Here in England we're 99% disarmed, so we get our fishing knives, kitchen knives, baseball bats etc and carry on regardless if we feel the need. Can't stamp out violent behavior completely, this isnt Demolition Man where society has evolved beyond violence... what a joke.

Hold onto your guns, for freedom and democracy [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
didn't B&E go waaaay up when England outlawed guns and weapons and sharp sticks?

Yeah, basically we don't have the right to defend our own property. A good example is a farmer who shot and killed 1 of 2 burglars (pikeys)... got convicted for murder and that had everyone going nuts. Ended up only serving 3 years but still... :/

Ask any family man if he wouldn't take a baseball bat to burglars in his house even now... the law will come down hard on him for it.

You could always come to Merica as an illegal immigrant Swish. The gov here would give you a welcome package and point you to a fast food joint where you'd make as much per hour as a 1st-year elementary school teacher does, but without needing any education or a criminal record clear of sexual offenses!

Then you could buy a gun and we could go to the range together!

It's crossed my mind. I almost think I'd have to be mute so as not to be deported back to England if caught.

I'll make it legally one day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't support the guy who killed the lion. I would never go to Africa, or anywhere else, to kill an endangered animal. But why yell redneck? Why act like a bigot? Don't you think if you cared, you'd propose a law to ban America citizens from trophy hunting abroad? I'm sure the NRA would crush the bill, but wouldn't that be a logical way to solve this? Yelling white trash and threatening this dentist's life accomplishes nothing except to make people look petty. Is that so hard to understand? You really think I'm an idiot because I believe people who are activists should actually propose something to fix an issue that they claim to care about?

I took 2 seconds to think of an idea how we could help. Ban US citizens from hunting abroad. Wasn't that more satisfying than doing nothing other than yelling into the echo chamber of the Internet?
PS, if you start that petition on whitehouse.gov, I will sign it.

God Bless
What use is signing a petition that does nothing?

The accomplishment in threatening the dentists life/family/business is more likely to act as a deterrent than any petition ever will.

Zimbabwe wants to extradite him. Which is a huge joke in itself (but not if it was the other way round)

tl;dr if guns were banned this would never have happened.

Overall, guns do not prevent crime (rural, urban, anywhere). But there is definitely a relation between the number of guns and gun-related homocides. Owning a gun just makes you more likely to hurt friends and family with it and/or makes it easier for it to end up in the hands of someone else who will.
