So says one who does EXACTLY the same thing with walls of text.
I have all the equipment in my basement work shop. All the knowledge to build things like automatic weapons and silencers for them, timed or proximity bombs, etc. But for some strange reason? I haven't went hunting Humans nor ever built said devices. So there's a more important function involved that no one seems to want to address. Last edited by Jeff-Groves; 06-07-22 at 04:40 PM. |

Please tell me I'm wrong but I get the feeling that the Americans values the 2nd Amendment more than a human life.

My opinion?
Should the 2nd Amendment be taken away and Gov't try to come get the registered guns? The Ukraine will look like a cartoon! And the whole World will suffer the results. |

Dude, really, did you just accuse me of not caring about human life? It sure as hell looks it too me. Two words immediately come to mind which express exactly what I think about your accusation of me. “Piss off” as defined by Citations–all from British or Commonwealth sources–date from 1934 with the most recent being from David Mitchell’s Black Swan Green, 2006: “The gypsy kid sat under the cedar sending out piss off waves.” The dictionary doesn’t say so, but it seems to me clearly a euphemism for the saltier “f— off.”.

Seems solutions from those outside the USA is based on crazy thinking.
Their solution to problems in a marriage would probably be "Get rid of the Spouse!" |

It was because some of the interviews Swedish and Danish tv had made in Texas where they interviewed ordinary people and the answer they gave. Made me wonder. Nevertheless I understood I was wrong. Wrong in generalizing- Once again I'm sorry accusing you and the other of my American friends. Markus

It should have been written this way
The following weeks after the mass shooting un Uvalde Texas Danish and Swedish tv had some reporters in that state and the answer they got from ordinary Texan gave me the impression that there are some American who value the 2nd Amendment more than a life. Markus

I value both the Constitution AND life. I worked in Galena Park, TX for three years does that count?
The problem lies not with guns or the 2nd amendment the problem is with the few people who do not value their own or another’s life. Some say to change that it starts in the home, with a father, a mother. None which Salvador Ramos had.

Being that you reside in Denmark, I don't blame you that you may have a distorted perception of the U.S . With few exceptions of violence, perpetrated by disturbed individuals, we value all life. Unfortunately, it's those exceptions and those horrible individuals that get the headlines. Why is that ? Simple. Bad news travels fast, grabs the headlines and sells newspapers. Whenever a disaster, earthquake, tsunami's, etc hits a country, it's usually the U.S that is one of the first countries to respond. In a number of documented cases, people from the U.S have left their jobs, families and positions to travel to another country experiencing a disaster to render aid and expertise. How many other countries do that ? With regards to weapons, I notice it's rarely if ever reported that an armed homeowner or someone with a concealed carry license protected his home and or family from an armed intruder or intervened to protect a police officer that was being attacked with a legally owned and carried weapon. If you watch the news or read the papers, armed cowards attack soft targets like grade schools and the like where they know an armed response isn't likely. Responsible, armed citizens make poor targets. Why you ask ? Quite simply, armed cowards such as what we are talking about don't want to attack a school, institution or home where they know there is a good chance of their fire being returned and an armed response is a certainty. In the case of the Uvalde school shootings, there were inexcusable break downs of protocols. Before you say the U.S doesn't value life, you should perform your due diligence in ascertaining the facts and look at the big picture and our collective history. I understand your perception of the U.S is being filtered through various news outlets that may well have an agenda and so, you may not have a clear picture. I would ask that your analysis be based on the facts and not hype. Last edited by Commander Wallace; 06-08-22 at 10:46 PM. |

Almost all Western countries. Quote:
Then why is this a US-only problem and not a problem of the nations with very few armed citizens? And as far as I remember there have been several school shootings in which the "coward" knew perfectly well that there could and would be armed resistance, yet he still went on. I even remember one shooting in which the perpetrator wore some kind of armor (have to look up which shooting it was). The main point remains: between 2009 and 2018 the US had 288 school shootings. The other G7 nations had 5 (five) combined, and these six nations have a combined population of 435 million people, about one third more than the US. |
