Why does the USA love Guns but the UK hates them?

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Emotional topic is emotional.

Fukin quality buck, brah!

[jason_bh]

Jesus could you be any more ****ing retarded.

If you fukking yanks want to kill each other then go for it, we will watch it on the morning news, no skin off our nose, stupid ****s think having more guns make the country safe, lmfao.

His point was valid. We are arguing that we Americans shouldn't need a gun. R3L3NTL3SS pointed out a situation that would probably change your one-sided mind. But instead of countering his argument you call him names and generalize that we Americans are all out to kill each other. Same circular argument that we are trying to stop.

His point was that he bets that if someone tried to harm your son whether it be with a bat, knife, gun, etc, you would want to stop that dirtbag from doing so. If the criminal had a gun, how would you protect him? That was the question in case you forgot. How would you feel being totally helpless in a situation like that?

In before I am a stoopid American and the question is avoided again.

[4ea]

guess how many people this gun has killed...



none!! because its an inanimate piece of aluminum and plastic, in the possession of a man who rejects the idea of committing evil acts

[5TR0NGMAN]

Solid come back when you have NOTHING of any common sense to say.
Yeah - you'd have to stand around and watch your boy get shot and probably you too because you'd have NO means of defending yourself front the guy with the gun in your home.

GJ, pal.

Lol, I would put my bank balance on your children being killed before mine, after all you live in a pos country where its ok for people to go and shoot innocent children,

GJ, pal.

[Vexidi]

The fact that they both have a self-defense side effect isn't the main or only point, merely the point that's focused on by a bunch of largely ignorant internet warriors.

Or help other less fortunate humans by donating game to shelters via Hunters for the Hungry.

Europeans only see guns the way the liberal American media wants them to; as horrible tools for taking out innocent children. Back in the day we had guns in our trucks in high school, we didn't shoot anyone. A few tragedies happen and all of the sudden *******s wanna flush hundreds of years of responsible gun ownership down the toilet.

[Lightbulbs]

So if an armed man broke into your home with a firearm and killed your boy it would be perfectly ok by you that you have no means of protecting yourself or your boy from that intruder(s)? I mean unless you're gonna throw something at the guy with the gun.

By simply having the gun in your home it's more likely that a family member will be killed than an intruder. Of course you can say the same thing for bread knives and shower curtains, but if you have a firearm in your home then statistically it's more likely that you'd either accidentally shoot the child, or he'd find the gun (or a friend would) and shoot himself.

Nope, us 'fukking yanks' don't want to kill each other. But stay mad, bro. Oh, and don't forget to smile...

Given that you're currently going through the process of establishing whether the president can authorise drone strikes on US civilians, what exactly are you being smug about?

[GTLV]

Representative population, gene pool, easy access to guns,

Meanwhile, in Britain, people resort to other acts of violence like stabbing, beating people to death, burning homes/buildings down.

Yet another GREAT comeback bud!!

[R3L3NTL3SS]

ROFL! It's call education. We educate our kids on firearms from a VERY young age.

Gun safes - do you know what that is or are you too stupid?

Yeah...no.

Complete bullshhit, that statement is.

Really, stabbing? Are you that much of a fuking clown you are gonna compare an assault rifle to a knife? Jesus, I thought you yanks were stupid but I didn't realise you were fuking brain dead.

[heelhavoc12]

because we won the revolution

Yes thats why they go into their schools and kill all their classmates and friends, nice gun education you got there.

[Farley1324]

Really, stabbing?

If that's what you call it when one person injures or kills another person using a knife, yes. I suppose it might actually be slashing or cutting?

LMAO. You do know that "study" was essentially research on gang members and considered children to be anyone under 25?

Intellectual honesty, not even once.

Ya, bro, for sure. Since responsible gun owners don't take precautions and train and educate their family on guns. But whatever bull**** misinformation floats your boat...

Given that you're currently going through the process of establishing whether the president can authorise drone strikes on US civilians, what exactly are you being smug about?

Lol, and by 'drone strike' you mean they are going to launch a missile at a stolen car? More misinformation from you, color me not surprised. Drones are being looked at for use with tracking, they will not be armed with either non-lethal or lethal weapons.

Guess you never heard of a gun safe to keep your firearms locked up and away from children or anyone else. I have never had one of my firearms accidentally discharge cause I know how to safety check and handle my weapons.

[Kulvich]

Anyone else actually defended themselves or someone they knew with a gun? I have on a few occasions.

First was about a year ago. I was driving and a reckless driver passed and almost struck me, so I honked my horn. He slammed on brakes in front of me to a complete stop right in the middle of the highway. I almost rear ended him. His passenger stuck his head out the window to glare at me. I passed and went around and was just going to leave him behind, and they started following me. I told my girlfriend in the passenger seat of my car to dial the police. She described their vehicle and mine, and I relayed the direction of travel and our location.

Well, this car continues to follow me into a parking lot, tailgating me the whole way. As soon as I stopped, two guys get out of the car and approach me. One of them saying, "You think you're tough by honking at us m*therf*cker?! I'll beat your ass!!" They both were ready to fight me and were coming up to my vehicle.

I got out the car and pulled the flap of my jacket back, exposing my Glock. They both stopped dead in their trucks, one of backing away. I told them both to stay where they were because the cops were on their way, and not to go to their vehicle to reach for any weapons.

The cops arrived about 30 seconds later and approached me first. I showed them my concealed carry and explained everything. Apparently, they knew one of the guys because they dealt with him on multiple occasions.

The cops asked if I wanted to press assault charges on two guys, and I told them I didn't. Then the cops yelled at both and I went on my way.

Yeah, the cops came within a minute, but a lot can happen within a minute.

And that's one of MANY reasons why I carry a gun.

[jason_bh]

GJ, pal.

Go ahead and make that bet. He is a responsible gun owner that has a license to carry. He is trained on the proper way to handle a weapon. Should he ever need to defend his kids (which he doesn't have) he would be able to.

Saying something like you just said is stupid. Your child could die (hopefully not) from a guy with a gun or by just walking down the street with just the same probability that his could. The difference here is that should either of you be faced with a situation where it is a criminal, who stands a better chance at protecting their child?

By simply having the gun in your home it's more likely that a family member will be killed than an intruder. Of course you can say the same thing for bread knives and shower curtains, but if you have a firearm in your home then statistically it's more likely that you'd either accidentally shoot the child, or he'd find the gun (or a friend would) and shoot himself.

\

Show us a statistic where this is true? Do you have any sources?

Also, as a responsible gun owner you should be teaching anyone in your home gun safety so that this doesn't happen. That's the part that you guys fail to understand. We are talking about responsible gun owners. People that take the time to teach their kids that ALL guns are loaded. ALL guns can kill. NEVER pull out a gun unless you are around. NEVER put your finger on the trigger unless you have a target. Etc.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Feel free to look up YOUR OWN COUNTRY'S crime rates for yourself, bud.

Exactly. Children and burglars can run around my house all they want.. They won't access my guns any time soon.

And I never had a firearm accidentally discharge either. lol.

[Farley1324]

Yeah...those studies/stats are always so completely fukking stupid when you actually look at what they are and what they mean.

And not only that, but I'm pretty sure he didn't even say what the "study" said, but put his own twist on it which doesn't even match the (completely bogus) "study".

Super massive fail all the way around

No *assault rifle* was used and any mass shooting, it was a semi auto not a full auto assault rifle. Before you ask the AR in AR-15 does NOT stand for assault rifle. It stands for the name of the company Armalite who first invented the the style of the rifle. AR stands for Armalite rifle.

[RH1N0BRAH]

because we realize that the way to make ur country safer isnt to give everybody guns (why stop at guns? if everybody had an apache attack helicopter everybody would be far safer)

Correct. An "AR15" is not an assault rifle.

And the one used in Newtown Connecticut wasn't even an "assault weapon" as defined by the government, because it was purchased legally and Connecticut has two "assault weapons" bans.

Your first couple posts seemed pretty reasonable. But now your scummy ****bag personality is shining through. Negged. Don't go away mad, just go away.

Give everybody guns? What on Earth are you referring to? Where is everybody given a gun?

[5TR0NGMAN]

Feel free to look up YOUR OWN COUNTRY'S crime rates for yourself, bud.

No need, I know that an american pos police officer who couldn't handle being fired isn't gonna break into my house and shoot me, meanwhile in america a kid kills all hos friends because he had a pokemon card he wanted. Sounds about right. Nice gun laws you got there bud.

[Farley1324]

Nice gun laws you got there

Thank you.

[RH1N0BRAH]

my post was pretty sarcastic and not really meant to be taken seriously but i think u know what im getting at
