        I guess it's safe to say I will never agree with anyone of you on this and vice versa
        Well, for rifles and shotguns ... that's a whole story in itself ...
        Many American's are/were brought up on hunting with their old man.
        For many, the rifle is as much as a nostalgia item as a Mego... Sometimes even stronger because it will be passed on to the next generation with way more significance then giving your kid your old GI Joe.
        Owning rifles and shotguns are as American as anything else you can think of including McDonalds, hot dogs and lousy beer.

        For handguns ... That's a little trickier.
        I know a lot of people who are good decent citizens and own muliple handguns including a few doctors, a lawyer and even a female school teacher.
        It's not that these people are "packing" to kill someone ... They just appreciate a nice weapon as another collector might appreciate and collect swords...

        If we banned guns we would be gladly handing over part of our freedom given to us by our forefathers.
        Are we very stubborn ? ... Yes
        It's a tough sell trying to convince an American to give up one of his freedoms

          Dude, lighten the **** up, will ya? I'm not forcing you to do anything and I'm by no means an extremist. In case you didn't know I live in Belgium, where guns are illegal and I have no problem with that, I don't want a gun. I just don't get the whole fascination with guns you people have, that'w all I was saying. PERIOD. You don't like what I have to say? See if I care.

          Oh, and I bet equal numbers of people get killed because they had a gun and tried to be a hero. It's only money, not worth risking your life over. But again, that's just MY opinion, do whatever the hell you want

            To be honest, I love Thomas' opposite viewpoint on this subject.

            It makes for good conversation rather than everyone agreeing with eachother.

            I'm not opposed to being enlightened by others views -- especially from people who are from different countries that have different customs.

            You keep on posting, Thomas

                  Gun Control really isn't the Issue Thomas... People seem to be jumping on that angle, and really turning the Unfortunate issue into something of a different angle..., look I don't own a Gun, nore probably will ever, but the reality of the Matter is..., This Guy Had a prison Sentence at 1 time of 95 yrs ..., How the F did he get out of Jail ? ... Then his 1st Bail was set at 40,000... and his second bail was set at 150,000 and this Guy still got outta Jail .. Once the Criminal system has these Guys The 1st time,.. let alone the 2nd or 3rd..., they really need to keep them, and Bail should not be set. Here is someone..., who already was in trouble for Assault on a Former Police Officer..., and then Molesting and raping young girls ... , and with the guy's previous convictions, this guy was Obviously a repeat offender, and seriously shoulda been treated as a dangerous Criminal, however was given chance after chance ... imo the Law system needs to seriously be looked at,.. and these types of people should not be given repeated chances .

                    Can i just say that i agree with Thomas, must be a European thing.

                    I don't know anyone who owns a gun and never have. In my entire life i have never heard of anyone ( living anywhere near me ) who has been shot.

                    In America guns are everywhere and every week we here another load of people have been gunned down over there.

                    Is anyone getting the message because it's coming over loud and clear here?

                      It also might be because America is like 1,000 times larger than the UK
                      Of course we have more crime ...

                              Of course you have a point there Mike, but what wolfie said is basically how we all feel here, it's how we see things. Guns provoce violence. Example:
                              Store owner gets robbed in Belgium at gun point, he hands over the cash and the robber splits.
                              Store owner gets robbed in the US at gun point, he pulls his own gun and there's a gun fight. Either the store owner, the robber or both are killed.

                                USA...gun ownership is legal.

                                Mexico...gun ownership is illegal.

                                Yet which country has more murders by gun per capita?

                                Oh...and Mexico does NOT have capital punishment.

                                Yet drug cartels have that country under siege.

                                I fail to see why this is not a solid argument.

                                Mexico does not count as a real country for some reason?

                                Did you know Mexico has the 13th largest economy in the world and is a member of the G-20?

                                It's not like Mexico is Bangladesh or Rwanda you know.

                                Again...what doesn't hold up in my argument?
