Guns and butter Perth, Australia	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #72207 Jul 31, 2012 The gun nut Joker must be thrilled having had his tally doubled by a quirk of law when formally charged. This raises the stakes in the Gun nut mass murder Olympics where the contestants do not die. The next player will need to up his ordinance and carefully choose his killing field. The obvious choice would be a grassy knoll with a strategic view in range of roller coaster and other rides where the mass targets may be moving but are captive. Night time with a heavy calibre automatic weapon firing tracers could suffice. Perhaps some of the more technically savvy firearm experts may disagree with this and suggest lighter calibre silenced automatic weapons at say a spring break beach or city parade.

Oh, that's right, it is PUBLIC. You can attend those sermons. What does GOD ON EARTH, the Mormon Prophet, the President of the Mormon Church say to Bishoprick Romney, KKK Grand Wizard, in the Temple? Does he say goddamn Americans? Does he say go make war on Russia? Does he say install Mormon as the state religion? Oh, that's right, you do not know because you are not allowed into the Temple. You are NOT WORTHY of entering the "Lord's House." I swear, you and those Masons are so secretive.

Mormon was a cult of MONEY and GREED long before there was the fake Christian prosperity gospel junk. All of these crap cults are so antithetical to the best part of Christianity that they are all Anti-Christs. They are seriously despicable. Mormon-Scientology-ProsperityG ospel no difference in their clearly anti-Christian stance. Mormons have decided the Second Coming will be in Independence, MO five months after the White Horse Prophecy comes to its fruition and a Mormon is POTUS. Orrin Hatch believes it and even talks about it in his weird, coded language. Is there any question with rightwing fundamentalist crap slime greedy scumbags like this running big swaths of flyover country that the USA is in the slow growth situation it is? The GOPOX has become the party of charlatans, snake oil salesmen, pathological liars, tax dodgers, draft dodgers, incompetents and morons. Most days I am amazed that we are still standing given the fetid weight of Republiscums. ROTFLMAO You saved the good stuff for smoking in the wee hours of the morning didn't ya SUX.

WMCOL Since: Jul 10 12,437 Location hidden	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #72213 Jul 31, 2012 Why are U.K. gun makers some of the biggest exporters of guns that are used to wrongfully kill millions around the world, while anti-gun nuts sing praises to U.K. gun policies that leave most Brits unarmed?

More to the point of some of the recent posts: England has worse crime rate than the US. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/law-an... Now they have more rape, robbery, assault/battery. Often lost in the numbers is how many slime balls are taken out in the US. U.S. citizens carrying a pistol stop 2.5 million crimes per year. In that figure, armed women stop an estimated 10s of thousands of rape PER YEAR. You cant do that in the UK. It is illegal to use your firearm for personal defense in UK except northern ireland. ========== Robbed and raped but get to live? Not much of a life...

How will you use your shotgun for immediate danger if you have to keep it locked up, and the ammo in a separate place, "Keep your shotgun secured – for preference in a purpose-built gun cabinet – when not in use. Ensure that no-one else has access to the keys – remember it is YOUR responsibility to ensure that unauthorised persons (which includes anyone who hasn’t got a shotgun certificate) do not have access to your guns. Store your shotgun ammunition separately from your guns" http://www.basc.org.uk/en/codes-of-practice/s... You still have a lot of trouble making sense. How can anything that is locked up and needs to be loaded be used for any immediate danger? Maybe you meant you could use one for self defense if the bad guy tells you he is coming over, and will be there in about 5 minutes. That ought to be enough time to get your self defense weapon ready to use.

Have you ever watched the video? Um, if the Brits did not want the Indians to be in the Army, then why didn't the Indians get their own guns. oh yeah, the Brits did not allow Indians to own guns. How else were they deprived of guns? The Army just issues guns, the citizens can buy their own. Wait, Gandhi said the Brits deprived the whole nation! I saw the video, Janey got a gun because her stepdad was raping her and the law would not stop him. I would not have convicted her for shooting the stepdad. I bet you would have. SO what if they get death threats. Folks that live in NY and Chicago can't get a gun if they get death threats. Why do you think politicans have nmore rights than the citizens?

I am sure in your little world the bad guys wait till you have your gun loaded and ready for "immediate" self defense, but in the real world,(someplace you may someday understand) they tend to come when you are least prepared. Perhaps they have a sign on the door requiring the bad guys to knock and wait 5 minutes so the little helpless people can arm themselves. Sorry boney, the only point you have is on top of that pencil neck. heh heh heh, immediate danger, he he he, use their locked up gun, bwah hah hah

WTF? Are you really that out of touch with history? He's talking about collective arms in defense of India....not arming every lout individually. You said "Gandhi wanted a gun"...YET, that is not true. you took him out of context...like always:) "I used to issue leaflets asking people to enlist as recruits. One of the arguments I had used was distasteful to the Commissioner :'Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest. If we want the Arms Act to be repealed, if we want to learn the use of arms, here is a golden opportunity. If the middle class render voluntary help to Government in the hour of its trial, distrust will disappear, and the ban on possessing arms will be withdrawn.' The Commissioner referred to this and said that he appreciated my presence in the conference in spite of the differences between us. " The only virtue I want to claim is truth and non-violence. I lay no claim to superhuman powers. I want none. I wear the same corruptible flesh that the weakest of my fellow beings wears, and am therefore as liable to err as any.

In the US we DONT have to keep our guns locked up In the US we can keep our guns loaded and ready In the US would be theives and rapists are shot or sent running when the home owner readily presents a firearm. In the UK shooting deaths are down... but crime is up including rape. In the US 10s of thousands of women stop would be rapists by brandishing a pistol that is loaded and ready. IT is in the bill of rights to our constitution. It is a right that was SPECIFICALLY inserted just as the other 9. It is there for a reason (not hunting). If you do not agree with the constitution (the recipie for a free nation) you can either A: deal with it B: move to UK or Japan since you are so fond of them
