ExAFO 0 #8 January 17, 2008 QuoteDude, what is up with your gun obsession in Europe? I'd say it stems from the unearned air of intellectual superiority inherent in the condescending nature of the posts of those in Europe (and those Carpetbaggers from Europe who want to import their phobia and need for a nanny state) when it comes to the fact that in the US we are not willing to give up our rights to self defense. It's a case of one group telling the other how to live our lives. Fuck off. I'm an American, and I don't give a flying fuck (or any other variety of fuck) how Europeans run their respective countries. You want to pooh-pooh our laws?

Dear, I didn't find any Thread Here Where Europeans Are Going To Slag Off Your "Rights...." (including your 2nd Amendment). If you feel offended by threads about mass shootings in American schools, malls, cities etc., which permanently are on front pages of papers - that's different. Most non-Americans just see the violence behind that, partially caused more than 200 million guns in private hands. I do not need same situation here. Perhaps Mr. Clever-John-McCain could convince us of the contrary? ("No guns for bad guys!") What a strong argument! Bwahahaha.... I'm sure nobody from the other side of the pond wants to scratch anything off your laws. Enjoy them like we do with ours. PS: Oh well, JohnRich, don't let go and let nobody stop you in your holy cruisade - how about another European country, such like Switzerland f. e., where relationship between citizen:gun is about 2:1??? Ever had a look at their "crime gun rate"? (It's a lot of google-ing around, I know I know but ...) dudeist skydiver # 3105 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps self-explanatory? Once more for those who don't seem to get it...The people cause the crimes, not the weapons. To quote the Petitioner's brief: Quote....as a matter of constitutional law, citizens do not enjoy any positive right to police protection. iDeShaney v. Winnebago County Dep’t of Social Servs., 489 U.S. 189 (1989); Castle Rock, 545 U.S. 748. THAT is why I should be allowed to own and carry a weapon for my self defense. Until we all get our own armed bodyguard paid for by the govt, I should be allowed the right to defend myself. I'll end with another quote from that brief: Quote"[w]hatever right the Second Amendment guarantees, it does not require the District to stand by while its citizens die."Illinois needs a CCW Law.

When shall issue laws were being contemplated in Texas a survey of the sherifs were done. About 60% or more (if I remember correctly) were against this type of state law. 10 year later the same survey was done again. Nearly 100% of those surveyed said that there were no problems and they thought the law was good.They know. Your "bad" guys know. (I know it's only the bad guys which put their hands on weapons, I know) Holy Christ, just open your newspapers every morning (perhaps available at your place, too?)and this statement proves what? Nothing and only goes to show your position and anti gun stance and have a look. And after, ask yourself the question why the heck another gun shooting tragedy took place, and where the hell, all those weapons are coming from? Hint: Availability at every corner.
