I do not know how I managed to find this message board, but I am quite amused (not to mention horrified!) by the views of some people here..
Is every american as paranoid as you are?
Neither North Korea nor Iraq oppose threats to 'the free world', even though the countries are clearly run by egoistic madmen.
While Spain, UK and the US are crying out to its allies for help to wipe these countries off the face of the earth, the rest of the world (once again... 'the free world') is laughing at Blair + Bush.
Anyone seen the film "Wag the dog"?
This is truly one of the worst cover-ups ever taken place, and a feeble attempt at trying to get the american economy back on its feet (the US$ is cheaper than the Euro now...!).
Closing your eyes, putting cotton wool in your ears, and pretending anti-gun laws will not make a difference to the crime stats of your country is just plain stupid.
You are, to my knowledge, the only country in the world to allow anyone (just about, luckily) to carry a loaded/concealed gun in public.
While you lot are slowly killing yourself simply because you claim it is your constitutional right (we have a constitution in Sweden as well, you know , and it does not give us the right to bear arms. we don't have a problem with that).
There is no such thing as 'the perfect country' (I think... haven't been to the Netherlands yet, so I don't know for sure), but when people start avoiding going to the US (a western country!) on summer holidays out of fear of their own lives... wouldn't you say something is wrong then?
I am not entirely anti-guns, I wouldn't crucify you if it turned out you had a Thompson SMG on display in your home - but when you buy ammunition for it, carry it with you when you go shopping, let the neighbour's 7-year-old fire it... that's just disturbed, man!
So.. your opinions?
How many of you actually do this - carry a loaded gun? And if so, then why?
Do you really believe yourself to be so much better than any other country in the world?
Can you point out where Mongolia is on the world map (it is common knowledge among us eurotrash that the yanks don't know where the rest of the world is )
Illiterate hillbillies, do not bother with replying - I am looking for a serious discussion here, not the "God made man, and Sam Colt mad him equal" crap.
