Okay, I get it now rolling on the floor laughing laugh laugh Sorry, it took me a min...

Yes, they are always afraid of what might happen, so afraid of it that they don't SEE what's in front of them.
Blinded by fear, we may say.

Boys and their toys roll eyes

Grandepensees: I ain't. You're talking about "militias" and ideas right out of the 1700's...
Open your mind to certain OTHER things, you'll see they're not scary, just different.

The VERY idea of getting a gun and having it at home IS proof of your fear 'sunshine'.

Nettermann: yes you did, you pretended that nobody could feel safe without a gun Imagine i will never feel safe because i will never own a weapon


If safety truly was in firearms, why own just a gun?
Go for the bazooka and and the 50.cal
Hell, ride around in a tank, you'd be safe from traffic accidents.
Go on a cruise on a battleship, you'll be safe from pirates...

Ludicrous...

The truth is that a gun will make you LESS safe because then your antagonist feels that HE has to shoot you to protect HIS life.

It's a vicious circle.

Nettermann: Imagine we are not allowed to own a gun here in Europe without a gun licence and do you know i am still alive and i got never injured by burglars. I think the ownership of a gun and the increasing gap between poor and rich citizens contributes to such crimes in your countries.But you are however good guys, you support the gun industry financially



So, since it hasn't happened YET, you believe there is zero chance it will ever happen?

Grandepensees: What about Home Security?
Ever heard of it?
It's this wired network that goes through your home and magnetize your entries and windows so that when there IS an intruder, you DON'T HAVE to kill him, a call is automatically sent to the authorities and the cops are at your door within 5 to 10 minutes... Oh, I know, they're gonna make of with your grandma's china or your stereo...Ever heard of Burglar Insurgence? Is this thing where...
And if you can afford a house and things in it you would kill for, you can certainly afford both those things I mentioned.

To me, only scared and selfish people own guns, the ones who only value theirs and their families life, not anyone else.

I've lived in tough cities and towns and walked in tough neighborhoods unarmed... I'm still alive because I have respect for my fellow man, I don't care what he looks like and who he is.

Of course, I don't think I'm the only one who has the right to be on this planet...not like others we know



So you to believe that since nothing has happened to you, nothing will every happen to anyone?

What if you were walking through that tough neighborhood with your teenage daughter and a gang stopped you?

kissmedeeply: Kill me..but i have to agree with him..

No guns in this home..

Just home security..

I have a young child so dont need guns here at all..

but i dont judge on people who think they need/want them..



Are you saying that you give up your right to defend that young child?

That child looks to you for protection. Or do you just defer that responsibility to the state?
