That explains a lot. Dont think the Brits want Brexit because they feel so safe. Did you hear about the rampant epidemic of attacking victims with battery acid?

We helped the Aussies alright. Obama promised to take all their immigrants.

Many of these gun-free socialist states like Sweden and Germany now have No-Go Zones where not even the Police are safe to go. Their state-run press are hiding crime stats from the public to downplay their actual crises.

Think about what the Governments are able to get away with when they can keep their people as mushrooms in the dark and feed them nourishing manure.

It's amazing what the UK cops can do with only a baton, they are highly trained and very brave.

I believe the deal Obama struck was a refugee swap. ie Australia would take American latino refugees in exchange for Arab ones.

In the UK, New Zealand and Australia, the population does not need guns because people don't want to kill each other and shoot up schools, hospitals and veteran homes etc.
In these countries when someone has a grievance they often turn to drugs or alcholol but for some reason Americans want to pick up a gun and start shooting. The American "gun therapy" culture is fairly unique to America I have not seen it either in Asia or Europe. So I think it's a culture matter not gun or mental health problem.

"Gun therapy?" Interesting perspective bro EvanG. Gun therapy is mental illness. If Americans need gun therapy America is sick in the head.

Our second amendment is not a commandment from God. When it was written they were using muskets, not assault weapons.

The NRA propaganda is that guns don't kill people, people kill people. But if guns didn't kill people our military wouldn't use them. And how come we fear something that don't kill people.

America's problem IS guns. We worship them. There's a cult following of them. Gun owners just love fondling them ; cleaning them, oiling them, rubbing them, kissing them, showing them off. We love them precisely because they kill.

Sadly, this gun therapy, as you call it bro Evan, involves killing school children, and others we have a disagreement with, like Ruby Ridge, and Waco.

And now I fear we're just minutes away from gunning for NRA members. Sadly, that's a therapy we may be in need of, before we "woke," and do something about guns.

I don't see guns as the problem, people loving guns is not the problem. Neither is mental illness the problem. The problem is some people, mental illness or not, see guns as a way to deal with their problems. In other countries, a mentally disturbed person with a gun might kill themselves before killing innocent people. Gun therapy is also used by the politicians, but on a larger scale. Not popular in the polls? Other countries getting you down? Start a war, pick on a small country that can't defend itself... gun therapy.

Mentally disturbed people all over the world are using guns, vehicles, bombs, airplanes, battery acid, whatever they can find, etc. to kill others.

What planet are you on?

They are not mentally disturbed they know what they are doing. If they were they would be treated as mental health patients not criminals.

Whoa, kind of reckless here, bro.

A guy with all of your guns now "gunning" for all NRA members!

Time to shut this conversation down.

Why is it always about "worship" with you? Christian goes to church and you claim he worships the Bible and the pastor. Sportsman goes hunting and you claim he worships guns. Citizen votes for conservatives and you claim he worships Trump.

Your constant extremist talk is very disconcerting. You often just project your own extreme views on others you disagree with, like me for example.

I don't worship my guns. But I do know gun collectors that do. And I'm not using all my guns -- 2 shotguns and a pistol -- to gun for NRA members.

That's your extreme talking. And sorry for disagreeing with you. But you say extreme things that don't stand up to fact checking.

And I don't get it why someone, you, with no guns supports guns. And someone with guns, me, doesn't.

Awareness, you have a constitutional right to own guns, so I support that, but it doesn't mean that I have to use that right myself, at least not yet. I also strongly protest the attacks on the NRA. They have committed no crimes, in fact I would like to see all gun owners be forced to take gun safety courses thru the NRA. That would protect our schools far more than that Coward County Sheriff.

You also have the right to speak liberal policies and views that I don't agree with, just as I have the right to *mute* all liberals on TV. What I strongly protest are these radical leftists like ANTIFA and BLM who want to remove our rights to assemble and exercise free speech, especially in schools.

So you hate those you say hate, ANTIFA & BLM, but support Neo-Nazi White Supremeism, etc. You must be wearing your mute button out. I'm a mugwump. I don't mute anyone. I'll take truth, no matter how ugly it is, liberal, conservative, and center. Not to do that means views are supported by bias ... cuz your sources are biased just one way.

You must have worn out your mute button because you never hear what I say.

If you really listened then you would not distort my words.

He might see guns as a way to solve problems...such as compensate for cowardly law enforcement...or classroom bullying. But other ways to solve these problems might be better training or learning to forgive.
