http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/crossing_continents/6266558.stm :shock: I'm all for people taking responsibility for their own safety and all but jesus... why not just wear a kevlar jacket and an army helmet all the time if you are that worried you'll be gunned down in a mad gun rampage ? probably got just as much chance of stopping you getting injured as you beating someone else in a wild west style draw, plus the air would be a less thick with lead for all the sane people walking by.

Crazy talk, unsurprising from the yanks. I think that women needs it pointing out to her that the more people who carry guns then perhaps the more people will use them?

It's absolutely fucking mental. It's also one pretty fucked up nation. I'm fully expecting it to split apart in a not really that violent civil war.

I think that women needs it pointing out to her that the more people who carry guns then perhaps the more people will use them? plus the nutter got the gun one of two ways: legally, in which case their control system is crap; or illegally, he stole one or bought a stolen one which is hugely helped by the fact there are so many legal guns around to steal, in which case their system is crap.

Fucking yanks. They're just super paranoid.... At least they have a sense of humour... "Imagine you are in a restaurant and a mad man is walking around from table to table, pointing a gun, taking aim and pulling the trigger, going to the next person, taking aim, pulling the trigger and so on," I mean... You know... Just imagine that... :-))(

It was October 1991 when a gunman entered the diner where Suzanna, a Texan chiropractor, was having lunch with her parents.
The man methodically executed 23 people including Suzanna's parents

They're seriously fucked up.
For there to be gun crime, there needs to be guns. Ergo, take the fucking guns away!!

It is certainly odd walking in a Wallmart, going up to what looks like a jewellery counter and finding it full of guns and ammo. Almost tempting in fact.

I just get wound up by this. American's think they need guns to defend themselves from people with guns.
Don't something like 5% of American's have a passport? If more of them got out of the States once in a while perhaps they would see that it is possible to live without gun crime being a major part of life. Funnily enough, I don't think I've ever seen a handgun in my life....and guess what, I don't know anybody who's bee shot either!!!
:-))( Americans!
