How much did you pay?

If a country want to have arms for all in case the British invade, then they can do that. But they seriously need to tighten regulations and get better system in place.

Example is why have high powered automatic military grade machine guns for sale.
This is overkill for self defense and a mockery if used hunting. It is just for show or blowing shit up.

... and ego stroking. The idiot yanks are good at that.

didnt waste a second of time watching it
unlike you

did that shit taste good wrapped in shiny comedy...

Not a criteria, just common sense really.

Start off light and easy and work your way up.

Fucking hell, someone cited John Oliver as a serious source. :lol:

He's the Fox News of the Left.

John Oliver is the Messiah.

The arguments are sound even if they're delivered in a comedic format.

But I wouldn't expect a 9/11 troofer and holocaust denier to be swayed by logic so I'm not surprised at your post. (Or am I mixing you up with Fredsta?)

gotta love the non sequitur as an argument tactic

introduce a completely unrelated incident when you cannot argue the one at hand

Yeah because I totally said that :roll:

If you believe John Oliver you are as brainwashed as the people you make fun of for watching Fox News. Anyone can get an old, senile person to represent the other side of the argument, how about John Oliver interviews people like Ben Shapiro on gun control?

A government could surely never turn on its own people could it ? surely not....

If the US government wanted to turn on its own people, semi-automatic weapons are not going to be able to stop them.

You do realise he is a political satirist . And a comedian .

This argument ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

I guess you haven't learn anything at all from recent history. Forgetting about Vietnam? Or more recently Afghanistan and Iraq? A few thousand militants in hills successfully staved off the most powerful fighting force in history by simply employing guerilla tactics. Now, imagine millions of people doing that.

There are about 300 million guns in America, meaning that there is about 1 gun per person. If the government were to rise up in tyrannical fashion, how many do you think would fight back? I'd realistically say about 1 in 10, but I'll use a conservative estimate of 1 in 20. So that's 15 million fighters armed with an assortment of semi-automatic weapons. If the US military can't control a few militants in hills, how are they going to control millions of fighters that can be disguised as their own citizens?

You can't control a street corner with a B-2 bomber. You can't maintain order in Colorado with an Aircraft carrier docked in Philidelphia. You need boots on the ground to monitor the situation. And consider this: What about if some military personal disagree with what the government is doing? What if they give weapons and hardware to the people who fight back?

So now, the fight becomes much more even.

yes, that is why it is stupid for people such as Mrubenz to use his work as evidence.

People believing a comedian about it are hilarious . Also why get so angry mumrum seems the type to believe fairies are real .

Regardless of who said what, if you need a gun to feel safe (many Americans clearly do) then you have problems in your society.

Guns just up the stakes and lead to people shooting first and asking questions later. Its idiotic.

No shit, the reason you have guns is because of problems in society.

so take the guns away from the police then

Spot on.

Good logic

Guns don't kill people . It's people with something wrong with them that kill people . Seriously why is it hard for some states in America to implement a mental health check ?

switched the uzi to full automatic too after shooting just one round before that

some states in murica dont even have mental hospitals anymore, the mentally ill have to live on the streets

Exactly so why let them have guns to sort their problems out with?

If anyone thinks guns make anything safer they deserve a frontal lobotomy so their good bits can be donated to science so their life was actually worth something.

Reminds me of a quote . You can tell where a country is morally on how they treat their poor and their sick . Sadly a lot of first world countries tend to ignore this for vote getters

wow you bought the T-shirt didnt you. the agenda all along has been to get more people into the mental health database and ultimately onto SSRIs which have become an epidemic in the USA and fast becoming one here

perhaps you should be audited for such a check the next time you renew your drivers license, or buy drano, or a kitchen knife or whatever....rights? what are they...

thats been the case in Australia for decades
deinstitutionalism

a Jack Nicholson movie had something to do with it

Showing great logic there Ricey :lol:
