James Wilkinson was thinking very hard :

Most of these people had no eye and ear protection either. Posting stupid comments on guns here is stupid too. I don't recall anyone ever suggesting that everyone should own a gun. I did however once suggest that everyone in the USA could have a gun registered (faux registration) to them as a matter of being born. That way, a gun ownership registry wouldn't be as useful to someone wanting to 'locate the arms, and disarm the citizenry' yet any registered gun used in a crime (with SN intact) would still be able to be traced back to the registered owner. This was in response to a often repeated misquote supposedly from Adolf Hitler, but was something I actually had on a coin I owned which was from an organization I can't recall. It might have been the NRA in response to a push for registration. It said (Quoting from memory): "To enslave a nation, first locate the arms, then disarm it." The first thing I'd do as an American if I was going to shoot someone is use somebody else's gun. Since most houses have a gun, that would be blatantly easy to achieve. https://www.google.com/#q=do+most+americans+have+guns You're not very keen on using facts are you. I'll use the one you just gave me - there's a higher than 1 in 3 chance of me stealing a gun form a random house. So I break into three houses and become equipped to be a murderer. 1 in 3 is "most" in your world? I guess that makes you smarter than "most" then. LOL |

It's very obvious that high profile people need protecting from deranged people. They would be an obvious target for terrorists. Surely you can see that logic. So only the elite have a right to be protected from deranged people. The Liberal/Leftist media never hysterically reports on everyday law abiding citizens who defend themselves, their family, other people and their property with a gun in a situation where no shots are fired. On more than one occasion I've caused miscreants to change direction when they just thought I was armed. I've never pointed a real gun at anyone or of course shot anyone. The closest I've ever come to killing a man was with my bare hands. I'm no longer able bodied and physically able to defend myself but I can aim a gun and pull the trigger. A bullet in the groin and in the head of a thug will stop him cold plus save taxpayers a lot of money. As seen in the recent terrorist attacks, the terrorists are not attacking people protected by a cadre of armed guards, the terrorists are attacking people who they know are not likely to be armed and able to defend themselves. Where I'm from, there have been no terrorist attacks in public spaces because the terrorists know that a number of people in any group will be armed and able to quickly put a stop to an attack. Heck, a lot of women around here have concealed carry permits and the last thing any thug or terrorist wants to do threaten a woman who's armed with a gun. ^_^ [8~{} Uncle Armed Monster |

We've probably got more than 30 screwdrivers in every size from "need to use a loupe to see the screw head" to "this thing really is a pry bar, isn't it?" If you count driver bits for the drill, it's probably more like 100. Sounds like we need to buy a few more guns, just for parity. Cindy Hamilton |

Prove me wrong. Who advocated "for everyone to own a gun". Give me URL links. Bitch. You have on average slightly more guns than people. So unless you have a whole rack of them each, most people must have a gun. People who own guns tend to own more than one. It's like tools. Who has just one screwdriver? Because nobody bothers sticking to standards, there are several dozen types of screwdriver. However with a gun you only need a few. We've probably got more than 30 screwdrivers in every size from "need to use a loupe to see the screw head" to "this thing really is a pry bar, isn't it?" If you count driver bits for the drill, it's probably more like 100. Sounds like we need to buy a few more guns, just for parity. Guns don't have so many uses. -- How do you titillate an ocelot?

Here in The U.S., all of the anti-gun, anti Second Amendment politicians have armed guards around them. I imagine that your Queen and Prime Minister also have armed guards around them. I wonder if they and our politicians who are so anti- gun will give up the armed guards as a show of good faith to demonstrate that the citizenry has no need of guns to defend themselves, their families and their property? I'm all for disarming anti-gun, anti-self defense politicians anywhere in the world. Let them call the police and wait just like the everyday citizen. ^_^ [8~{} Uncle Armed Monster That's a flawed argument. It's very obvious that high profile people need protecting from deranged people. They would be an obvious target for terrorists. Surely you can see that logic. So only the elite have a right to be protected from deranged people. No, just the 10000 times more likely to be targeted. The Liberal/Leftist media never hysterically reports on everyday law abiding citizens who defend themselves, their family, other people and their property with a gun in a situation where no shots are fired. Nope, because the ones where the bad guy has the gun make better news. Didn't you now bad guys use guns too? On more than one occasion I've caused miscreants to change direction when they just thought I was armed. I've never pointed a real gun at anyone or of course shot anyone. The closest I've ever come to killing a man was with my bare hands. I'm no longer able bodied and physically able to defend myself but I can aim a gun and pull the trigger. A bullet in the groin and in the head of a thug will stop him cold plus save taxpayers a lot of money. As seen in the recent terrorist attacks, the terrorists are not attacking people protected by a cadre of armed guards, the terrorists are attacking people who they know are not likely to be armed and able to defend themselves. Where I'm from, there have been no terrorist attacks in public spaces because the terrorists know that a number of people in any group will be armed and able to quickly put a stop to an attack. Heck, a lot of women around here have concealed carry permits and the last thing any thug or terrorist wants to do threaten a woman who's armed with a gun. ^_^ A terrorist with dynamite strapped round himself will not be stopped by a gun. -- A great way to lose weight is to eat naked in front of a mirror.
