You honestly think that?
According to people I speak to here, including relatives that lived through it, the Americans usually turned up late, did their bit, flirted with anything in a skirt, and fucked off as fast as they arrived.

Nobody can remember the US actually writing anything constitutionally for any of the European countries.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The  Allies wrote the new constitutions for the Axis countries.
And now you are claiming the US had virtually nothing to do with the victory? That is absurd. 


I made no such claim.
I just trashed your claim that the US won us the war.
If you think that, please tell me where I said it or even implied it.
And no, the US did not write the constitutions for anyone except the conditions of the german surrender.
They might have had some input or suggestions, but they didn't write one or dictate its content.

And I do wish you'd use proper quotes.
And yes, they do work for everyone else.

All peer reviewed studies show that when the ability to carry guns is changed the nature of violent crime changes. More guns generates less rapes and muggings and increase property theft. Fewer guns available to people make violent crime go the other way. It makes sense if you are a criminal who suspects a victim may be armed that you're going to steal his car rather than confront him. Same for rapes.



This is genuinely interesting.

Do you really mean "all" peer reviewed studies. I mean... 100% of them?

Could you post links to a couple of these studies?

50% in 20 years is not a slow drop.

The UK and Australia did much more than that overnight.
So I'd call that incredibly slow.
And I didn't see in anything I read that it was as high as 50% nationwide.

I guess that although the war in Europe was not our war but that we supplies the allies with everything they needed to fight it means nothing. I guess that the US completely fought the Japanese in the Pacific while fighting is Europe means nothing. I guess that the allies were down to nothing and about to be beaten on all fronts means the US was late even if we completely turned all of that around.

And seriously, dude, if you're 18 to 20, your government is sending you to war. You first show up and stage in a country where all of the men are gone to war for years and the women were alone, you wouldn't chase skirts? Seem a little namby pamby to me. In all war the dominate males leave their genetic material behind. Britain did it all over the world until the empire was crushed in WWII.

Oh, as an aside, the US then paid to rebuild Europe.


But, this is a second amendment thread so back to that.

You can start with John Lot. You can research from there. In case you're not being sarcastic, "More Guns Less Crime" was a peer reviewed project John Lot did while an associate professor of economics at the University of Chicago.

But, since those laws were introduced, gun related deaths just plummeted through the floor and never rose again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

They were already in the basement.

Whislt that is true, compared to the previous levels (though nothing like in the US), they dropped considerably.




1.1 clear down to 1.0 when crime is dropping in the west is not dramatic, and not even approaching our drop of 50% ovr the same period, but live in your dream world if you want.

Hum, on December 31, 2006 Britain made its last payment to the US for debt from WWII, according to the BBC. I don't think any other country bothered. But, I don't know. To what aspect of history are you referring? A buddy of mines father was the second pilot to take off in the Berlin Air Lift. The first plane crashed on take off. So not only did we rebuild Europe and Japan, we pretty much supported them until they got on their feet. To what aspect of history to you disagree with me, or are you just making general idiot remarks?

I'm not being sarcastic.

Oh you're referring to the paper in which Lot says

quote:


On the one hand, this indicates that right-to-carry laws do not always have
the deterrent effects on crime that are envisaged by legislators and that the
adoption of such laws is not without risk


Fair enough.

But, your statement that 100% of Peer Reviewed studies is utter bullshit right?

For example - the Fordham Law Review - V73 Issue 2 - Guns, Crime and the Impact of State Right to Carry Laws (Donohue, J)

Or... rather interestingly this paper (from the Journal of Legal Studies) the paper by Dan Black and Daniel Nagin which states that "John R Lott and David Mustard conclude that right-to-carry-laws deter violent crime. But our analysis of Lott and Mustard's data provides no basis for drawing confident conclusions..."

That's not 100% is it?

I mean, you're referring to a paper that was debunked.

Ooops.

Well it didn't fucking PAY then did it... it LENT money.

Do you understand the difference between lending someone something vs paying for something for them?

Sheesh. This is GED level stuff here.

As I pointed out earlier there have ben 28 major studies on this 18 after revealing sources and methodology underwent peer review. These studies all showed a relative drop in crime as a result of ccw laws.
9 studies with the same transparency and review showed it to be a wash.
1 study, done by the Brady Bunch, refused to reveal sources or methodology and refused peer review was the only one to show negative effects of ccw laws.

Let's see, your house burns down, I rebuild it and tell you to pay me back when you can. Sure, call it a loan. I'm sure between you and the IRS that's all good. But, who built your house. Who got your family taken care of and fed? Who kept your family warm? Not the terminology of the finances.


I'm really just going to have to disagree with you on Lot. Leftist have tried to debunk the work for years and I see very little honest work doing so.

Can we agree on a definition of 100%.

Here in lefty land we're living in the belief that 100% means "all of them".

Do you have a different definition?

If you think that your country paid for that, rather than getting the money back, then you're a lot more ignorant than he is. We were paying off the Marshall plan loans until 2006.

And yet peer reviewed studies overwhelmingly support our side of the debate.
