It makes sense doesn't it? You need more guns because everybody has guns. As i see it, it's an irreversible situation and the main politial sponsors get what they payed for.
In Britain you get a 10 year jail sentence if you get caught with a gun on you, a sentence very close to what you would get if you killed someone. That is not using a gun but having a gun on you. This is very harsh but asks your self, why would anyone carry a gun?

the problem is not the licensing, legislation or jail sentences...
the problem is that people want guns! the problem is that everyone agrees: "of course we don't want violence! we don't want wars! we don't want guns!" but when it comes down to it, the majority don't mean what they say. i always get the argument about the others.. "we have to defend ourselves..." we fvcking are the others! every single one of us. |

Where I live is also banned to have gun without a reason. Even if you only want to shoot animals you have to subscribe to one official association, be there at least 2 years (helping members with their work, feeding animals etc.) and then you can START to ask for the permission. To carry guns (at home only) are also allowed proffesional policemen, soldiers and - after making several requests and psychological tests - people who's life can be in serious danger. |

Oy!
nyc & malina: I agree 100%. If I were in your situation, zenbabe, I would feel sick in the stomach.
Do you live in national city or something? I know someone who lives on Imperial Ave. across the street from the KFC, on the bottom of a hill. It’s a bad neighborhood and gun violence is common. Also, I have a friend who is a total libertarian and he believes we should exercise our right to bear arms and protect ourselves. Of course, that goes back to what malina wrote. My point is, I can understand a persons motivations to get a gun, especially when that person lives in a dangerous area. Tangentially, my cousin, the sheriff deputy, carries his gun with him everywhere... I guess my past life as a pirate has left me jaded about guns and killing... |
