I didn't address Darkfish. I supported August against your insipid diatribe.

as easy as 1,2,3
Nope, I say it helps to get *less* gun crime. Not that it *stops* gun crime.
Looks like someone had set up another false arguement
Darkfish, you will notice that augusts claims about gun control ands its aims are strawmen.
looks like somone points it out again.
Coming from the person who rarely posts any real arguments at all, just statements like this one.
looks like somone jumping in quoting me in relation to what Darkfish wrote.
So take it back a stage further.....
And nobody here says it does.
The point of gun control is to make it *harder* to get a gun and use it to shoot people. It's impossible to completely get rid of guns.
Is Darkfish saying august arguements are strawmen

And I specifically addressed the post in which you said nothing but nonsense.

Ah you mean the one where I took 3 of august arguements and had a laugh at his misrepresntations.
What do you think of Jumpys posts or Jims?
Jumpy has a good point, it was silly rushed legislation brought in after a couple of occasions when people who should already have been banned from holding firearms went mad, stupid populist knee jerk legislation.

a great many US gun-control advocates point to the UK as a shining example of how it should work

Which legislation are they pointing at ? England and wales, scotland or the 6. Are these people pointing at legislation they havn't got the faintest idea about?
Its funny really from another angle as many pro gun advocates point to Ireland as a really good example of the troubles caused when a country bans firearms. It matters not to them that the country hasn't banned firearms or that nearly all of the gun violence they are on about is in another state..... which also hasn't banned guns

which is what August addressed in his first post

Which was the first strawman. the aim is reduction as prevention is impossible
