      These parents are building weapons of mass destruction for Lockheed Martin or some shit, so why are they suprised their children are being murdered? God has a sick sense of humor sometimes... Payback is a bitch.

          i think everyone needs a gun.

          look at how the soviet union and usa effectively kept the peace through fear for so long. knowing your neighbor could blow you and your buddies the fuck away at any second will keep anyone honest.

          its said a lot, but if guns are outlawed, only the outlaws will have guns.

          anti gun nuts will talk their shit till the end of time
          and when someone busts into their house and steals their shit i wont help them

            I think the implication was that the KKK was disbaned one year, they all went and started the NRA either that same year or the year after.

            So they quit the illegal club, and joined up in the more aptly named legal club.

              Ah that makes sense.


              I was also quite surprised about Marilyn Manson. Before watching the movie I thought that he was nothing but a freakin nutcase, but now I am very impressed and actually believe that he's an intelligent man.

                regarding the fear issue...michael moore has a very valid point.

                I've noticed it in the past, but it's really so much more noticeable now because I am looking for it.

                Every afternoon just turn into the shows before your local news comes on and they ALWAYS have tag lines like this...

                "The hidden dangers in your city's water."

                "Are their hidden dangers in the equipment at your children's schoolyard playground?" referring to arsenic in the wood.

                The list goes on....and these are substitutes for the slow news night otherwise it's...

                "Mother of two buys bat at wal-mart then beats her children to death."

                There is always a hidden danger lurking somewhere in our lives and the news just points it out every chance they get.

                  Marilyn Manson has not spread hatred or violence in this country. That's not what his music is about. He has committed a serious crime, however, and that is turning our youth into fashon victims. Seriously, anyone who dresses like that is going to have those pictures used against them as blackmail some day. Poor bastards.

                      I don't lock my doors when I'm home OR when I'm gone. I lock them at night just because if someone DID break in, I want to hear about it. In fact, my son left my front door wide open for more than 6 hours one day - I was just really pissed because it was 30 degrees outside and the heater had been running like crazy trying to heat the house!

                      My car keys are currently in my unlocked car. So is my wallet. Wig with achdebit.com (see sig ) lives on the other side of town, and his house is the same way. And I'll guarantee you that we have the highest percentage of gun owners (including handguns and automatics) than most areas of the US. Having a lot of guns in your town doesn't mean there's a high crime rate or that you're afraid.

                      Criminals are criminals. They will find ways to kill, rape, threaten, steal, etc. I have a guns for protection against people (I carry one in the car for when I have to go to Atlanta) and animals - animals don't have guns (at least that I know of......) so I don't just have guns because "the bad guys have guns".

                      I see the "gun related" death stats - does anyone have the actual CRIME stats for places? i.e. how many rapes, burglaries, robberies, murders etc. are in each location. Showing me how many GUN related deaths there are doesn't show ME the level of crime.

                      I know in Kennesaw, when they passed a law that said you must own a gun, crime dropped. You're not going to find many criminals that are excited about breaking into a home where they KNOW there's going to be a gun, hehehe.

                      And no, I haven't seen the movie - it's on the Netflix list though. I refuse to pay to watch it.

I have a criminology degree too so I have a little bit of knowledge in that subject as well. - and I AGREE with the canadian policy. Rifles and shotguns are cool and fun and more than adiquate for home protection and defending yourself against a mob or such, but no one really has a need for automatic weapons and handguns cept maybe for police and soldiers.



                        Automatic weapons are illegal in the US...for the average person to purchase. It requires a very special Federal license to purchase automatic weapons. Some are illegally owned and they represent less than 1% of all gun related crimes. It is cheap handguns that are overwhelmingly responsible for gun deaths in the USA (so called saturday night specials).

                        I live in a high crime county. It is a high crime county because of the drug users. Most businesses in the area require drug tests to be employed at the business (I would imagine this would apply virtually everywhere in the States). Pot users and users of other types of drugs cannot pass a drug test thus they remain unemployed. In order to buy their drugs they resort to crime. I keep my doors locked day and night (there have been several home entries during the day). I own several weapons and seldom...if ever...go anywhere without being armed.

                        It is my understanding that 70% of our prison population is composed of drug related criminals. It is difficult for druggies to get a job...and it is difficult for them to hold a job...so they resort to crime...and some of the crime is gun related crime...including shootings.

                              Good point, Peaches. While British shootings are relatively low, there may well be a disproportionate number of stabbings and other violent attacks over there. As for Canada... well, who knows what keeps those gosh darn Canadians so nice... must be sedatives in the beer up there or something.

                                There is places in the US where people dont lock their doors. Like North Minnasota and Montana

                                Alot of other places just have more fucked up people and fucked up things happen.

                                Maybe fucked up people dont like cold

                                        ALCOHOLICS AND GUNS DONT MIX!
                                        Pot smokers have a difficult time finding employment...they also have a difficult time holding a job once they gain employment. Thus they resort to crime...as it is difficult to survive without income from somewhere. They committ all types of crimes...primarily burglaries...but some also committ gun related crime. I will state again that it is my understanding that 70% of the prison popultation are in prison because of drug related crime...and that means those that were stealing or robbing among other things...and they sometimes kill when robbing.

                                          I don't think anyone who's not either under the age of 14 or on heroin anyway turns to crime to pay for pot. Pot can't wack your head out so much that you'd put smoking it over getting a much needed job. For that you'd need a drug that would actually compensate for a shitty life on the streets, like heroin.

                                            You really need to educate yourself before making posts.

                                            Your 'stoner stereotype' is enough, the rest doesnt even deserve response.

                                            Most Marijuana related crimes are for POSSESSION. But the UNEDUCATED always like to speak louder than they should.

                                            Its funny to see alcoholics blame pot smokers for 70% of the prison population

                                                    You said yourself that possession is a fine. 70% of the prison population are not in prison for possession...they are there for criminal activity...because they were drug users...including pot...of course some are there for being dealers. 70% is not my number BTW.

                                                        I would think that more often than not, "being dealers" just means they had more than an ounce on them. I recently got charged with distribution in a school zone when I was doing no such thing, didn't even have knowledge of the marijuana in my car and had no packaging or weighing materials. I also had only a few dollars in cash on me. Anyone who smokes knows that an ounce really isn't all that much pot.

                                                              Yeah unless it's mandatory minimums in a school zone. Even if you get caught outside a school zone if it's your first offense you'll just get probation.

                                                              But lumping marijuana into the "causes of drug related crime" is pretty weak. It's like making alcohol illegal cause winos snatch purses for bottles of cheap vodka.

                                                                                where there are few restrictions on purchasing handguns,

                                                                                People in NZ still own guns, mostly shotguns and rifles,
                                                                                for hunting and home protection (despite few home invasions);
                                                                                the difference is you can't carry a rifle around 24/7
                                                                                concealed under your coat ready for your next arguement.

                                                                                (per capita)

                                                                                Proving that people are no less violent only that violence is

While British shootings are relatively low, there may well be a disproportionate number of stabbings and other violent attacks over there. As for Canada... well, who knows what keeps those gosh darn Canadians so nice... must be sedatives in the beer up there or something.

                                                                                        I think the lack of US social structure probably has something to do with it.. people at the fringes aren't cared for as much as they are in other countries.. That's a price the US has decided to pay for it's economic dominance perhaps? only a theory anyway.

No doubt if you have more people living in a concentrated area, you are bound to have more crime committed.

Murder is personal. Act like it. Take responsibility. Get up close and be a part of it. Accept some risk. Otherwise, you're not ready for it.
