    Related to centers associated with drug trade and the collateral crime associated with them, which is often in Ghettos.

    VG - "Well they have less gun homicides than we do. Good enough for me"

    Ah. I see VG is back to his "good enough for me." Well, yet again, he has no leg to stand on. He says nations with less homicides and gun control must have those low homicide rates because of the gun control.... but he can't cite a single documentable example of any nation, state, city, or town that ever enacted gun control and saw their homicide rates improve afterwards. In Europe, most nations saw their homicide rates go up after they enacted gun control. But "they have less gun homicides than we do and that's good enough for me." Simplistic and nonsensical foolishness.

    VG follows the propaganda tactic of, if you repeat something continually, it becomes true in the minds of the weak.

    Ahhh.., perpetrator or victim? Chic'n or the egg? If he had been raised as was I, he'd not likely have the same views as he hold here, so I'd suggest leftist news indoctrination... a victim of the Pollyanna virus.

    Which is why such must be called out and addressed regularly in order to prevent such from occurring.

    Due to the fact that absence of the truth allows the dishonest to take control of those who have yet to be informed of the facts, and brainwashed into believing what is nothing more than propaganda.

    There is more than one definition of insanity.

    When you see a Dog chase it's tail, it goes round and round and round, this is what Gun Control accomplishes, NOTHING at all.
    However, Gun Control yeilds other Fruits of the poisonous tree, the deaths of many disarmed and unintended defenseless victims of violent crime.

    well cities that banned legal handgun ownership were cesspools of murder. Mexico is pretty much a wet dream for the BM and its awash with the murders of judges and police. I also note that white americans are the most heavily armed (Legally) ethnic group in the world and our rate of firearms violence is about the same as whites in similar countries that don't have much in the way of legal gun ownership

    More people want to come here to reside that most destinations. The rights we protect are among the attractions; it's why I chose here over other options.

    :0) Lets! Who knows, maybe they might have managed to kill more than a few dozen of us in one go.

    You'd hope so wouldn't you, what with them being a "global terror network" and everything.

    Is it just me or are they a bit of a sh!t global terror network? I'm not geeing a globe terrorised, am i missing something?

    i think we should set a clear bench mark to measure them by.

    Apparently, americans shoot around 25,000-30,000 other americans dead each year - This is done in the name of freedom & safety.

    I think this would make a good bench mark because if killing 25,000+ people is a positive sign then i think we should use it to measure the effectiveness of terrorists.

    So, lets start small and go for an easy 50% target - when terrorists manage to kill approx 12,000 of us in a single year, i will then begrudgingly accept that there is a "global terror network"....and to make things even easier i'm regarding "us" as europeans and not just brits.

    This makes it easy for terrorists by giving them a larger target to aim at.

    So, a poultry figure of 12,00 europeans in 12 months - Or am i still aiming too high?

    I love the language - "cesspools of murder"

    You seem to know a lot about the word.
    We accidentally shoot muslims, americans accidentally shoot unarmed coloured people - We all have our issues.

    We'll stop accidentally shooting muslims when you give the impression that you are trying to mend your ways as well ;0)

    To be accurate, 20k of the 33k gun deaths each year are from suicide - Americans killing themselves, and our suicide rate is far from the highest in the industrial world. Nearly all of the remaining gun homicides are committed by people who are not legally allowed to own firearms already.
