    All I ask, is for you to think about the following and give me an honest answer:

    How many children / innocent people need to be murdered in cold blood, with the firearms you seem to hold with such esteem, before you will consider giving up you "God given right" to own them?
    Those aren't British lives. They're Americans, and they are none of your concern. Foreigners need to stop pretending that they care about us.

    not because you all respect us, you're just fucking terrified of us
    without our guns, the country with the second biggest guns would just take over

    so every argument against guns comes down to the same thing. one side can force their will on others, the other side has to be careful not to piss them off so they don't get shot

    peace has never been reality, never will, so arm yourself
    Wow that was stupid.

    It appears if we dont have concern about said lives, no-one else will. Again, the question is dodged. Will no-one answer it with even a little honesty?

    Its not a stereotype its the truth. Im not worried about the government going t-rex mode on me but that is the entire purpose of the second amendment. You also make the mistake of thinking that the candidates that, I would wager, most gun advocates voted for are those in office currently.

    Also, don't deport Piers Morgan. We don't want him back.
    4 minutes to reload.....no.

    I have read 15 seconds on average. But even if it was twice a minute...that would still be several 100% more than what he was suggesting.

    Just because a physical threat hasn't fallen upon you doesn't mean that the chance doesnt exist. Or does it not exist since your experience obviously means that it can't.

    Hey I don't like what somebody is saying ship them off! Now the guy is a bit of a twit, but suggesting we force him to leave because of it is silly. If we started deporting idiots the country would be empty and 200 million ppl would be floating around in ships with no country.

    Then there's also the question why a good handgun don't do enough, or a shotgun. An assault rifle to defend yourself seems a bit excessive.
    Violent crime rates would like to have a discussion with you.

    I just don't understand how you can be enthusiastic about something that was created with no purpose in mind but the ending of a life.

    This argument is as old and boring as the car vs guns argument.

    We don't need another gun thread (but as linked, this story already exists in another thread), especially one that starts with "all gun enthusiasts are unintelligent."
