dude, can you save up all your nonsensical comments and just blurt them out all at once instead of interupting all the time. Seriously, do you sit at a bar and make stupid comments when other men are talking. Do they stop, look at you, and then continue talking? Do you ever feel stupid when you do that?
What are your views on gun control? Do you agree? Disagree?
Nirvana above mentions the increased crime in OZ, but my data below disagrees. Then again, he shifted from gun crime to home invasions which although they have in fact risen, has little or nothing to do with gun crime, and in fact is simply just another way of manipulating data (as I said above, and you didn't understand) to get to the result you want:
Homicides per 100,000 people
USA (2001) 3.98
Italy (1997) 0.81
Switzerland (1998) 0.50
Canada (2002) 0.4
Finland (2003) 0.35
Australia (2001) 0.24
France (2001) 0.21
England/Wales (2002)
Scotland (2002)
Japan (2002

No guns means less people killed by them. I don't want less guns, just more control. I like guns. I have no issue registering my guns. If I kill somebody with my guns I'll be ready to face whatever I need to face due to my actions. If anyone else gets killed with one of my previously owned guns, I'll sleep better at night knowing that my registration of that gun and registered sale of that gun will help to find the killer and bring closure to some family that is hurting.
