If someone wants a gun because they're willing to shoot someone in the guise of 'self defence', then they're a pending criminal and not someone that should be owning a gun.
That is incorrect. Self defense is not a crime.
Correct, but not a suitable character to do so.
Nonsense. There is nothing wrong with being willing to defend yourself.
If someone applies for a gun here in the UK and states the purpose was for self defence, denied, not a suitable character.
That's because the UK is not free.
That reduces gun incidents, hence the problem you guys experience.
We are not experiencing any problems.
The chances of violent crime is miniscule;
People have the right to defend themselves regardless.
claiming criminals is just a wash, rinse, repeat deflection crap tactic.
Not at all. Free people have the right to have guns to protect themselves.
Correct, hence the high gun incidents
So what? The victims would be just as dead if they were killed with a different kind of weapon.
Not at all. Gun availability has little impact on homicide rates.
There's a thread on it in the clean debate zone. The gun nuts never posted on it because it highlights their ignorance and lies.
It does no such thing. We don't post on the thread because it doesn't say anything objectionable. It just talks about a couple of shooting cases in the UK.
What is it about Freedom Haters that they always resort to name-calling?

Every time you guys open your mouths, it paves the way on why they should be regulated like many other countries.
No. There is never a good reason to abolish freedom.
Won't apply to all suicides, but anyone displaying suicidal tendencies who owns a gun, doctor and/or family members could raise the concern to the police to have his/her guns removed until they're mentally fit to have them back.
That policy would ensure that suicidal people would start avoiding visits to doctors who could help them.
Progressives always make everything worse.
If the burglar is running away a d you shoot at him/her, is it reasonable force?
It is in Texas.
Can you supply me a list of what makes Americans free but not Brits, New Zealanders, and Aussies.
Free people have the right to keep and bear arms.
People who do not have the right to keep and bear arms, are not free.
But in the mean time, could you supply me a list of what you believe why you are free and no one else is. Do you think you could do that?
America is free because Americans have the right to keep and bear arms.
It appears that the Czech Republic and the Baltics are free too. Good for them.
No one else is free, because no one else has the right to keep and bear arms.
Ok, do you a link where there's a UK law that confiscates people's properties?
He was referring to your restrictive gun laws taking people's guns away from them.
