Here all I need to give up is my SSN. What if I didn't have an ID? I wasn't driving and it's not required to carry an ID at all times. I was just walking from the music store during summer.
Sure best bet for some would be to just give up the ID. However my blood boils when called a thief. Compound that with my authority complex, and we had a problem.

Actually there is, in Japan there are strict strict gun laws, in essence no one can possess guns, except for hunters and they are very bounded. Japan has much much lower crime rates then us and their gun crime rates are virtually non-existent. Bottom line, if we outlaw guns and have heavy reductions in their supply, there will be less crime and less gun crime.

Anect****ingdotal evidence, ftl. Again.
That's not a statistic, that's a data point.
Bottom line is, gun ownership rates and crime rates are not correlated.
The only thing you've said that has any veracity at all is that gun crime may be reduced (and I believe I have stated this in the thread already). However, this simply means that homicides and robberies which would have been committed with a gun will be committed using another weapon. If you are arguing that you think being stabbed to death is better than being shot, then you win, brah. If you are concerned about crime rates, however, you are simply wrong."for a hetrosexual [...] you seem VERY obsessed with the opposite sex... just a thought." - F.M.J

02-02-2010, 04:48 PM #165gun ownership rates/gun supply are directly correlated to crime im sorry but you're wrong. And its not anecdotal, theres many more cases, japan is not the only one.

homicide rates. "

This. Let's try something. Replace the words from the top paragraph as follows. Every bit of this is completely factual:
Actually there is, in Switzerland there are lax lax gun laws, in essence every household possesses guns, including hunters and they are not at all bounded. Switzerland has much much lower crime rates then us and their gun crime rates are equally much lower. Bottom line, if we outlaw guns and have heavy reductions in their supply, there will be no reason to believe there would be less crime and less gun crime.

Japan/Germany had strict gun laws.....see what happened to them?
Switzerland has better gun laws.

wow, strong hate brah... chill out..
bottom line is the right to bear arms is in the constitution... outlawing guns would make the entire constitution null and void... you cannot pick the parts of it you want to enforce...
education and parenting are the two biggest dangers in this country... if you take away guns, people will use knives or anything they can... our society as a whole has gone down hill since the 60's... i guess all that free love didnt catch on...Last edited by paleozoic; 02-02-2010 at 04:59 PM.

provides no evidence of any relationship between the total number of legally held

severity of controls imposed in various countries or the mass of bureaucracy involved
with many control systems with the apparent ease of access to firearms by criminals and
terrorists.”
