Perhaps time to reconsider your gun laws, eh?

Sure and while we're at it we'll take a stab at your knife laws as well.

Pretty useless stab if you ask me as you have both gun and knife problems...

[Carach]

because 5 women got killed at a store robbing today in the UK right?

nope. not yesterday either, or the day before... or the day before.....

I would really love to see a british knife armed idiot killing 5 or 30 people just as your gun armed idiots do.

Why do you even think we when from blades to bullets in the first place?

What's the bet he's white? It seems all mass shootings are caused by white people.

Washington sniper?

From the story-

Police were looking for a black man about 5ft, 9ins tall and weighing 230 to 260lbs, dressed in a black waist-length winter coat, a black cap and black jeans.

I don't know, the police have made mistakes before.

If the police can't tell a white man from and a black man when wearing a black coat, black jeans and a black cap then it going to be a long investigation.

Didn't they arrest a random black in the other mall shooting?

I remembered when I applied for a gun License, Aboriginals Apparently can claim Right to hunt without license or something similar.

Well that was just ignorant.
Though there is one pattern that's traceable; most of these people are taking some form of seratonin reuptake inhibitor. Anti dipresents actually increase psychosis and thoughts of suicide.

Right to Bear Arms Edward, Part of our Life Liberty and pursuit of (un)happiness plan. it seems in america we don't care much for human life anymore. But hey, In a culture where we can legally kill our unborn babies what do you expect, think of this as a belated abortion.

"What's the bet he's white? It seems all mass shootings are caused by white people."

....why would you even say that? *points to genocides and ethnic cleansings in Africa, Suicide bombers in the Middle East, and Asian Communists*

Oh, right, because ever since Roe V Wade, the U.S. has gone to hell. Of course, anyone anti-abortion would never end a life...unless they're on death row, brown, or a doctor.

not so irrelevant as you think. The less we value life,, the easier it is to take it away. It shouldn't be such a suprise when peolple do stuff like this. Who is telling them it's bad? According to the Government i is legal to kill infants in the womb, so why wouldnt somebody be allowed to go to a mall and shoot people. Same concept, taking life.

Except a 3 week old clump of cells isn't a person.

Most brown people in this country (hispanics) are pro life...

But don't let facts get in the way. By all means carry on.

I meant Arabs, and by the context of my post, it's blatantly obvious.

[Joker85]

Not much is blatantly obvious from your posts. Except for an ability to spout shallow talking points and make dubious inferences to "killing brown people". Perhaps if you decide to present a contribution minus weak generalizations that are destroyed easily upon further debate we could get somewhere.

I'll start, you claim pro life people don't mind killing Arabs (brown people) and are therefore hypocritical. Yet one of the main reasons argued for continuing presence in Iraq and Afghanistan is the effect on the local populations if they were to fall under the control of Al Qaeda and the Taliban. Those local populations are Arab. So...

Would you like to move onto "doctors" and the death penalty?

Actually we are getting woefully off topic. But I think I have made my point. If the best you have to offer in a discussion is that pro life people support killing arabs, doctors, and murders, no point continuing anyway.

Guys, seriously. Why even bother with this thread? It' just going to go back and forth between Americans who say it is their right to own weapons and Europeans who think that we have a plague of gun crime in the United States and that there is no reason to have as many guns as we do.

because europeans love to goat americans on how primative their society is and americans love to make fun of socialist europeans prostituting themselves and their liberty to their governments in the promise that they may get a safer society.

either way anytime there is a shooting here every anti-gun nut runs in screaming Ah HAH! you should give up your guns look at what happened

white people are more likely to be perps in a rampage shooting, but on a whole they are very rare ( you'll likely to die in a plane crash before a rampage killer).

while minorities are responsible for the vast majority of gun deaths usually due to gang violence or during an illicit event.

on a side note, its funny how nearly all mass shootings occur in heavily gun-control or gun-free zones/cities. just food for thought.

Irrelevent. Abortions are performed in Europe, so I guess they have high gun crimes as well.
