That's perfectly normal for people holding a gun. And it is what is so destructive.

Two people from a nation that fear even allowing it pistol team to have firearms how interesting this irrational fear of having firearms in the UK.

One would assume if either one of you happen to have an evil firearm in your care it would in some strange manner turn you to the dark side as in the ring in the lord of the rings story.

Both of you would go out on killing sprees force to do so by the evil firearm in your homes.

I think it is more a "the kind of people who own guns" problem.

I doubt, however, that a picture will tell you whether an individual should be considered a poor prospect for owning a gun. I think what the person says and does would be a better indicator.

There are people posting here, H2O, who sound to me like they are not nearly mature or psychologically fit to own one.

Get that picture!

As opposed to being from a nation where deaths by firearms are so commonplace they're not even considered newsworthy.

Could be!

But neither are you...and considering the conversation, the fact that you are not is much, much more important.

Think, H2O...then post.

LOL sorry I am not going to waste anymore time on reading IZZY postings as he is a bigger lair concerning my positions on issues then you been of late.

He sure been trying by any means to attacked little old me ever since I prove long ago that his claims that the US was just pocketing the empire money and letting others died before Pearl Harbor happen not to be true.

That we did indeed lose ships and men in the ice cold Atlantic Ocean before Pearl Harbor supporting them.

Do you think if parents and officials had responded to the many red flags that popped
up as these three evil people grew up things would have turned out differently?

So we should report people that aren't in touch with reality and make sure they can't have access to guns? Sounds like a plan. Maybe you should self report and turn in your own guns.

Indeed. But MP Commander Oliver Locker-Lampson and another British government agent had them.(The photo was taken in Roughton Heath, Cromer, Norfolk, UK)

If I'm a lair, what beast dwells within?

What a lot of bollocks you spout. You seem to be of the opinion, based purely on your subjective reading of WW2, that your garbled nonsense must be treated with reverence by everyone from our side of the pond.

America entered WW2 because of Pearl Harbor not out of any altruistic desire to save 'Merry Old England.' America acted in its interests throughout and sold munitions food etc to the UK, at first for cash on the nail, and later for landlease which has been paid back. America did make a tidy sum, but Hitler was as big a threat to the American way of life at he was to the security of the UK. It was in America's interests to stop the UK making peace with Nazi Germany.

If America had purely been interested in saving 'Merry Old England' it would have got involved in 1940. As for American servicemen/seamen dying before Pearl Harbor, the sea is a dangerous place, people do die there, even in peace time. Your figure of about 200 fatalities from the invasion of Poland to the bombing Pearl Harbor is really very tiny, especially when compared to allied losses in the same period, or shooting in America in 2010.

In 2010 there were 358 murders involving rifles. Murders involving the use of pistols in the US that same year totaled 6,009, with another 1,939 murders with the firearm type unreported.

Btw I don't object to America acting in its own interests, I object to slobbering idiots like you, who think you deserve some recognition for events you took no part in.

In any event this is just your feeble attempt to wrap yourself in the flag, because you can't deal with the issues at hand.

allowing the government to expand the count of those deemed to be unfit to use guns is the obvious compromise. unfortunately government is increasingly deemed to be unfit to carry out its duties.

Well, Hawk, your side of the political spectrum seems always to be suggesting free enterprise can do what government cannot. So perhaps the "obvious compromise" ought not to be conceived of as only a governmental assessment. Maybe a panel of concerned citizens of some sort can be established to do the job.

@parados,

Yes I suppose he was.
Do you hope his predictions will come true and World War IV is fought with sticks and stones? We wouldn't want to be fighting with guns now do we?
