It seems I should have used 'snickering', if I didn't want to get filtered.

If he'd had a gun, maybe he wouldn't have gotten shot.

Too bad that happend, It looks like you guys need guns then.

But as I said in a earlyer post there is no need for it in my country and that is what i was talking about.

But Why do you get critical about other countries like britain, norway or other euro lands that manage fine without handguns beeing carried around by everyone that feel for it.
That cannot be a problem for Americans at all in my eyes, you guys try sort out your own problems first.

(We got criminals in euroland too, but they seems to be "nicer/not that trigger happy" like american criminals by some reason)

I can't speak for everyone else, but I'm not critical about countries that don't allow guns.  If you're comfortable with it, that's fine.  It's your country.

I like my guns.  I enjoy the sport and security they provide.  I love the history.  I still have a German gun that was brought back by my great uncle in WWII, and handed down.  I look forward to handing it down to my children.  

It's all about your comfort level.  I'm not comfortable with the government disarming me.  If you are, it's none of my business.

He was a criminal.   If you take guns away from the people, only the criminals will have them.  

You still haven't answered my question in the other thread.  Was that a baseless hit and run that I can just discredit, like the other trash you spew?

He would have been bonked on the head, or run through, strangled,or perhaps even shot with a crossbow. Or not as apperantly murder was invented with blackpowder.

You dont need a gun in Ohio  you barbarians! Your car should be able to outrun a bullet.

Of course there is something to be learned from the Viking Age, if there is a viking knocking on your door you better have a bigger sword or a bow. otherwise your possesions and wife are taking a trip to Norway.

All the crime I've seen in euroland have been commited by 3rd world refugees from such happy lands as somalia,rwanda, serbia. They used knives,clubs, a pack of em jumped an old woman in the subway in front of me and about 10 other germans.

From my perspective, the whole gun thing started here when Beetle went on a one-man crusade to interject America's gun laws into nearly every single discussion he entered.

 I'll bet the carjacker purchased his legally....lol.Even if guns were harder to get,carjackers would find a way to get a gun.Pretty hard to do it with a knife through a window of a locked car.

Sox62,

More legal guns means more illegal guns.
