I don't care enough about you to hate you. Not enough emotional response.

Aww geez.

seriously though, it IS hard to get upset when whoever it is is an ocean away, and is part of a completely different country and culture.

I know I am sounding like a broken record, but I just have to post this one more time because I think it should be heard.



This sheriff succinctly makes nearly every argument that I think i've been trying to make in this thread. On this note, I am a bit tired of posting about this, so i'll bow out of this thread now. Not intended as a cope out, I'm just genuinely weary of the politics, and I hope this is all over soon.

Btw, I respect some conservative like you or Steve (don't know exactly if you are, but seems so).

I'm just amazed to see some folks here being so extreme in their posts (I'm sure you know who I'm talking about).

Peace out

Now that I can agree with. The primary reason the government is acting on gun control is so it can be seen as 'doing something'. It is primarily a political act rather than an effective act.

Well said that officer. When government tries to get involved with law enforcement, usually a mess will follow, I think any policeman could agree with that.

The question is, how does one address the 'culture of violence' and 'criminal gun activities', I don't think anyone in either the US or UK government knows the answer to this.
