What about GUN VIOLENCE down under? Did that not fall as expected (news reports I've read suggest the opposite, as gangs failed to submit to confiscation schemes-- still got those shocked faces on?).<br /><br />So this is the usual bait-n-switch bullsh*t that these numbskulls have been preaching for years. They use a "gun violence" metric because a true violent crime rate completely shatters their utopian European image. It's why Once-Great-Britain is now seeing knife-buy-backs.<br /><br />I for one, am tired of arguing with these idiots. As Joe Huffman says, They have crap for brains. You cannot present them with any rational, lucid, fact-based arguments to make them go away. I advocate for a less-stressful reply. A simple "F*ck off. I'm keeping my firearms," is all they will get from me anymore.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10008876440867581408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-31040593280689862262015-10-07T09:03:16.776-04:002015-10-07T09:03:16.776-04:00They aren't being honest yet. That's evid...They aren't being honest yet. That's evident in the fact that they continue to cite Australia as a potential example for the U.S. to follow. One problem though, America has a Bill of Rights that precludes the criminality of gun possession. To tell the real truth the left would need to state the following:<br /><br />We support the repeal of the 2nd Amendment and are willing to do significant damage to the 4th and 5th Amendments to eliminate private gun ownership in the U.S. It's for the children.Jay Nixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031750833658933314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-34847927832110963482015-10-06T16:37:12.283-04:002015-10-06T16:37:12.283-04:00Different causes for different events, but off the...Different causes for different events, but off the top of my head; the religion of peace that has a fantastic propaganda game, a mental health system that would be a joke if it wasn't hurting so many people,an administration that apparently believes the whole sale importing of people from third world shitholes with high rates of violent crime is a good thing, and of course, the race issue. parascribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07225539783729599316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-34996023723281298592015-10-06T15:28:51.659-04:002015-10-06T15:28:51.659-04:00The statistics are mind-blowing: America has 4.4 p...<b>The statistics are mind-blowing: America has 4.4 percent of the world's population but almost half of its civilian-owned guns.</b><br /><br />Here in Virginia, we like to call that, "Freedom", and we are for it.

Not surprising at all, it's been obvious behind the doublespeak for years. It's hardly an honest discussion about violence though, guns continue to be a red herring to draw away from the real causes that no one seems to want to discuss.parascribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07225539783729599316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-76782738037641920022015-10-06T11:13:40.718-04:002015-10-06T11:13:40.718-04:00I suspect and fledgling attempts will be met with ...I suspect and fledgling attempts will be met with compliance.<br />Until they are not.<br />Then it will get bloody very quickly.<br />And scary.<br /><br />Sigh.<br /><br />gfaGuffaw in AZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15356210589713923042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-75559166346496755892015-10-06T11:11:12.487-04:002015-10-06T11:11:12.487-04:00It's an interesting admission, indeed.
