It really sucks to have a boring sig. You know, the kind that drones on forever and never really says anything. I try my best to never have one of those. Every time I make a new sig I try to get it to be a truly outstanding sig. Some people have sigs like that. With neat (EVula) links and stuff. Witty quotes are good too. But then some people have really, really, boring sigs that you'd die before reading more of. They just go on, and on, and on...those sigs really annoy me. I mean, they say nothing and nobody really cares anyway! I pity the people who have those.

And people wonder why there are so many school shootings and murders in the US


Well, what´s it like in Elnir? (that was -really- lame)

Also:
SG, I don´t get where you are coming from. Do you not get the fact that guns are a lethal weapon? Do youi not understand that they are probably the easiest and deadliest weapin avaliable to the general public? I don´t understand. Guns are deadly, and shouldn´t be had by the general public.

You made a point that if you go to Reno wearing red, or LA wearing Orange, you would get shot. Why is that? Because people have guns. When you can give me good reason for owning a gun (besideds that constitutional clause), then I will see your position.

Oh, and BTW, don´t give me the reason:
Because you can shoot a burglar or someone who breaks into your house.
A: You are way more likely to end up shooting one of your own family (I don´t have my book around me roght now, becasue I am not at home)
B: To be to have a gun that accessible that quickly (if somebody broke in) would mean that it would be excessivly easy for a child to take the gun himself

Yes, by all means let's create a situation where only criminals and governments are armed. Gee, then we can be defenseless while we are all robbed and raped on our way to the government concentration camps. What fun!

No, that's because criminals have guns. An overwhelming majority of drug-related shootings are perpetrated by persons who have at least one felony conviction. By the simple act of owning a firearm these people are breaking federal law and should be sent to prison for life. This is a law that, thanks to Mr. Bill Clinton, has been weakened by his reduction of funding for every gun violence prevention program in the US.

1. The afore mentioned protection against despotism.
2. Shooting sports (Many are Olympic sports).
3. Hunting.
4. Collecting (for artistic purposes and otherwise).
5. A unit of currency.
6. Self-protection
7. Investment.
8. Empowerment against external forces.
9. Protection against invasion.
10. Tradition.

There are 10 reasons, but I could go on.

Shinobi, I understand it's a difficult concept, but I'd like you to understand that non-Americans are entitled to have an opinion too. Sure, they may not have been born in the Land of the Free, but it's just possible, if they work hard to educate themselves, that they might understand nearly as much about these issues as Americans are born knowing.


Pufer, I can point to a society in which only the criminals and the government have guns. It's called New Zealand. You can own a shotgun or rifle, but military-style semi-automatics and handguns are banned. And do you know what? The result is neither anarchy or dictatorship. New Zealand has some of the lowest crime rates in the western world, combined with one of the most democratic governments in the world - about 80% of Kiwis vote in every election, as opposed to 40% of Americans - and the political spectrum is far more diverse. I could make similar statements about Australia, or most of the countries in the European Union, though I don't have personal experience in that part of the world.

One point gun advocates are fond of raising is the "people will find other ways to kill argument". This holds absolutely no water. Murder rates in all countries which have banned pistols are vastly lower than the States - of course, that's not hard, given the exorbitant levels of gun-related murder in the States. Sure, you can kill someone with a knife. But it's far easier to kill them with a gun, and so far more people get killed when guns are involved.

The self-defence argument holds up just a little bit better. After all, theoretically you /could/ force a criminal to back off with a gun. The problem is that in any situation you might need it, a gun won't be handy. If you're mugged in an alley, your attacker has their gun out and beaded - there's no way to outdraw a beaded gun. If you're at home, you have to retrieve your gun from its gun safe and load it to defend yourself - that takes time, and that's often time you don't have. And don't even think of telling me that you'd keep a gun out of its safe and loaded.

Target shooting and collecting... both entirely possible under a gun ban. You don't need a Colt .45 to shoot targets; a target pistol is just fine, and is unlikely to be used in crime as well. There are gun collectors Down Under too; the guns they collect are either entirely legal (rifles, shotguns, etc) or have their firing pins removed so that they're not functional. Either way, they retain their value as a collector's item.

Please don't tell me that "tradition" is a valid reason to own a gun.


However, I will concede that there is a definite problem with trying to ban handguns in America, and it's not that the NRA won't let it happen. The problem is that the country is already awash with guns, so it would be impossible to see the kind of results that countries with a long history of gun control have achieved. It's quite likely that crime would increase in the short term if any ban were instituted. How big that surge would be... who knows? And how long would it last... with the vast oversupply of handguns in America, it could be a very, very long time.

While NZ isn't a civil-rights crushing dictatorship right now, there may come a point in the future where a corrupt and invalid regime takes hold and the New Zealanders will have nothing to fight back with. NZ might not be the best example of this as Australia or the US could step in and defeat such a despotic regime if the need arised, but if it was the US that had slipped into such a situation there wouldn't be too many countries out there standing up for the defenseless American people (due, mainly, to the prospect of millitary destruction at the hands of the invalid US government).

Us pro-gunners would respond pointing to the fact that in the period after the banning of handguns, handgun-related violent crime has actually increased in countries adopting such a policy (such as in Britain).

We can both see that comparing gun-crime rates between the US and anywhere is comparable to comparing apples and oranges (as the old saying goes) and certainly wouldn't stand up in any valid argument (even though what you say is true). Likewise, my argument is based on a pure statistical correlation and, while it may fare slightly better than just pointing out two unrelated statistics (and is also true), it also has no place in a solid argument. This is why I try to stay away from this kind of argument except when its counter is brought up.

I can have a loaded gun in my hand within around 5 seconds upon being awakened at night, it would take far longer than that to get to my room, from the front door, for someone unfamiliar with my place, in the pitch dark (if you're really worried about such things you have an unloaded gun very handy at night (but locked up during the day), it doesn't take much to snap a mag in and chamber a round). If I am mugged in an alley I probably won't be armed anyway and will give up my money without any resistance.

Target pistols are illegal in Britain, as are all long guns. Sen. Dianne Feinstein has traditionally targeted all target guns (pistols and rifles) and hunting rifles in her gun ban legislation as she thinks that they are sniper weapons. They would be the first to go over here. Also, what do I use if I want to shoot targets a mile away, get a single-shot .22?

If a collectable firearm has been tampered with at all (for example: having the firing pin or reciever removed) it loses a huge amount of value. The most valuable weapons are those still in original packaging, if they are disturbed to become "legal" they, likewise, become common, uncollectable weapons.

Indeed. I'm very glad that you have always acknowledged this point, so many others cannot see that this would be the effect as they have been lost in the propoganda. It makes it very hard to have any kind of debate if they cannot see any possible bad in the immediate destruction of all of the legal guns in the US.

Even if public holding of guns -was- banned in the U.S, people would still get mugged. Why? Lots of crook use the "unloaded or fake gun trick." If I was ever held up, then I would first ask the mugger to shoot the gun at the sky/ground to see if he wasn't fooling. If he refused, then I would just duck and run away. If he did shoot the gun, I would happily comply with him.

I think that your average mugger isn't going to go out of his way to draw attention to himself (which firing a gun into the air certainly would do). If he's going to shoot, he's going to shoot you. I'd rather not take that risk.

Speculation on what you'd do if someone pulled a gun on you aside - of course people would still get mugged. But people would be killed in muggers less often. Gun crime = more deadly crime.

SA, the thing about using a .45 to shoot targets is....well.....Americans LOVE to **** get the crap blown out of it. Have you ever seen a 7.62 jacketed round can do to a block of ice? IT BLOWS THE HELL OUT OF IT. Maybe its an American thing, cause I know Canadians dont much care about things blowing up. Thats why all Democrats and Liberals should go to Canada, that way they'd have no one to argue with. But anyways, we like big guns, and we like to see **** get blown up. We dont neccissarily care what it is, we usually just want to see it get blown up with a big gun or piece of HE.

"What," someone (I'm imagining SA) might say, "target pistols are used in sport, just look at the name!" I'll explain. I imagine that the shooting sports that most Brits and Aussies has grown up around (if they grew up around them at all) probably used target pistols exclusively, for the sole reason of anything else wasn't an available option. Over here, however, you will find very few shooting sports that use mainly custom made, small caliber pistols as everything else is an option. The most popular professional shooting leagues are the ones that use large caliber revolvers, shotguns, or (yes) customized versions of the venerated .45cal pistol. While there are certainly contests out there that rely on .22LR and .17HMR cartridges, they are usually not very popular and tend to be very exclusive (as in very pricey). There are even Class III contests that get larger crowds and more participants than many of the target pistol contests, and they rely purely on persons possessing a rather rare Class III Destructive Arms Permit from the ATF. A license that allows the carrier to own and operate any firearm outside of the normal legal limits: full-auto machineguns, grenade launchers, sawed-off shotguns, and basically anything else you can think of (as you can well imagine, the ATF isn't too keen on giving out too many of these permits).

You're going to have to wait until you're 21 and have a flawless record everywhere, including at school (there have been times when the ATF has called up former high schools of Class III applicants, especially for applicants who are particularly young). You also have to be willing to give them your fingerprints and, in some states, a DNA sample.

It really sucks to have a boring sig. You know, the kind that drones on forever and never really says anything. I try my best to never have one of those. Every time I make a new sig I try to get it to be a truly outstanding sig. Some people have sigs like that. With neat (EVula) links and stuff. Witty quotes are good too. But then some people have really, really, boring sigs that you'd die before reading more of. They just go on, and on, and on...those sigs really annoy me. I mean, they say nothing and nobody really cares anyway! I pity the people who have those.

Just think about Carinae and the types of activities he enjoyed.
