Hey Stokes!

At least I had the courtesy to link to some numbers.

Gun per capita = Lame Argument

I own seven guns. So what. If my neighbor owns 0 guns, he owns 0 guns.

Apparently they did not. I'm still trying to understand the point of that number. I'm sure the number of banana's per 100 people is extraordinarily high in the Dominican Republic. What does that prove?

There are many valid arguments supporting gun control, you just haven't made of any of them thus far in this thread.

i often see americans cry when others generalize about them, but often i see you do it yourself.

15ofthe19 remaining iq points, look at table 2, All Adults, add the numbers.
Add alittle to count in those that have more then 3 weapons.

 

Yes I can read a table. Table 2 is a breakdown of all gun owners.

If you would make an effort to speak english, it would be much appreciated. Your post is completely non-sensical.

 

Hey sweety,

Your statistic pertaining to the total number of guns in the USA? Some estimates place the number closer to 300 million. How is this a bad thing?

Your other statistic is meaningless. You are comparing apples and oranges, a common liberal tactic. First, over half of these “firearm related deaths” are suicides. Second, what is the population difference between Doucheland and the US? Third, the “nonfirearm related homicides” are of similar proportion to the “firearm related homicides”, meaning we (US)just have a general crime problem overall that I think stems from a shitty judicial system.

Here is your precious link sweety.

BTW many Germans DO favor warm beer. My company does business with Siemens, and when they come here, they complain about the cold beer. Fact.

Also, which of my statements concerning firearms is “gibberish”?

i repeat myself , but now with a bigger font

United States: 30,419 (11.3 per 100,000)


First, over half of these “firearm related deaths” are suicides.

now that´s what i call meaningless

so we take the half away ( of course for both countries ) and what´s the result ?
lol ....
my point is just that you kill each other more than it happens in other cultures !
so my advice : take the guns away from amerikans - they can´t handle them


Also, which of my statements concerning firearms is “gibberish”?

maybe this :
83-96% of the US inhabitants owns guns?
or maybe that :
pool control


BTW many Germans DO favor warm beer. My company does business with Siemens, and when they come here, they complain about the cold beer. Fact.

oh ....more gibberish
as i said , nobody here likes warm beer ... it´s just that we also hate ice-cold beer !
now if you say we like warm beer just because you serve your beer too cool ...... then , it´s not my problem
and since you guys over there have no clue about beer - i´ll stop talking about beer now

uh-oh ..... i forgot something:
Second, what is the population difference between Doucheland and the US?

now tell me : are you really that dumb ?

ps : it´s deutschland you brainiac

 

Ah!! We finally extract your true elitist intentions. You can have guns, but we can not.


"Also, which of my statements concerning firearms is “gibberish”?

This was your statistic beer boy.

 

Also, show me a study that relates to the total # of guns in a country vs. the "firearms related deaths"

( and may i add that you are bad at maths ? )


Also, show me a study that relates to the total # of guns in a country vs. the "firearms related deaths"


what´s up with you ? is wish-ya-something-day or what ?
you want a study ? go , search it !
you wanted to show me that i´m not right and now I have to search for evidence that debunks my own statement ?

yes , this must be freako-country ......

 

300 million guns used for target practice and hunting is a good thing. :bugeye:

 

some facts :

Approximately 1,500 children, ages 14 and under, are treated annually in hospital emergency rooms for unintentional firearm-related injuries.

In 1998, 121 children, ages 14 and under, died from unintentional firearm-related injuries; more than half of those children were between the ages of 10 and 14.

Nine times as many children die from unintentional firearm-related injuries in the US than in the next 25 industrialized countries combined.

In 1999, non-powder gun-related injuries (for example, BB guns or pellet guns) sent nearly 7,800 children to hospital emergency rooms for treatment.

 

And half a million or so are treated for injuries occuring
from bicycle accidents... should we get rid of them as well?

:m: Peace.

 

should we get rid of them as well?

is it this really a silly question or are you showing something here ?
all i can say in the moment is there are things that are more avoidable

ps : allow guns for kids and then compare the numbers

 

and hey ..another thing :

isn´t that impressive ?

 

We do. In the same way that we allow them bikes... or compare statistics in other areas. My point is that as a statistic, gun accidents are comparitively low - I would even bet that more kids are injured riding the school bus each year.

:m: Peace.

 

now you really confuse me ....
ok , what about making school buses ( pardon ... don´t know the plural ) more safe ?
plus the fact that a school bus is really important - but are guns ?


btw , wtf ...? kids in america aren´t allowed to own/use guns , are they ?

 

I guess that would depend on the actions of adults - just like for guns.

Not own, but use? Absolutely. If adults are resposible it is not an issue. I grew up with guns in our house, locked in a safe - and I continue that practice as an adult.

:m: Peace.

 

I don't want to get involved in this debate, but I have to just say:

If adults are resposible it is not an issue.

How do we discern or how do we qualify what is a responsible adult? I think the death rate that Sweet has shown is that there is a significant portion of Americans who aren't "responsible". It dosen't add up...

 

I think the death rate in other areas would demonstrate the same.
I is not specific to any one area of life. Accidents will always happen.
You can reduce them, but you cannot eliminate them.

:m: Peace.
