In my country we usually don't carry guns around. I don't have the feeling, this fact would lower my state of security. Actually arms are dangerous - even for the owner - and I don't believe, that armed self-defence is the best of all possible ways to deal with the problem of crime. If there are so many agencies, police officers, FBI, ATF, FEMA, homeland-security, ..., why shouldn't they do something useful. The problem I see, that these agencies are not really trusted, but seem to be the former criminals, now with official status and better weapons. If that is the case, than your country is really f****. TH |

Don't confuse being "Happy with our form of Government" VS RELYING on a Government/Police Force that can't ensure/insure our PERSONAL SAFETY. Because they CAN not, HAVE not, WILL not, AND ARE not obligated to do so. Police are merely "a thing" you call AFTER a crime is committed, or is taking place. Normal people are allowed to defend themselves AS IT TAKES PLACE! Therefore, I LOVE my "form of Government" that allows me as a citizen, to protect my life, my wifes life, our childrens and neighbors and other others lives, so that that "we" can live on, work, and pay silly taxes. :) |

TH Bears and coyotes mainly. Sometimes puma come down from the hills. Or... if you live in Detroit, or Trenton, NJ! And again, I never had a "need" for a gun, so far. I just "want" them in case. For instance, NOBODY said you MUST have fire extinguishers or smoke detectors in certain dwellings. Sure glad I had plenty of both in '95 when our dryer decided to go ballistic due to a faulty electrical malfunction INSIDE the dryer. Took 20 minutes for the Fire Dept to show up after we called 911, and the FD was only 3/4 miles away! And I already killed the power, and put the fire out! In all fairness, the FD did provide me with some really cool Oxygen when they eventually showed up. Never had that bottled stuff before! I suggested that they add something "minty". |

Ok I don't understand the US society! If a country has a certain population and has a government and all sorts of personal, than this personal, employed by the country, should somehow work for the country - and not against. A certain individual has a certain job in the large machine of the society - say a teacher. Than the people pay this person to teach their kids and that is what the person is supposed to do - no more, no less. If they employ a policemen, this person should bring some sort of justice to a district, because the criminals are prosecuted. That these personal does, what it should, you have laws, that tell these employees, what to do (and what not). These laws are figured out by the government, what in some respect belongs to the personal, too, hence should make just and useful laws (and nothing else). If that isn't what happens, but the government tries to threaten the own population, than we have a lawless situation, where government and its personal only pretends to work for the people, that pay for them. If you don't believe, you may read this (or type 'REX 84' into google) FEMA Concentration Camps: Locations and Executive Orders http://www.mindfully.org/Reform/2004...ps3sep04.htm#1 As I said, the Nazis are a dangerous bread. Btw- the word concentration camp is badly 'germanized' in "Konzentrationslager" (from the original English roots), because the German language uses a different linguistic picture, that is more like the English word 'to collect' for 'sammeln'. In German you would say "Sammellager" (English: Concentration camp), but not "Konzentrationslager", because in German to concentrate ("konzentrieren") means to think hard. So these camps are an Anglo-Saxion speciality and first invented by Cecil Rhodes. Anyhow.. Size and location of these camps are a hint, that the intended inmates are Americans, what I regard as a hint for a not generally trustful government. |

If you want less crime in your country, than it's better to solve a few problems, than to send in troops. Crimes are usually not unavoidable like bad weather. It is a sign of a degenerated society, that people believe, they could only survive, if they run around with arms. Hmmmm....meanwhile the UK has one of the highest violent crime rates among the leading nations. And we see how well that society worked as London burned this summer. So clearly trying to keep people from having arms, doesn't necessarily mean crimes won't occur. The true measure isn't by how much people have had their arms removed, but whether they chose not to engage in crime whether they have arms or not. It isn't the arms that cause crime, but the will to do so. Removing arms, doesn't alter the will. One can ALWAYS find a way if they decide crime is what they desire. The society is responsible for the security of the country. That's why you have an army and a police. The individual should be able to trust in these organisations. I agree they should be able to trust these organization, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to provide for themselves should this trust be misplaced, or simply the organizations can't be everywhere 24/7/365. So how could you avoid crime? Well, that's where I have started. If people in general in a society are (in average) more healthy, happy, employed, sober, clean and moral, you have less crimes. (or vice versa) Actually only ONE of those criteria is really relevant. Moral. Everything else is conditions that overcome ones morals. So the issue is with these things, these are the causes of crime....so why are you wasting time trying to control one means of instrumentality rather than deal with the causes? If you have a lot of psychopaths running around with heavy guns, than things get dangerous. Hate to tell you this, but if you have a lot a psychopaths running around things are going to get dangerous whether guns are legal or not. See, they can always gets guns illegally, or they may simply turn to another means, such as bombs, traps, poison, and so on. The whys that one can commit a violent crime is limited only by one's imagination....not whether they can legally buy a gun. This is why I think, the police shall provide security for the general public. They try to do so, however, since their concern is for the general public, that means that individuals are often, well, on their own. This general public in return controls the police - to keep the policemen within the bounds of the law. And yet regularly we find policemen who are outside the bounds of the law. The individual person may possibly have a gun or shot on a shooting range. But you cannot possibly believe, that citizens should carry out their troubles with firearms. Yep, but if they are going to do so, whether they legally have guns, or not isn't going to significantly alter their ability to carry out their troubles on others, Either with an illegal firearms, or simply some other means. To have an alternative to violence you need a trustful jurisdiction and understandable and practical laws (what the U.S all don't have). Neither does the UK. This is why I would recommend reforming the civil laws, rather than the civil armament. Sorry, but civil law isn't the issue. Every crime is already illegal. Reforming the laws isn't going to change this. Until you can eliminate the causes of crime, why should one provide for their own defense just in cause the military or police fail to do so when needed as needed? If people are armed when there is no crime, then who cares? As long as they aren't engaging in crime, then what difference does it make if they chose to be armed or not? In short, I think you're spending too much time on the instrumentality and trying to control it, and no enough realizing that people will break the law when they chose to do so. Address why they chose to do so, and you can eliminate most crime. However you can never eliminate all crime because some people chose to commit crime only because they want to, and no other reason. "They just want to watch the world burn. " Because it gives them something that they simply can't have in any legal society. |

If you want less crime in your country, than it's better to solve a few problems, than to send in troops. HELLO ??? Earth to TH.. Come in TH... What are you blabbering about ? What "troops have been sent" for what "crimes" ?? Crimes are usually not unavoidable like bad weather. It is a sign of a degenerated society, that people believe, they could only survive, if they run around with arms. 1) NO ONE EXCEPT YOU is claiming that "crimes were unavoidable" Your stupid strawman - you feed it 2) NO ONE EXCEPT YOU is claiming that people "could only survive, if they run around with arms" Your stupid strawman - you feed it 3) But there is also NO GUARANTEE that you will not be the target of a criminal And no matter what and how much social engineering you attempt - there will be criminals and there will be people targeted by those criminals. As to your cheap slur of a "degenerate society"... My metric for that is as follows. A society that allows - the murder of over 6 million people in the same number of years - the murder of over 50 million people in a neighboring country in the same number of years - starts and participates in a couple of wars that result in the deaths of millions of people, military and civilian in a single century - that consistently disarms it's population to make them helpless against criminals both in and out of governments Ironically, the above describe YOUR country and your neighbors Yet it does NOT apply to the US Maybe you need to look at yourself, and the history of your people and countries before you do cheap and ignorant slander on others The society is responsible for the security of the country. That's why you have an army and a police. The individual should be able to trust in these organisations. So how does YOUR country live up to that standard over say the last 100 years ? You're real strong on theory but fail miserably on execution. The Opposite seems to be true for the US In the US, historically most people have ALWAYS viewed themselves as the "first responders" to bad situations. This is actually a continuation of what was true in England up to WWII. And therefore, it's part of the mindset that you do NOT sit around and wait for the "authorities" to come and solve your problems and fix thing for you. That has been changing (for the worse) with the increasing number of people buying into the "socialist" mindset that you spout above Here is a most appropriate editorial comment that appeared today that talks about this issue.. http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnal...vidualism.aspx So how could you avoid crime? Well, that's where I have started. If people in general in a society are (in average) more healthy, happy, employed, sober, clean and moral, you have less crimes. (or vice versa) More ivory-tower theory totally disconnected from reality It sure sounds good And idiots like you have been spouting that nonsense since Rousseau But then when we actually LOOK at your history and see how that theory has panned out over time, we realize that it's nice fantasy totally UNRELATED to reality. If you have a lot of psychopaths running around with heavy guns, than things get dangerous. Are you claiming that Americans who CHOOSE to: own firearms carry firearms as allowed by law are "psychopaths" Are you really this much of an ignorant bigoted prejudiced idiot ? Or did you have a bad fall recently and suffered a concussion ? This is why I think, the police shall provide security for the general public. This general public in return controls the police - to keep the policemen within the bounds of the law. Again with the nice theory.. How has that been working for say the last 100 years in Europe ? And then there is the problem is that in most countries, ALTHOUGH there is a belief that the police have a duty to protect them, there is probably also some law that states that they have no such duty or responsibility IN the US, we have 2 US Supreme Court Decisions (Warner, I believe, is the name of one) which CLEARLY STATE, that unless you have a previous relationship (such as witness protection), the police have NO DUTY to come to the aid or protect individual citizens. So, MOST DEFINITELY in the US, your theory is pure fantasy.. The individual person may possibly have a gun or shot on a shooting range. But you cannot possibly believe, that citizens should carry out their troubles with firearms. What exactly do you mean by "carry out their troubles with firearms" Is that some stupid code for criminal behavior ? And what do propose that a person being held up at an ATM do ? Dial 911 and hope for the best ? How about a woman who is being assaulted, with the possibility of being raped or even killed in the immediate future ? Should she also dial 911 and hope for the best ?? Fortunately in the US, we are far more civilized than people in degenerate societies like yours We STILL believe that people HAVE A RIGHT NOT to be the victims of criminals, whether those criminals are civilian or government agents... To have an alternative to violence you need a trustful jurisdiction and understandable and practical laws (what the U.S all don't have). TOTAL IGNORANT BULL**** I doubt that the laws in your country are any more "understandable and practical" that US laws But hey, go ahead and prove me wrong.. This is why I would recommend reforming the civil laws, rather than the civil armament. I would recommend instead that you get yourself an education in history and law Then you would stop spouting such arrant nonsense based on stupid presumptions that are based on abyssal ignorance... |

If they employ a policemen, this person should bring some sort of justice to a district, because the criminals are prosecuted. BZZZT You seem to confused about the role of the police 1) The police do NOT "bring justice to a district"... Instead, the police - are part of the SYSTEM to enforce the laws of the district - usually show up AFTER a crime is committed - usually are used to gather evidence AFTER THE FACT - possibly are used to track down the suspected criminal, and effect an arrest At that point the system uses prosecutors and judge to process the alleged criminal and "bring justice" more or less.. Now the police may be tasked to keep the "public peace" But in reality there are NOT enough police around to prevent crime or stop crime in progress. IN actual fact, most police are not even very good at solving crime. As a matter of fact, there is NO EVIDENCE to support the thesis that more police will result in less crime Usually more police results in a "police state" which history has shown is NOT a good thing... That these personal does, what it should, you have laws, that tell these employees, what to do (and what not). Again with the nice theory that has NOTHING to do with the real world These laws are figured out by the government, what in some respect belongs to the personal, too, hence should make just and useful laws (and nothing else). More nice theories not connected to the real world Not to mention the notion that government is MAYBE the servant of the people. That has been shown NOT to be the case in European countries, over and over again... As a matter of fact, European governments have proven themselves repeatedly to consider themselves the Masters and NOT the servants of the people.. If that isn't what happens, but the government tries to threaten the own population, than we have a lawless situation, where government and its personal only pretends to work for the people, that pay for them. sigh If you don't believe, you may read this (or type 'REX 84' into google) FEMA Concentration Camps: Locations and Executive Orders http://www.mindfully.org/Reform/2004...ps3sep04.htm#1 BIIIIIG SIGH The so-called FEMA concentration camps are just another conspiracy theory.

What would be, according to you, the BEST DEFENSE against such government abuse ? A defenseless population that is easily picked up and loaded into the railroad cars ? Or an armed population that is apt to shoot back at the government thugs coming to load them in the railroad cars ? And remember that there are over 300 million guns in the hands of about 80 million "households" with a total of about 100 million households in the US. There are not even close to 5 millions police and soldiers in the US How do you think 80 million ARMED people would respond to a few million government thugs wanting to abrogate their rights ?? And don't forget that of all the people in the police and military, A VERY LARGE NUMBER are conservatives who: believe in the Constitution and what it represents BELIEVE that they have a duty to their Oath of Service, which in part states that they swear to defend the Constitution from enemies within and without the United States. Note that their oath is NOT to uphold the government Their oath is to "PROTECT the Constitution from enemies both domestic and foreign" Do you believe that in their minds, a government wanting to abrogate the rights of the people they swore to protect would not qualify as an enemy of the Constitution ? As I said, the Nazis are a dangerous bread. Ironic how they were successful in Europe and not so successful in the US Why do you think that is ? Hint: Americans have a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT Mindset from Europeans which makes it difficult for such statists to do what they like to do. Btw- the word concentration camp is badly 'germanized' in "Konzentrationslager" (from the original English roots), because the German language uses a different linguistic picture, that is more like the English word 'to collect' for 'sammeln'. In German you would say "Sammellager" (English: Concentration camp), but not "Konzentrationslager", because in German to concentrate ("konzentrieren") means to think hard. So these camps are an Anglo-Saxon specialty and first invented by Cecil Rhodes. Anyhow.. Size and location of these camps are a hint, that the intended inmates are Americans, what I regard as a hint for a not generally trustful government. Who cares The so-called "FEMA camps" are conspiracy nut nonsense. Read this http://www.popularmechanics.com/tech...y/news/4312850 And the only people who are apt to end up in it, are unarmed and trustful sheeple like you Americans are neither unarmed, nor do they blindly trust their government. Thomas, I hope I haven't been too harsh with you But, I've been on these groups for a long time It is so so frustrating to come across people who are so deeply ignorant of history both theirs and that of the US, and of the relationship between gun-control and people-control throughout history Americans learned this lesson 200+ years ago and have worked hard not to forget it Europeans, with the possible exception of the Swiss, have not leaned this lesson very well and seem to be doing everything in their power to forget it. (And sadly the Swiss seem to be going down that path as well). You do not come across as one of the regular trolls that come through these groups to push the lies and distortions so commonly used by the gun-control crowd. You do come across as some who is curious, not very well informed, and maybe willing to look at things from a different viewpoint. IF you are truly interested in the subject and are willing to spend some time reading up on this subject, you will find a whole slew of people who will be happy to point to interesting material. They will also give you a fair hearing if they believe you are NOT pushing an agenda |
