Gun control laws do they work ?

[Nathan60]

Our Government is smart not trusting the general public, they can't even be trusted with kitchen knives.

The chance for the public to have easy access to guns would only up the rate of Gun crime; robberies and murders.

Before your goverment gets elected in who are they? They are the GENERAL PUBLIC woho cnat be trusted with  kitchen knives, but somehow once the Sheeple put them in and with The Monarchy's blessing they  can be trusted with nuke subs and Missiles

[Nathan60]

Wanna know what happens if you can defend yourself from the goverment?  Go googlge government massacres and se ejust how often it happens over there in the old world.

[RTHolmes]

Sorry but failed logic. In our cities with the stiffest gunlaws we have the worst murder rate.

the bold bit is crucial, we live in 2 very different societies. what works in one doesnt necessary work in the other. banning civilians from owning any firearms in the US makes about as much sense to me as importing 30 million assault rifles into the UK and telling people to help themselves.

 Are you allowed to shoot a Handgun or Rifle at the range in England? If no then less free.

Yes not automatics

I meant M16 halftrack

I don't think any of our current leaders (The Eton lot especially) would ever say they were apart of the general public.

And no, I don't trust any politicians with anything. An Armed populace does not automaticially make politicians anymore honest. (Which is what I believe is what your pushing.)

zack don't argue that point,  lots of people here believe the government is about to put us in concentration camps.

   This is true we are different societies and we handle our own issues the best we can. We all want peace and as little chaos in our lives as possible. If your system serves you well then God Bless
   Our system has served us well in some areas giving the freedom to the people so thier spirits can soar and created the powerhouse that spits money to all ends of the earth.
    But powerful enemies of freedom are out there and wish to control others.
   It's not about the guns              It's about the freedom.


 This is my last post in this thread. I'm suprised HT let it go this far. England is a fasinating place to us here in the states and we just wish the best for you Brits.

So the US has a Naval base in Cuba?

And it has a trade embargo with Cuba?

And Castro is still in charge?

So Castro has let the US into Cuba?

Can someone please verify the above, because its a bit confusing.

There's no need to be confused.... Google is your friend.

Yes, the U.S. has been in Guantanamo Bay since before there was a lease... 1898. I was assigned there from January 1976 through July 1977, flying Search and Rescue.

Yes, there is a trade embargo with Cuba. I think that the best way to democratize Cuba is to lift the embargo and allow trade and tourism.

Castro has stepped down and Raul Castro is the official head of the Government, but you can bet he dances to Fidel's tune.

The lease with Cuba expired in 2002... But the U.S. will not be leaving anytime soon. Castro cut off fresh water decades ago, and he stopped Cubans from holding jobs on the base (through attrition). He hasn't used a nickel of the "rent" paid to a special account.

I love the way you change your tune to suit the misguided point you are trying to make at any given time, they are not of the proletariat, as your politicians are not. The vast majority of MP's are from large country piles with a few Knighthoods and letters after their fathers names.

Not one Prime Minister has been of working class, not one US President has been "of the people" including Lincoln who said that. The closest you have come so far is Barrack Obama

The monarchy may be an anathema to you, but it is a symbol of this great country as much as its flag. I have all the admiration for them, especially for the members that put themselves in harms way on the front line, and have done throughout our history.

[danny76]

Can you unequivocally disprove they aren't?  Thats why thew Air Force is figthing the Cia right now in tunnels under California to prevent this
