Correct. In case you didn't already know, criminals break laws. That includes bringing guns to "gun-free zones". By definition, "gun-free zones" only apply to law-abiding citizens. Law-abiding citizens not having guns when criminals do is in fact a problem.
Yes indeed Criminals break laws. Yes criminals having guns is a problem, criminals recieving guns legally is a bigger problem. America arming their own terrorist. Having guns in nightclubs does not resolve this problem. Firstly it's a place where drinks (and drugs) happen to the point people are not of sound mind so why have weapons in the hands of people without sound minds? I'm sorry the answer is not the populate the world with guns, espeically as according to Kobuk's website the ratio of gun per person is by the looks of it the highest in the world.
I already refuted this. If you want to kill a lot of people, bombs and chemical weapons beat guns hands down. The people who guns help the most are the people who don't want to kill people.
Look if you want someone dead there are many means of doing it, and yes bombs and chemicals included, but hell Chemicals don't kill people, people do, same for bombs, this saying can also be applied to knives, tanks, sniper rifles, cars. So yeah explosives don't kill people, people do....But it still helps.
I don't even? Are you saying if someone attacks you with a knife, you are not justified in stopping that person from killing you? If you are, then how exactly are going to do that without a weapon of your own? And if you aren't, you're saying a murderer's life is worth more than your own, and I don't see any point arguing with that.
You don't even what? Are you saying the only way I can defend myself is a gun, cause well that thinking is stupid on a few scales. The first is if I am allowed to have a gun, then the guy who currently has a knife is would of had a gun instead of a knife aimed at me, and to be honest me having a gun is going to do nothing, because as the attack is going to be unprovoked his will be out and targetted on me already, and now I am stuck with my arms up crapping myself, and my gun has done jack. With a knife, yeah its a knife, which is a close combat item, there are so many options that I can do. Chances are I'll probably panic because most citizens are not used to being threatened with a knife, but point being the knife has limitations, and in that case I would promote self-defense classes because there are ways of disarming an opponent. Not so much if he has a ranged item. But by the sounds of your post you generally believe that only guns will save you so hears a UK story for you.
A few incidents like this has happened but on particular. A farmer was burgled into his house by some thieves. The farmer grabs his rifled and threatens them away, then stands outside while one runs and shoots him straight into the head, instant death. This has been documented a few times including this article below
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/11044022/Tony-Martin-15-years-on-I-dont-want-to-go-back-there-because-it-could-happen-again.htmlGuns is about power, not defense, that is a choice. Power is a garentee because you get a choice, or at least you feel you do. The gentleman above believe he was entitled to kill that person because he didn't want to stand there and get hurt, as though those are the only options, but someone died, and arguable not for justice but revenge on breaking the mans house.
At anycase it does not work for the citizens of UK.
If you spend less time hurling insults and more time reading, you'll see nobody thinks anything like that.
I have tried being fair, I've looked at all the links including the most recent one Kobuk posted. Point is no mind is being swayed, I am for gun control and you are not.
But I disagree, this is a mixture for some to believe that being a gun is being a real man, or patriotich, and for others to believe that they are the law and can apply it how they see fit.
