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

[R3L3NTL3SS]

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)

You just came in hot with a bunch of full retard.

What an idiot.

[Farley1324]

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

What are you getting at?

[R3L3NTL3SS]

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.

Strong knowledge of anything that really happens in America.

[5TR0NGMAN]

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.

Lmfao *******, you negged me? Oh thats right, feedback that means nothing what so ever lol good job hero you just saved the day.

[Lightbulbs]

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?

Yes, I know what they are. I also know that smoking gives you cancer and not wearing your seatbelt increases your chances of death by massive factors - but people still do both don't they......

Yeah...no.

Complete bullshhit, that statement is.

Nope, several studies on it. Some are more contentious than others (E.g. Kellerman's). The rates of accidental discharge and injury far outstrip the rates of home intruders being shot/shot at/aimed at. Just in the same way that more chainsaw accidents occur via mishandling than attacks from other people. It's a pointless argument - but just illustrates that this 'I have a gun, now my family is safe' mentality doesn't hold true.

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.

There's various studies, I have no idea which one you are referring to.

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...

No misinformation. You also raise the point about responsible gun owners - and here is the common mistake. You all assume that all gun owners are responsible. I have no issue with gun ownership whatsoever, but your methods of control are awful. Congratulations on the fact you are well educated and know how to use a firearm safely. Are you telling me that everyone is like that? Some of you have contested my previous posts by saying 'well I keep my gun in a safe, so the study you quoted is bull****.' Seriously.......

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.

No misinformation, just an equally stupid response to pictures of CCTV cameras and the caption 'smile, you're on camera.'

What, you mean hollywood movies aren't accurate documentaries of real life?!

Likewise.

[Farley1324]

Still waiting.

Surely, Lightbulbs will deliver

Nope, several studies on it.

And every single one is somewhere between deceptive and intentionally misleading with a false "result", and an outright lie.

If you believe one that shows that is accurate then please, by all means, link that ****. Let's see its methods and its data.

[5TR0NGMAN]

A school full of dead children is proof enough no? Lmfao.

[FitStick]

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)

And then we can give everyone nukes too, everyone will be safer. And then we can make even more stupid, absurd arguments which make us look like idiots. At what point are you going to stop blaming objects instead the people doing the killing? I guess it's easier to point fingers at an inanimate object instead of taking responsibility.

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.

Nothing bad ever happens in the UK, strong argument. Here, let me go find 2 murders from the UK to counter your 2 examples from the US.

[CinciBoy23]

1. guns are fun as fuk to shoot, work on, collect, etc.

2. i'm not a professional MMA fighter or trained in martial arts, therefore I carry a loaded 9mm with 1 in the chamber at all times. I'm not going to be a victim to some punk or thug.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Yes, I know what they are. I also know that smoking gives you cancer and not wearing your seatbelt increases your chances of death by massive factors - but people still do both don't they......

Good job at another non gun related comeback.

[5TR0NGMAN]

"You have given out too much Measlie Negs in the last 24 hours, try again later"

Lol, somebody thinks reps means big business lmfao.

[Kulvich]

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.

I'm not a Yank, I'm a Rebel.

As for assault rifles, they're banned in America. The "assault rifles" that the media talk about are semi-automatic rifles made to look like military assault rifles.

Stabbings kill and shootings kill. Which can kill more? Depends on the circumstance. Gasoline can kill if you use it well too. And guess what? You don't need a background check to buy gasoline. Just go to the gas station, and fill up a few cans, and you can set arson to an occupied building and cause many deaths.

Your views are fine. If there were no guns at all in society, there would be no shootings. But before guns, people used swords, which caused much more gruesome deaths. It's completely fine to hate guns.

I like owning guns. I also prefer that my family defends themselves with guns instead of with a knife or crowbar.

[Farley1324]

A school full of dead children is proof enough no? Lmfao.

Proof that prohibiting guns at schools and thus ensuring madmen go unchallenged is a bad thing? You bet your ass it's proof of that.

No more criminal empowerment zones, please.

A law that says "you can't bring a weapon here" is no more effective than a law that says "you can't murder people"

[Driftslut]

Lol, somebody thinks reps means big business lmfao.

Wrong. Try again.

[5TR0NGMAN]

Find me a time when somebody killed a school full of kids and you might have something.

[QuickNutkus]

U.K has their people thinking they don't NEED guns. That's fine if that's how they want to live. Hell I wouldn't trust a ton of those immigrants with guns either.

However, I'd rather take my chances in a majority white neighborhood with everyone concealed carrying, than be unarmed in a "diverse" city filled with unruly youths carrying knives.

One is WAY more dangerous than the other in my opinion.

[Farley1324]

lulz all around!

Nice schools bro, bet your children feel safe. Bet their parents are glad they can have weapons in their house when their child has a bullet in their head because an american woke up and didn't have any poptarts so killed some kids to make him feel better.

[playahata99]

The reason is, Op, things like this happen:

Lol @ this being your one adn only arguemnt.
Meanwhile kids are murdered all the time in the UK, but since they weren't killed by firearms, only OTHER means of violence, it's ok.

The only thing Sandy Hook showed us is we need WELL TRAINED, armed people in schools.

[Lightbulbs]

Good job at another non gun related comeback.

No, it's entirely gun related, you just lack the intelligence to understand it. I spelled it out fairly clearly in the rest of the post......

I've got nothing against gun ownership. I've fired plenty of them myself (legally in the US). That said, you can't extend your own sensibilities onto the wider population.

Lol at the american mentioning immigrants.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

because an american woke up and didn't have any poptarts so killed some kids to make him feel better.

I think it was milk.

But you're really just pulling things out of your a*s out of pure desperation, now...

[darknessmanX]

therefore I carry a loaded 9mm with 1 in the chamber at all times.

... and that's 1 in the chamber! wu-tang banger, 36 styles of danger.

Somebody doesn't know the difference between 1 and many, ok bro no problem.

You're the one talking about intelligence, eh?

Here I was, just starting to question if the light bulb in your head still worked...

[R3L3NTL3SS]

No sir - MANY children are murdered in your country. All the time.
