Ok... They point is... is that it is the society and culture that determines violence, not the guns.

Why yes, some of them are... but not all of them... not even most of them. The AK's and other Soviet guns are everywhere, cheap and easy to get...

Ad hominem... the last resort of those without anything valid to say.

No... fix the problem... society and the people.

Ah, the thing I seen misreported it then...

Also... look at the drug smuggliung issue we have in the US... most accros the Mexico border, the stuff we find is only a small portion of the stuff that makes it into the country.

And look into Switzerland crime and gun deaths... they have mandatory gun ownership for every male between 18 and 35... in fact the government gives you the gun and bullets... a military grade assault rifle.

Yeah... it can take several minutes to load a ball and cap revolver.

Ball and cap pistols do not reload quickly... this is why many carried two pistols or more.

Not enough pressure even then.

Air Force... all you know is how to fly the plane and land on a nice runway somewhere... But there are more choices of aircraft you can learn to fly... better equipment... better facilities and good training.

If this is based on the chemical signal research... (the toxins are part of the signal/communication of bacteria) then it won't create any further resistant bacteria.

4 inches is about ideal on size and compactness in my eyes...

I have been complaining about this for a while now... I am so fed up that I considered the new iPhone... and I am not an apple fan at all.

The knife is poorly designed as a tool yes... there is nothing to prevent your hand from slipping up on the blade.

I would not go so far as to call them garbage... they have a certain spartan design that I like. I am not in love with the design, but I do find it visually interesting.

Basically, what he ^^ is saying is... if you stop letting them hurt you, by choosing not to be hurt/offended by the actions... you take away their power.

HAHA! Well, if you would like to discuss firearms, feel free.

Its the internet... everyone is right. :-P

Emotion really has no place in discussion.
