All I am saying is that the problem is with the man, not the weapon. Saying this was the guns fault is like saying Ozzy Osborne’s music caused some kid to off himself. Or a video game was to blame for any other heinous act by a human being.0

Sorry ... The generalizations in this thread are annoying. Americans do this and Americans do that ... Yes, I think LAW-ABIDING people should have a right to own a firearm for non-criminal purposes. Apparently this means I am ignorant and backward.0 -

For all you know this guy was a law abiding citizen before he went on the rampage."I am a doughnut." (live - Berlin, Germany - 11/03/96)

You do realize that the majority of murders my country are actually done WITHOUT firearms?0 -

imagine if we all had access to a nuclear weapon.. and one day some mental fucker used his and blew up Iceland (sorry Iceland.. random!!) of course it would be the mentalists fault he killed all those people... now imagine the same scenario where no-one has access to a nuclear weapon... one day a mental fucker blews up nothing... he's still a mental fucker but all he days now is wank all day and stick penguins up his arse..
take away the gun and you still have a mad mental dude... but he might only kill himself or a dog or something... i doubt he would attack a whole school using a water pistol... not really the same carnage is it!oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.0 -
according to dunkman when we get rid of guns we will have no one dying.....because you know before the invention fo the gun no one ever died.
Lol thank god in america we are allowed to keep our guns!America...the greatest Country in the world.0 -

And for all you know, this guy would have killed one or more people even without a gun.0 -

Majority? Please provide figures to back that up. It doesn't matter anyway, one innocent kid being shot is too many, I can't believe you're justifying it."I am a doughnut." (live - Berlin, Germany - 11/03/96)

So your argument is keep the gun because people will kill each other anyway?"I am a doughnut." (live - Berlin, Germany - 11/03/96)

And I can't believe that you actually think that guns magically transform people into killers.
Go to the Stats Canada website. I think its http://www.statscanada.ca0 -

of course the guy is to blame... he pulled the trigger!!! take away the trigger and the guy would have been shouting BANG!!! and that girl would just have a sore ear rather than be dead!!!oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.0 -
And I welcome anyone's attempt to locate a post where I actually justify people dying. Go on ... Give it a go.0

DUnkman and push' arguments are severly flawed...no reason to argue with illogical peopleAmerica...the greatest Country in the world.0

Yes, its by someone who obviously disagrees with our gun registry (with good reason). You can dismiss it as a biased source, but the part about murder stats is accurate.0 -

wheres the flaw? where's the non-logic of my points?
since 1994 as a result of the Dunblane massacre in Scotland handguns were banned here in the UK... in the ten years since this law was passed gun-related deaths have halved!
at least i can argue and back up my arguments with fact and reasoned logic.. you continue to spew forth arrogant jibes that dont even begin to permeate my resolve on this issue... you are verbally redundantoh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.0 -

Maybe so, but I have stats that show that restrictive gun laws don't work, at least here.
This suggests that the story is deeper than just more laws, no?0
