What I was wondering is where are all the gun owners. Don't they continually tell us they are the last line of defense against tyranny? What the hell are they waiting for?
The fact is they are powerless to stop the terrible slide which is ongoing. The United State is less free than it has ever been and all their guns are useless to stop it.
If and when I am B3, I'll be happy to admit I'm wrong.
Y'all haven't shown that to be the case so far.
And you gun nuts certainly haven't shown that Mikeb was incorrect, or countered the gun culture violence victims assertion that the gun culture kills, injures and threatens more of us than the non-gun cultures do in foreign countries with effective gun control - like Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and western Europe.
dog gone..."that the gun culture kills, injures and threatens more of us than..."
I suppose one way that we can measure the effect of the "gun culture" on crime in the US is looking at violent crime rate and compare that to the violent crime rate in CA, AU and NZ (non-gun culture)
US 2010 Violent Crime Rate (FBI UCR) 403.6 CA 2010 Violent Crime Rate (Statistics CA) 899 AU 2007 Violent Crime Rate (AU Ins. of Criminology)1024.3 NZ 2010 Violent Crime Rate (NZ Crime Stats) 1152.68

Dog Gone, the people that Lionel was criticizing are the same people that you claim keep us safe. You've now been shown.

By the way, was Mikeb calling for an armed insurrection in this article?
ReplyDeleteNo, I was pointing out how foolish you are for boasting that you and your armed friends will keep the country free from government oppression.
