Thread Name: BS: Guns in America
Subject: RE: BS: Guns in America
"As you made no comment about the rest of my previous post, I'm guessing you're in agreement with me and you've accepted that actual facts based on the real-world experiences of other countries more civilised than the US, carry more weight than ill-conceived, counter-logical theories, and that in a country like the US, with an unacceptable level of shootings, trying to reduce the number of shooting incidents by increasing the number of guns in circulation is like trying to fight a gasoline fire by pouring more gasoline on it. It's a crackpot concept, put about by greedy charlatans who care more about gun-manufacturers' profits than they do about the lives of their fellow Americans."


As YOU made NO comment about my many posts showing that in the real world, the countries with more private ownership of firearms in general have LOWER rates of illegal killings, I will presume your comment above was meant in jest.


I genuinely wish you luck with 'The Anti-gun delusion', but I fear that, while the anti-gun-loonies hold so much power, it ain't going away any time soon.
