, do it on Thanksgiving at the Macy's parade.

Well, it's not that people can't kill other people- if someone's desperate enough, they will do whatever to kill the person they want. HOWEVER, having guns makes this MUCH easier. While before, you had to get a stick and beat someone to death, having something like 3/4 chance of succeeding, now, you can just pull some trigger and the poor fella dies.
Why do we ban nuclear bombs? If we want to destroy a country that badly, we still have conventional troops and bombs and artillery and missiles. Because it makes it THAT much easier.
If every country becomes America, expect a lot more deaths. Armament is a bit like a domino effect. If someone gets a gun, everyone else wants one too, either to protect themselves, or threaten some other guy.

Parents are the responsible for their kids.

To be honest, the Dunblane Massacre involved a grown man murdering primary-school-age children.

Still, interesting to hear the views of y'all. May I dredge it back up: what does everyone think of countries that HAVE banned firearms? Are we going to wake up in an authoritarian state?

"if you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns"
if you take away all the guns, it will be harder to kill people. If you take away guns, there will be no such thing as an innocent bystander.
"if a man walks into your house with a gun, how are you going to shoot him?"
People will always kill other people but if you take away guns, there will be not as many people getting killed, just the ones that REALLY deserved it. :lol:
A lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. You think when Jesus comes back he ever wants to see a fucking cross? It's like going up to Jackie Onassis wearing a rifle pendant.

I don't think the U.S. will. For starters the NRA has way too many politicians who depend on large campaign contributions. Secondly, I don't believe the American citizen will allow it, too many gun owners which ultimatley equal too many lost votes. As for the countries that have outlawed guns, I can't really give an honest opinion. Has crime dropped dramatically in these countries? Specific crimes like murder, armed robbery, domestic violence. If so, then one could argue that gun control might be a "good" thing. If not or only a small percentage, then was it really worth the effort?

What about London... ISN'T authoritarian? Your every move is tracked. If you don't recognize it, then wait until 2012.

But, it doesn't make the US any less of a police state to have an armed population. It just slows the process to a creep, but doesn't keep it from growing.

For anyone who doesn't know. The police came and disarmed every citizen in the area in Lousiana affected by Katrina. The police came on porches, knocked in doors, wrestled old ladies to the ground, and took their weapons. Family heirlooms, gifts and protection it mattered not what these pistols rifles and shotguns were for or were from. The police took them and STILL have not returned them to the rightfull owners. Although, pity for the police (I mean the public) all the criminals still had possesion of their weapons, and they used them to easily loot and injure the defenseless population. If you say the US public won't stand for it, I say they either stand for it, or are hog-tied for standing against it.
