I feel so much love in this thread!!! YAY!!!!

One can apply for ownership of guns in our country. Yes, the StG44 is for my son. His name is Harry? Why do you try to hurt EnglishPete so when you know he knows you have the hots for him!?!

"Hey, you're the hater that keeps making outrageous statements about people with guns shooting their neighbors in the back. You have to be one angry liberal idiot to make the statements you make. Maybe you're the one who needs to refresh your faulty memory."

nope. I said people who shouldn't be qualified to own guns shooting their neighbors accidently in the back when the [censored] hit's the fan. You came up with your own translation. Mine is that NO, HELL NO, do I feel every idiot in America is qualified to own firearms. We've all seen plenty of people who are obviously not playing with a full deck and shouldn't be armed....and when people start foaming at the mouth and stocking up for armegedon, although I am not a psychiatrist, I'd call that extreme paranoia which is a psychosis and I'm sure all would agree we'd like to keep firearms out of the hands of mentally unstable people.

EP, didn't you have two sons? I thought your pistol only fired one shot? Are you sure the other one is yours?

Must be a slow melt this spring because a lot of people appear to be slippin'.

"In your opinion"

Actually I said "in my opinion". Still not quite sure what your opinion is but it sounds similar to the GOP party line right now which is disagree with everything, spin what you can and offer nothing of substance. Is that all ya got AM?

Aunty-

Why do you persist with this nonsense? When we previously debated this issue, I provided factual evidence that I was twice as likely to be killed during a criminal act in your country as opposed to mine. If you are unable to refrain from telling "the big lie" I will have to put you down with JKook as a subscriber to Völkischer Beobachter.

And before you reply with "you Brits don't report the actual crimes that occur in your country," I can make the same retort about the USA. Let us see some REAL numbers on rape, pedophilia, incest, armed robbery, etcetera in the USA.

Finally, the boldened type above is true in this respect - violence will never go away. However, we do not have gun murder/violence in our country like you do in yours.

Your recent posts make me believe that either caveman or brewer has gotten ahold of your password.

Uh-oh, more blood in the water.

E P,

In a loud Coughing voice... [censored]. while there might be a bigger chance of being killed in a violent crime in the US, your chances of being involved in a violent crime are twice as high in the UK.

Persistent in her spin isn't she. AM knows full well the ongoing debate/rehash which is not about my wanting guns banned but wanting those who are out stocking up out of fear exposed for what they are. Same mass histeria that got us into a wrong war. Now even if the "assault weapon ban" were reinstated why are they stocking up on pistols?
Anyone in their right mind believe all guns will be banned?

As far as England versus the US I'm willing to bet people report crimes at a higher rate than here in the US especially where crime is highest in our inner city problem areas. You don't bring the cops in if you want to survive.

are all of your opinions based on guesses?

They have the same inner city problems we have..

"are all of your opinions based on guesses?"

Prove me wrong. It's what is NOT accounted for in the polls yet a huge problem for law enforcement having people come forward.

"The largest number of gangs are said to be in Hackney, east London (22 gangs); Enfield in north London (13); Lambeth and Merton in south London (12 gangs each); Waltham Forest in north east London (11) and Brent in north west London (11).

Gangs were found to have around 20 to 30 members, and to commit crimes in smaller groups of three to six. "

Whereas direct from the FBI:

"About 20,000 violent street gangs, motorcycle gangs, and prison gangs with approximately 1 million members are criminally active in the U.S. today. Many are sophisticated and well organized; all use violence to control neighborhoods and boost their illegal money-making activities, which include drug trafficking, robbery, theft, fraud, extortion, prostitution rings, and gun trafficking. Here, you'll find more on the threats posed by gangs, on how you can help spot and prevent gang activity, and on how we're redoubling our efforts to disrupt and dismantle them through intelligence-driven investigations and new initiatives and partnerships."

So you compare the total number of gangs in London to the total number of gangs in the U.S.A.?

Good point. his first link specified the entire UK of which 3/4's are in their cities. Here's from 2002:

"Alarming figures suggest there are now as many as 30,000 gang members across England and Wales and the numbers are rising rapidly. The number of gang members aged under 16 has doubled in the past year and nearly half of all gang murders committed with firearms now involve victims under the age of 18. "

Anyway, so AM or Willamette or whomever, please show me where I advocated banning all firearms or revoking the second ammendment.

And Willamette, what does the UK have to do with anything I've posted?

Still no gun grabbers. Maybe they are at Todds.

No Hankster, you can't possibly fish. You spend all day every day posting here on this BBS between sun up and sun down. So maybe you should STFU and go fish for once.

Furthermore: You've been the one pissing ad moaning ever since that guy who's picture you jack off to every night lost the election last November. Not Me.

PS I'm still waiting for that Sharia Law you promised us.

bitter libs are funny....you crack me up

WilldamitLiverScofflaw-

I will make this very simple for you:

For the years 2005/2006, there were 746 murders in England and Wales. 50 murders were by gun.

Please compare both these numbers to just the number of homicides commited yearly in your country by gun. Next, compare them to all the homicides commited in your country.

And you need not worry about the crime rate of our country as we do not want you here for any reason.
