Kiwi:
I support gun control to a point, I don't want 12 year olds running around with a M16 or a nutter having a AK 47.

Do you want to end up like cuba?

Weapons should only be in the hands of trained people. That includes civvies with training.

I feel that more education on the correct use of firearms is needed, far more of lax controls.

Ambiorix:
If we in Europe allow people to carry guns, wouldn't that make a multi-ethnical war much more easier to come true?

CRIME CONTROL; NOT GUN CONTROL

America is going to have to follow the road once taken by England, in exiling its criminals to islands or other areas which are completely untamed and wild.

This is how the State of Georgia came into existence; it originally was a penal colony where incorrigibles were sent to fend for themselves using only their wits.

Australia came into being in this exact same manner.

We can not afford to house and feed an ever larger prisoner population.

How about shipping them all off to Papua New Guinea; if they don't get eaten by the headhunters or the kimodo dragons, they might live there; far away from civilized society.  I understand that much of that place is still unexplored.

Up until 1934 it was legal for a 10 year-old to buy ANY weapon including full-auto Browning machine guns in the USA. You'll note there were NO school shootings and virtually no misuse of firearms by kids before that time.
