wow, let's start with this spectacular display of ahistorical ignorance. i guess i missed the part of the movie where the nazis give anne frank a revolver before hauling her off to the death camp.

Like I said nothing wrong with guns but they for sure don't make for a safer society as the murder and suicide rate show we are very lonely on top of all industrialized nations when it comes to death caused by guns...

"death caused by guns" shows the primitive level of understanding. in the middle ages, if a bridge collapsed and killed several people, they would put the bridge on trial. sometimes, symbolicly executing it. inanimate objects don't kill people. how many times must this be repeated?
if you look at a county by county study of the united states, you'll find that gun ownership and violent crime are inversely proportionate. no one disputes this. if guns were the problem, iowa should be a killing field.
the europeans are catching up to our levels of violence. assault, home invasion, rape, etc, are all on the rise. despite the loving government, gun control, and pot. google "interpol crime statisics" sometime.
dinner is ready, we'll have to continue this tomorrow. assuming the thread is still here.
