I myself have a 12 cal shotgun, and have one point to say. Guns dont kill people, people kill people, and they will find ways. Gun laws only keep Law Abiding citizens defenseless against psychos. Thx.
12 GAUGE. Idk why in gods name I said cal lol. I know better... and now I feel slow lol

@slickster555: Lol well let's jus hope it doesn't come to that. And let's be thankful criminals can't shoot worth a sh*t. Not to be graphic or un-caring, but if I walked into that theatre with an AR and a 100 rd mag, there's be a lot more than 12 dead. Better yet, If I'd been a patron there with my concealed Glock, that b*stard probably wudnt have killed 12 and wudnt still be suckn wind

Didn't take long for the news agencies to politicize the tragic event in Colorado and turn it into a gun control debate. Was wondering wat ur views were on this issue. Especially interested in the views of people outside the U.S.and how they see our laws concerning firearms.
Since you requested a view from people outside the U.S., I'll volunteer mine based purely on facts and figures.

Per 100,000 people, the US has 567% more intentional homicides than Spain.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_..._homicide_rate

Per 100,000 people, the US has 1,871% more gun-related homicides than Spain:

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_...ted_death_rate

Based on the above, I don't think it would be wild conjecture to argue that the enormous disparity in those numbers is -- at least in part -- a direct result of the amount of guns available in the US vs. Spain, which is a direct consequence of the 2nd Amendment. As such, I think it is plausible to say that the right to bear arms comes at a cost of a greater number of homicides, in general, and gun-related homicides, specifically.

Based on those numbers alone, I do not believe the freedom to bear arms actually makes a country safer, as is sometimes suggested.

All that said, I personally love to shoot guns. :)

I dont like guns. Im an old fashion guy. I like fighting. I think every man should know how to fight. Anyone can pull a trigger and accidently kill someone. I think the world would be better without them. Nothing wrong with just fighting
