IMPOSSIBLE. How could a firearm exist in a gun free zone? This is obviously a ploy by the gun lobby to lie to us.
Thanks for posting this,I remembered when this happened. I can't image the horror that these people went through.Seeing all those people getting shot and dying next to you,and knowing that there is nothing you can do about ..That can't be a very good feeling.One thing that the anti-gun crowd either chooses to ignore or refuses to believe. Is that it why do mass shootings seem to only occur in gun free zones? One only has to look at the tragedies of Luby;s cafe Virgina Tech, and the Colorado shootings to see that this is true. Thankfully I live in state where I don't even need a CWP to carry concealed.We have very few gun free zones in the state of Wyoming,and more and more states are making it easier to obtain a CWP,or going the route of not needing a permit at all.
When Dr. Hupp's mother was looking into the muzzle of the gun before she died, I am pretty sure she was not thinking 'Thank God my daughter obeyed gun control laws'.
All I can see is someone who is acute grief over losing their parents in a situation that would in all probability not have happened in the first place if there were anti-gun laws in the USA Pre gun buy back in Australia we had roughly one mass shooting per year, post this we have had one in over 10 years Even your own statistics show a horrendous rate of mass shootings that may or may not have peaked after gun laws were relaxed This is our experience
Where is "my own statistics" are you blabbering about? I notice you typically pull these strawman arguments to make your points. "Probably never happened" means it that if it didn't happen to her, it happend for someone else.
This is where you say whoops and slap your forehead. I checked the link for your graphics. 1 stop faking it and get genuine data about the USA 2 you should have stopped at 'your statistics' when you formulated a strawman arguement. At least you stopped giving advise on self defense that would get people killed. Now go away and do some research, your only embarrassing yourself.
Once again you ignore the point of the post: 1 stop faking it and get genuine data about the USA 2 you should have stopped at 'your statistics' when you formulated a strawman arguement.
I am getting rather tired of the continual attacks I have not attacked you in this manner. I have been polite, maybe occasionally sarcastic but I have remained in balance far nicer than I have been treated on this board. I think that says something about Americans I also think it says more about the attitude where even to question any of the beliefs surrounding guns, nay to fail to worship at the alter of the Great Gun God is to be treated as a heretic, accused of all manner of nefarious schemes Surely someone can hold a different opinion from you without this degree of attack
Here is your 'research' taken from your own post in text form. static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2012/7/21/1342878713153/Time-frame-murders-001.jpp Here is your explanation First this is not my statistics. This is your strawman arguement trying to assign this to me. Second your explanation does not match the text. I did your reseach for you. You don't like what I found, because it shows deception on your part.
I know that there is a difference between how we say things in Australia and how you say things in America but surely even over there one can use and inclusive pronoun
Does Bower ever think for a moment that maybe someone might have a point, that she does in fact constantly use strawman arguments?
Here's an old video during the Brady Bill hearings. This lady could have saved the day, if she could have had her gun with her: [video=youtube;BKuUVduvoJo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKuUVduvoJo[/video]
You're awfully thin skinned if you think taikoo jhas 'attacke' you in any way Grow a spine,stand by your posts without whining.
Compared to the USA what were the murder rates pre-ban? Did the ban do anything to solve Australia's problem with violent crime? The US is a very different place then Australia. For instance if Australia were to be invaded. and lost.. It's citizen's would have to surrender. We wouldn't.
Stop trying to pass off your research as a out the USA. I check your data. It isn't even about the USA. Stop faking it.
