If ONE U.S. Marine had been sitting in that theater with a weapon things probably would have turned out differently!
That's what I love about gun control....people think criminals will follow the law....LOLOLOLOLOL
Hey Joe. What about accidental gun deaths. Who leads the world in kids getting killed by guns?
Who leads the world in murder by gun? Who leads the world in armed citizens? Who leads the world in the amount of money spent on guns and ammo by its citizens.
Who says America isn't a world leader still?

I think the thing is, the gun has always been a part of our culture.
I don't think we should have gun control on the level the UK has. The UK is a different culture, one we split from hundreds of years ago, and that's fine. I have no problem with private gun ownership if there is responsibility attached to it. Which does not mean, "the person everyone knew was crazy can go down to the Bass Pro Shop and buy a 100 bullet drum clip!"
But when you have a shooting incident, and instead of sitting down and having a rational discussion like 'How do we prevent the next James Holmes from being able to assemble an arsenal?" we get a discussion like "Wouldn't it have been nice if people in the theatre were shooting back?" And people say this with an absolute straight face.
When we have an organization like the NRA advocating for people to carry a concealed weopon in a bar, you realize how far out that organization has become. The putting of guns on a pedestal in this nation has gone beyond insanity.

There 100's of thousands of trained and competent concealed permit carriers across the country who could have potentially stopped the attack.
You should visit one of the hundreds of beginner to advanced defensive shooting courses and competitions every week around the country.

You're right. I don't bother with IRRELEVENT information.
How is anything on that chart relevent, other than we are behind a lot of impoverished countries with unstable governments, most of them plagued by drug trafficking and crime?
Somehow, saying, "Well, dammit, we're better than Thailand!" doesn't fill me with some great pride, and I'm not sure why you are.
I want us to be better than everyone. I want us to look up, not down.
Hey Joe you notice anything else?
Those with stricter gun control have a higher rape count

YOu mean that he actually tried to stop the flow down to Mexico, and was shot down by the gun nutters who insisted that the Mexicans weren't getting guns from here?
