It can be hard for the police to protect citizens when everyone is armed... Probably be a bit easier if everyday citizens weren't packing :)Quote:

Probably be a bit easier if everyday citizens weren't packing Lets get this straight: the police never show up to protect you. They show up after the fact and tag the bodies, then start looking for the perpertrators. So don't be delusional about police protection, That old sign on police cars "To protect and serve" was always bullshit. they protect their own asses and serve their own interests. If you want protection from the crazies, you'll have to do the job yourself. There was a question asked by Michael Moore about why there were so many more gun deaths per capita in The US than Canada. The answer was sort of vague, but it boiled down to this: The Canadian Government actually cares about their constituents, health care, social programs, etc., whereas the USA doesn't give one fuck about the people. The people are seen as only as a source of revenue, and the government is controlled by the corporations, so there are many more poverty stricken areas and mean streets that kids are raised on, producing mean desparate people. Only a hypothesis I realize, but it makes sense to me. So next time you are robbed at gunpoint, or assaulted and raped, Wait there for a cop and yell help, Maybe one will show up and take a report, 15 minutes to an hour or more later, Or get yourself a carry permit and blow the assholes balls off, me, I opt for the latter.
OR if there's a suicide bomber or some other extremist. Damn dude, you'd be an asset to the team! :rambo:Quote:

LMAO!!! I'm one of the few in here "considered" Republican and also one of the few without a pistol or rifle. I'd say Medicinal is pretty much to the left and that dude is ARMED bigtime!Quote:

vigilante justice for all! i like where this is headed.
So many peope here think that if you outlaw guns then only outlaws will have guns.Well here in Canada the outlaws should be ruling the streets crime would be rampant and body bags would be all over the place.But that is not soo, why?Maybe we dont have as much desperate poor people here?I dont know any ideas?
you're all peace loving hippies ?
Higher4hockey lol i dont know bro hockey is pretty violent,so we do have it in us.When they talk about taking fights out of hockey the canucks just go nuts and hate the idea.Me myself i think fighting should only be in boxing but then again i dont follow hockey just football...
eg420ne... you talk shit on America.. and American men... but I will take my great country (which is becoming full of people from yours... ironic) and its "weak yellow bellies" any day of the week than live in Mexico... don't talk shit about America.. b/c its so much easier to do it on Mexico... and btw... your theories just prove your a fucking idiot.. nuff said...
:stupid:
Ever heard of a concept of protecting yourself?
You can't rely on government services, they only supplement. If you can't seek ways to protect yourself, the government can't protect you.

Well, I see you are from Canada so you clearly have no idea how to get a firearm permit in the US. You first need to go through a lengthy application process, full of paperwork and background checks. Next, you need to take a course on the safe use of firearms. Sounds like training to me.Quote:

In my state even if you are given a permit to carry a handgun you must keep ammunition seperate from pistol. Well, thats real fucking handy. What do you tell the idiot thats going to kill you? "Wait, you need to let me get some ammo out of the trunk".
Thats why I carry a 12 gauge and a .270 in the rack with shells laying in the console. It's perfectly legal because they are not concealed. I have no plans on killing off a small town or anything like that so I have no need to worry about having a 12-15 shot clip in an semi-automatic handgun on my person. Everyone where I live has a rifle, shotgun or both in their trucks. We have to kill all kinds of annoying shit around here. (snakes, red squirrels, groundhawgs, ceyotes, etc).
I am not a lawyer (thank god, John Edwards comes to mind), but I do believe the only people authorized to carry a loaded handgun are law enforcement. If I am wrong, one of the cann.com "lawyers" can correct me.
Psycho4, you aint the only one who is "right" here:D :D
Well, I am off to celebrate Earth Day. I have to cut a load or two of firewood.:chainsaw:

You are wrong, not only about hand guns, but if your avatar is any indication. about many things.
Yes I know... that was stupid of me... and I appologize.... but one more thing... the guy wasnt even American... so eg's original shot at American men isnt even legit...Quote:

Medi....I know for a fact in my state that "if" you are even granted a permit to carry a handgun you MUST not have gun loaded. I would guess that laws vary from state to state, but again, I do not know. I could look it up, but who gives a rats ass? 12 gauge/.270 in the back window is all I need.
Hell, I am not like that Alec Baldwin guy who threatens 11 year old gurls or nothing. I am a peace loving guy. I only need a gun to kill off an occasional varmit, not people.
By the way, I do like Annie.
Hope you are having a great weekend.

ZOHAR Yes the criminals do have guns here mostly smuggled from the U.S.But if you look at our murder rate of gun related homocide WE dont have a problem.So all you gun fanatics who think u have to carry a gun around to feel safe i feel very sorry for you.
I find it funny people use that "If they had guns they could fight back" argument. While it could be true in this one instance, how many news articles have we avoided by not allowing guns to be carried by anyone, everywhere? Local news from time to time has stories on road rage.. Someone gets cut off, a chase happens, and someone throws hot coffee on someone at the end.. Imagine the ending to that story if they had guns.
We have too many cocky SOB's in this country to allow citizens to just carry a firearm. Who needs the police or laws when we become a nation of vigilantly justice? Be a real man and use your fists.

What if you're a 90 lb weakling, are you supposed to let the bullies rule over you. "God made man, Smith and Wesson made them equal". Don't fuck with someone just because you are bigger and stronger. I think if everyone carried a gun out in the open like they did in the old west, people would have more respect for one another. All those shootouts you see in the movies, never happened, maybe one or two, but generally speaking, it was when the idiots got drunk and got in a fight that someone got shot. Just the fact that someone can end your life in a heartbeat gives you pause from being an asshole.Quote:

My thoughts EXACTLY!Quote:

But there is probably no way this act could have been prevented by LEO. The Nasa astronaut and engineer recent fiasco proves that anyone can snap with the right set of circumstances. Canada is always critical of American gun laws. Amazes me the difference in ideologies. I guess it is in the cultural upbringing, but guns are respected and used fo personal protection in the south here. A way of life really.
Nope, no bong hits. In fact here's a little secret, I hardly ever smoke, makes me paranoid. something that happened after I became a cokehead. I gave all that up years ago, but it still doesn't work for me like it used to. I used to love pot, smoked it day and night, a joint in the morning before work, one on the way and anytime I could during work and one on the way home. I spent the better part of 25 years either drunk or stoned on something. I got sober and found out that Pot doesn't work right for me, so I just breath air. I really don't miss it and having a clear head makes me feel better about life. I don't look down on anyone that partakes, I just don't need to.Quote:

Kassidy i agree its just the way your brought up.Guns make no sense to me at all and if you need to have a gun for protection well i think its time to find a safer place to live..LIKE CANADA lol..just kidding
Its strange when you think about it. A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. The right. We should of stopped this bullshit long ago. If everyone carried guns. Guns wouldn't be a problem. If they outlawed guns only law abiding people would abide. While the crooks would keep theres. It has been proven time and time again when a state enacts tough gun control measures the crime rate skyrockets. There is no worse thing than for a criminal to come upon an armed victim. Also theres always going to be a delay from when you call the cops till they get there. I don't know about your cops but ours would be pretty fucking worthless in a situation like the VA shooting. Now our highschool is a different story half the kids have pocket knifes and probably half of them have some sort of firearm in there car. A school shooter would have about a snowballs chance in hell if they came to our town.
In the end no ones going to take care of you better than you.
Couldn't agree MORE!
