Several Stabbed in Tokyo...(Dangers of a disarmed society)

Motive? I'm not some secret government employee. The UK and Scotland had a gun amnisty a year or two back, that would be a good start! You seem to think owning a gun equates to freedom?? Less vulnerable in their home from what? America isn't the only place in the world where people have their houses burgled you know, and most people outside of America don't require a firearm to feel invulnerable in their house.

I think owning a gun equates to assistance in the defense of ones liberty..... So your telling me you would feel invulnerable in your own home wielding a bat against someone with a hand gun?

Most burglars in the UK dont enter the premises with a handgun, do they in America?

Conceding that a portion do...... I reiterate my question... Do you feel comfortable bringing a bat to a gun fight?

That's a ridiculous statement cause you are basing your paranoia that everyone is armed to the teeth. By the way, how big is this portion of American breakins? 70% 80%? Cause unless it's as high as that, saying you need a gun to protect from a possible armed break in is unrealistic. It's just perpatrating an ongoing problem.

I never said everyone was armed to the teeth but if 1 out of 100 breakins occur with firearms that 1% chance is great enough to warrant the owning of a firearm for ones protection! 70 or 80% would be required at 50% its not?! so you would feel comfortable knowing that 5 out of 10 times someone were to break into a home it would mean the homeowner most likely being shot and maybe killed defending themselves.... thats a ridiculous statement sir...

On top of that your saying law abiding citizens with legally owned and registered guns are perpetuating intentional gun violence?! again ridiculous! Your arguments have no basis in reality... and again you fail to answer my question!

Would you feel comfortable bringing a bat to a gun fight?!

P.S. I dont know how you perpetrate a problem perpetrate being the execution or "committing of" perpetuate must have been what you were looking for...
