ORIGINAL: BamaD Man defends his family the wrong person gets caught in the crossfire and instead of going after the attacker you persecute the homeowner, this is what passes for justice in England? Me, I just find it revolting that anyone could pass off the death of an innocent as a result of 'crossfire'. Like, people blowing their guns off all over the place is somehow normal behaviour - move swiftly beyond that sort of thing, which is as natural as the weather - and talk about who's righteous and who isn't. It *isn't* "normal" and "natural". "Crossfire" is what happens only in a fucked up social system that has arse-licked the gun lobby too much and for far too long. Allowing people to go outside and blast away with firearms is just primitive, Bama. A grown-up society just doesn't condone that kind of behaviour. In a grown up society people - all people - would be shocked at even seeing a man standing in the street with a gun aimed at someone. Funny. I didn't hear Bama "passing off" the death of a girl. I don't think anyone wants the death of innocent people Peon - and it is rather uncouth to suggest Bama does. Kind of like your insinuation about Mengele. We that support gunrights do so - warts and all - because we believe Mao. "Power flows from the mouth of a gun". We tolerate, sadly, the death of innocents as a necessary cost to prevent the massive loss of life that occurs by state sanctioned violence. Mao - 40 million. Stalin - 40 million Hitler - 30 million Khmer rouge 8 million Darfour Ruanda Armenia ... if you total up the death by political persecution - the total dwarfs the accidental deaths by gun violence. Would hitler have exterminated the jews if they had guns - and used them? Would stalin have killed the peasants by famine if they had had guns - and used them? Tyrants prey upon the powerless... I did a little research on rebellions in the US outside of the Civil War, we had 3 large scale one, John Brown at Harper Ferry is well know and we know what happen. Then some 4,000 rebels in what was called "Shay's Rebellion of which after a few rounds of government grape shot from their cannons the rebel either surrendered or ran, some 30 rebels were either killed or wounded no government forces were scratched. Then the Whiskey Rebellion were some 7,000 farmers took up arms of a new Whiskey tax. Washington took command of a force of some 13,000 ill equipped force, some did not even have a musket or rifle and when the rebels saw them coming surrendered without a shot being fired. Washington later became the countries #1 Whiskey maker. So Tyrants prey upon the powerless? yeah right. Oh Stalin and Hitler were elected. Mao was popular with the people. Kirata spell check please.
