Iraq? Don't make me laugh- we're there for at least for(four) more years no matter who's President.

I hope you are right.  I'm concerned we will have to have a semi-permanant force there.

but I'd rather the island stay this way than have everyone brandishing guns thanks very much.

Where does everyone brandish a gun? Besides maybe... places like mogadishu?

Unfortunately gun control will be just about the only issue us voters can actually make a difference on in November. No other hot button issue can be changed- abortion? We'll still have them, even if McCain is elected. Capital punishment? It won't stop with Obama or Hillary. Iraq? Don't make me laugh- we're there for at least for more years no matter who's President.

Vote Democrat and we'll have more gun control laws, vote Republican and we'll have more erosion of the rest of our civil liberties.

Sad we call this democracy.

Democracy is the worst form of government.  Except for all the others.

Official 2007 crimes involving firearms in Great Britain:




Yes I know the figures on the chart aren't correct.  The chart itself is correct though. 18,489 recorded crimes involving a firearm.
At least 46% of all firearms offences in this country last year were with illegally owned weapons (handguns and sawn off shotguns) and a large percentage of the rest with merely imitation firearms........and still the liberals are screaming for more constraints.  <insert old rolleyes smilie>

And it's all cos of that numbnuts in Dunblane.  Actually, no, lemme rephrase that, it's all cos of that numbnuts in Dunblane, the other one in Hungerford and thousands of screaming liberals with nothing better to do than stick their bloody noses in.

I wanna consealed carry license and a .45!

Hey wurzel...I hope you you decide to come to the US...know we'd love to have ya.  Having met you in person, I can truly say America needs more folks like you.  You fit in just fine...but with some slight "adaptations"...

When the time comes, splurge...get some really BIG guns.  Get LOTS of guns.  Then come to Arkansas and be my guest.  We have deer, bobcats, mountain lions, bears, squirrels, coyotes, wild turkeys, wild boar (razorbacks), and there are rumored to be panthers.  Bring your guns.  We will shoot stuff in the deerwoods.  

A gun "too big"...not in Arkansas.  "Not much left to eat"?..not in Arkansas.  

We'll get some 88mm AA guns and go deer hunting.  Who cares if there's not enough to eat...we'll grab a Sonic burger & onion rings on the way home.  We passed three Sonics and 2 McDonalds on the way there, right?  Some of 'em are good eatin'....the rest Cod intended for us to take a bead on and blow up just for grins.  If it tastes like chicken, grab some BBQ sauce and fire up the grill...if it don't...blow it to smithereens for fun...that's why Smith & Wesson makes hollow points.

After that we'll get some hand grenades and go fishing.

Take a flanel shirt and rip the arms off...get yourself a baseball hat with a rebel flag on it...call everyone you see "Bubba", and get a wallet on a chain.



We'll have you turned into a proper redneck in no time!  :aok

Then you can send pictures of yourself back to the UK...and they will go..."dayumm...I ain't gonna mess with Gary!"

The nation definately has problems.  Always has, always will....but I loath you people that always talk as if your life sucks from living in these United States....truth is your lives probably do suck and would always suck wherever you call home.

Dont be such a drag all the time.  Be happy :)

I`m get a little more "clingy" that what I already was.
Anyone that enjoys such minor things as freedom and personal rights , I would advise to do the same.
Freedom comes at a very high price. It can only be taken if you give it away.
Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.

Yeager, my life doesn't suck- in fact it's pretty damn good, because I am a Liberal Elitist. My hand wringing is over the plight of the Board Neocons- the little people.

I'm all about compassion.

swoop.. far as I am concerned.. you can live near me and have a CCW and a .45 anytime.. none of my business what kind of gun you own or if you carry it or not.   Unlike others.. I don't think I am your new mommy.

curval..  Not sure if you are being evasive or just dingy.  Now you are saying that besides the middle ages style penalties you have imposed on otherwise law abiding citizens... that it doesn't matter anyway cause... You don't have a gun culture?

I would say it probly is not too big a deal anyway cause so long as your amusement park of an island stays wealthy.. and there is no disaster (man made or natural) of any size....   You should be fine in your womb of false security.     Probly be fine for years.

yep.. I feel like I don't have much choice either and will have to vote based on just a couple of issues like guns and vouchers and taxes and maybe getting some oil exploration done and some nukes and slowing creeping socialism and making sure the liberal SC judges aren't appointed....

well. guess that was more than a few but still.....
