Nut job
"Ha! Now this is bullshit. While I'm all for tough laws and zero tolerance, I'm aware that they don't "prevent" anything. Have tough laws and zero tolerance stopped the drug problem or drunk driving? No. The same would apply to guns."
Ok simple logic.
A country like Australia have relativley tough gun laws compared to the US.
We have just as much (or close) crime and just as many criminals as the USA per capita....so why is it that we have a MASSIVELY lower homicide rate via the way of GUNS per capita in comparison?
I can give you figures if you need...but then deep down you know Im telling the truth, and deep down you know why also.....dont you??

again, you cannot compare two totally different cultures with different histories. the gun culture in the US is well rooted in our history. you cannot all of sudden just implement guns laws and expect them to work.
drugs are illegal here....you think that's working?

Honestly, I'm not sure exactly what you're getting at here.
I don't deny for a second that, in many respects, the U.S. is the most violent nation in the world.
But, as I said before, the reasons for that are much more complex than how many guns there are floating around and what our laws are.

There's an Australian lady who is facing a life sentence or possibly death in Indonesia, because they found pot in her suitcase. I don't want America to turn into that kind of extreme society.
Good that she is.
When in Rome, act as a roman. Who does this woman think she is, going to another country along with a substance that their laws deem forbidden.
Let me tell you, Indonesia has tough laws sure, but check out their crime rates concerning all crimes; very damn low. Because over there, it is a think of the society as a whole #1, and think of oneself after #2. But the thing is, when everyone thinks of their society as a whole first, it actually betters life for the individual. Quality of life there is very good.
In the states, it's me, me, me, end of story.

She said she didn't know the customs regarding drugs.
If that were your sister would you feel the same way? Try looking at it like that. If you relate to someone it's harder to separate yourself from them.?
Third-World countries practice extreme methods. Hanging someone for using drugs is unholy. I don't want that poor lady to be executed over something like that. I understand wanting your country to be safe and moral, but it seems to me that certain officials try to play God, by taking lives and placing fear into the heart of the people.
The States may be very flawed, but at least we live as we want instead of how we're told. And as far as it being about me, me, me, life is about us (
meaning everyone in the world
). We're here to make our own decisions and find out what life is. We're not supposed to be ruthless dictators toward each other, but leaders, and there is a difference. Compassion must overrule pride.

I guess since SLC cant back his arguments on this thread with arguments about Bush's failings in Iraq he chose not respond.

Weapons only made evil people more efficient.
Its in the makeup of human beings to be evil, look at Cain and Able.
Even if guns were never invented, people would still be chaotic and you will still have tons of attrocities.

Yeah I agree, but shouldn't commas use to seprate sentences, also when you try to make an stament that is not supposed to be in the same topic as the original idea? I tried to make a correction look if thats understandable.
