You amaze me. You should be proud. Ask Australia how they like their gun ban. They love the multi hundred percent increase in home invasions. Or ask japan how they like it. No gun crimes, just thousands of stabbing. Criminals are criminals, guns or knives or piano wire. Gun control only affects honest people.

Lived in both Japan and Australia on the economy and I never met a single person there (to include family as I have both from both countries) that regretted that they couldn't have tons of guns. Have you heard something different from them?

Please provide a reference for the "hundreds of percent increase" in crime in those countries after gun control was enacted. Last I heard they were pretty safe to live in. My stats seem to disagree with yours.

No, it's not made up. I think it wa 300% increase in home invasions in Australia, but I said hundreds because I don't remebered the exact number. Tried not to just make it up.

For those of you who think that a couple of deer rifles wouldn't stop a BN or BDE dead in its tracks need to come with me on a couple of missions. I'm not saying the 'sniper' won't eventually get 'found,' but one guy with a gun can sure screw up an army's plans.

hey 47, I know it's a long standing joke. Myself and HockeyDad were chuckling about it between ourselves. You just didn't that. You see, my sarcasm is in your face, whilst his is over your head. Thanks for missing the whole point though, and simply swearing. By the way, the next evolution train is departing in 5 minutes. Pick up your knuckles and hop onboard. It's fun up here where reason lies.

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

Data taken from Cukier and Sidel (2006) The Global Gun Epidemic. Praeger Security International. Westport.

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.

You're the only one playing. Sort of like that kid in my 1st grade class that sat by himself and blurted out nonsense all the time. This was before my school realized that he had special needs and would benefit more from some individual teaching by a person trained in his situation.

Do you need a special teacher too? Someone to teach you how to control those vocalizations and tics that emit from your loud mouth?
