You have Milo making statements like this and yet he has not a clue what our back ground checks even consist of.

I don't need to know, it is obvious to everyone that they are not stringent enough.
Anyway, the whole concept of allowing ordinary people to possess guns is frankly insane and not allowed in most civilised countries.

Chicago, murder capital of the USA

And did Ivanka Trump rile the mayor of Chicago yesterday in her tweets about that.
Ivanka drew renewed national attention to Chicago's problems with gun violence by writing, "As we grieve over the evil mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton, let us not overlook that Chicago experienced its deadliest weekend of the year."

Another tweet read:
"With 7 dead and 52 wounded near a playground in the Windy City -- and little national outrage or media coverage -- we mustn't become numb to the violence faced by inner city communities every day," she tweeted.

It's almost like these mass shootings are being used for political purposes while the inner cities like Chicago every day mass shootings with "illegal guns" are being ignored.

Remember, handguns are outlawed in Chicago which proves the point that more laws or stricter back ground checks are not the answer Milo.

Now the question is, since there will ALWAYS be illegal guns out there no matter what......why shouldn't an upstanding citizen have the right to own a legal gun (as our beautiful Constitution allows us) of his/her choice to protect their family with against people with an illegal gun ?

You have just answered the question then.
A total ban on all guns.
Zero tolerance.

You have your mind made up and don't listen do you or are you just playing the devils advocate for attention.
Read that again only slowly this time.

Remember, handguns are outlawed (banned) in Chicago which proves the point that more laws or stricter back ground checks are not the answer Milo.

HANDGUNS ARE ALREADY TOTALLY BANNED WITH ZERO TOLERANCE IN CHICAGO !
Get it that time ?????
zero tolerance does not work ! Stricter back ground checks do not work, banning them does not work, ALL THAT DOES is unarm law abiding citizens putting them in harms way and denying them their Constitutional rights.

I don't need to know, it is obvious to everyone that they are not stringent enough.

You don't need to know ? Obvious to everyone ?
Now come on to reality and quit being an ass.

I have been listening to these stupid arguments for over 20 years.

ALL THAT DOES is unarm law abiding citizens putting them in harms way and denying them their Constitutional rights.

Listen to yourself.
You sound like the young child that daddy has just taken the breadknife he was playing with away in case he hurts himself or somebody else, stamping your feet and bawling " Daddy don't take my toy away!"

Now grow up!

my plan is made public.

Your plan is not viable as you are well aware.
What I do find laughable is that you want the US to look at how Israel protects its schools and public buildings. Israel is a war zone. Enough said.

Any changes to the 1st amendment are likely to go down as well as my plan to ban guns. You either have your precious freedom of speech or you don't. Exceptions allow the door to be opened a bit wider each time.

a semi auto AR-15 IS NOT an assault weapon Pam so quit your propaganda by spinning the truth into a lie.

What are you talking about? I never mentioned an AR-15, Rich did. The reports I have read stated that the El Paso shooter used an AK-47 semi-automatic style rifle, which as I'm sure you know, IS an assault weapon.

A person with a legal handgun won't murder someone because they know it'll be traced right back to their gun,

Clearly that hasn't had much of an impact on the number of gun homicides. Same argument as with the death penalty. If it was an effective deterrent, no-one would be living on death row.

Jealous that they can't own one to protect themselves

Here we go again. Jealous, along with hate, your two favourite words. Why on earth would I want to own a gun? I don't need one living in a nice safe environment. There is nothing about living in the US that I am jealous of. Quite the contrary, I actually feel sorry for you guys living in a climate of fear.

No, I am not as sure as you seem to be.
Do you want to explain to her that a semi-automatic AK-47 IS NOT an assault rifle Dirk cause she isn't going to believe me.

See, this is the problem Pam, you only know what bias propaganda and fake CNN news tells you.
Consequently you don't have the facts to debate this issue.

Why on earth would I want to own a gun? I don't need one living in a nice safe environment.

Then don't own one but don't tell me that I shouldn't own one just because you don't want to own one.

I don't think you should own a car as it could be used as a potential weapon for mass murders.

I actually feel sorry for you guys living in a climate of fear.

Don't feel sorry for us, pray for us to have plenty of ammo to protect ourselves.
Like I told Snitch, probably best you stay out of this debate being ill informed as you are on the subject.

There already is a ban on assault (spelled assault) weapons in the U.S.

In 1994 the Federal Assault Weapons Ban came into effect. Written into that legislation was an expiration date of 10 years. In 2004 the ban was over. Obama tried to get the ban renewed after Sandy Hook but failed. The Senate voted not to renew. Individual states of course have their own gun-control laws, but you are not correct in saying that the US has banned assault weapons, it hasn't.

I now realise that I need to trust my own instincts more

Yep, it takes a while to get to know peoples true colours on PF. Just read what they post and make your own mind up :)

Just Google is an AK47 an assault rifle........

Exactly. Every source I've looked at states that it is an assault rifle.

The only people who argue that only fully automatic weapons should be called assault weapons are the US gun nuts.
And even then, it is only an argument.

Oh Milo STOP ! Just fcking STOP !
You & Pam are driving me nuts with your ignorance today.
Please put your little hammers away.
Google answer and the United States gun law code that you obviously are not aware of.
question and correct answer.
Is a semi-automatic AK-47 an assault rifle ?
It depends whether or not the rifle is semi automatic or fully automatic. A semi automatic rifle, regardless of the caliber or make is NOT an assault rifle.

Prime example how you have been brainwashed by CNN and FAKE NEWS and their propaganda.
(Tell a lie often enough to the useful idiots and it becomes truth)
I know you don't want to believe this but unfortunately for you it is the truth.
Why guns in America are such a concern to you uninformed Brits is astonishing.

but you are not correct in saying that the US has banned assault weapons, it hasn't.

And Jesus wept......
Show me were I ever stated that.
It is true however.
The U.S. has banned assault weapons for citizens use unless you have a Federal Permit to own one which is almost impossible to get.

Yes, that is a true statement, contrary to your belief.

You are wrong Pam, it most certainly has.

It has not. The Federal Assault Weapons ban was over in 2004. Individual states, as I said, have their own gun control laws, currently, 7 states and the District of Columbia have a continuing ban on assault weapons, but the rest of the US has not.

@Crnogorac3

Amerikanci imaju izreku: "Guns makes people polite" (Oružje čini ljude ljubaznijima).

Amerikanci veruju da je posedovanje oružja suštinsko pravo, kako bi se narod osigurao da na vlast neće doći totalitarni režim i tiranija.

Not a single of the nine points? And that is your response?

Any changes to the 1st amendment are likely to go down as well as my plan to ban guns.

Nonsense. Judges routinely impose gag orders and, thus, strip the press, the lawyers, and the jurors of their 1st Amendment right to write and speak about the case.

7 states and the District of Columbia have a continuing ban on assault weapons, but the rest of the US has not.

Nonsense again. The whole US has a ban on the assault weapons. Some states have a ban on the the weapons that LOOK like the assault weapons the feds have banned. To the liberal morons here, that's what we call "doing something", going home and telling liberal moron voters that they "did something" to make the liberal moron voters smile. Until the next shoot out in a school somewhere - made possible by the refusal to implement the measures that work in Israel.

No, Israel is not in the war zone. You know why? Because they were smart enough to build that beautiful 30-ft high wall. That's why. If they were in a war zone, there would be no tourists going there by the thousands. Would you?

All we need to know is how you asshats reacted after Sandy Hook. Guns over children, pro life until you are born, party over country -- the mantra of the American conservative.

Says a liberal. The conservatives - those people with brains and capable of rational thought - say: we have 300,000,000 guns and there is squat we can do about THAT. So, the only thing we CAN do is control the people who may have guns and protect the good ones where they assemble. Duh!

How? By talking to the Israelis where they post armed guards at the school entrances and allow teachers to be armed - two things capable of inducing a heart attack in a leftist, the same one that already HAS hired armed guards for his kids here in the US, as is done where Obama's lovely girls had been going. How nice of the daddy to protect his own and telling the unwashed masses: tough sh*t, no guns in your progressive "no gun zones"!!! We don't want your unwashed kids to get hurt, you know. Because we love them and we care sooo much.

Did you read all of the above or stopped after the first sentence?

YOUR PLAN to ban guns in the U.S. ? HAhahahaha
"Hi, my name is Pam Snow White from London and I am here to change your gun laws."
Even a Brit like yourself should know it is the 2cd Amendment before you walk into our Supreme Court and tell them of YOUR plan to ban OUR guns.

(To hilarious.....You can't make this stuff up)

have a continuing ban on assault weapons, but the rest of the US has not.

Not true, there is a nation wide ban assault rifles in the U.S.
Just go into a gun store and try to buy one and you will see.
Red flags would go up everywhere.

Guns over children

Intentionally crushing babies skulls kills millions more children than guns do so let's talk about that Mr. Liberal who's State literally smells like %@*#.

No one can "ban" assault weapons, period. Users simply have to be trained when and where to use them....OR ELSE!!

johnny reb
7 Aug 2019  #441

WHAT ??? More Liberal propaganda that is simply not true.
Come on Lyzko, you want to involve yourself in this debate at least start with something sensible.

The U.S. has banned assault weapons for citizens use unless you have a Federal Permit to own one which is almost impossible to get.

Did you hear me that time ?
Possibly an ex-military and retired law enforcement person with a spotless record could 'maybe' get a license for one.
You or me wouldn't stand a snowballs in hells chance of getting one.
Especially you since you wouldn't know how to load one.

Lyzko
7 Aug 2019  #442

Why then for the love of life is it necessarily "liberal" to ask that people think before they act huh??! In the end, there's only ONE sensible way to think: BAN THE PEOPLE, NOT THE GUNS!!

In and of themselves, guns can be an absolute necessity, e.g hunting, exploring, travel in extreme or hostile areas in which animal life can prove a threat to one's own life. Other than that, guns have NO place in a civilized, developed society.

I am curious what would now Duda when see that USA and Trump openly supports idea that minimum 50% of Kosovo goes to Serbia. Sure, we Serbs would take it all and not only that but, one must admit its great achievement that we got USA support and attention. At first USA firmly defended Kosovo`s ``sovereignty``. Now USA give up from that.

I expect Duda, following USA stance, to show more love to Serbia now. Probably that is the true reason why Visegrad Group and Poland gave consent for Serbia`s use of Visegrad air space to transport weaponry from Russia.

It's not the guns that kill people it is mentally disturbed individuals that do.

If you were to take away their guns they would still find another means to kill scores of people as long as they have the intent to do so.

Rich Mazur
7 Aug 2019  #445

Other than that, guns have NO place in a civilized, developed society.

It's hard to debate anything with the religious and the polite. But I will try.

So, being neither, I have news for you: the animals are very civilized. They kill only when hungry or threatened.

The most uncivilized are the governments. To you, being Jewish, that should not be a revelation, but a self-evident truism. Here, it is the federal goons why we have the 2nd Amendment, not the ducks. The Euros, who suffered a lot more then we ever did, for some weird reason, are the gun-hating pacifists. As if the whole continent developed both a severe case of amnesia and the Stockholm syndrome at the same time. Yet, it never stops them from preaching good manners to us.

I guess, it's natural for the spineless to actually enjoy these maladies when on the military welfare of another nation where people, especially men, still have their testicles and their guns - both ready to be used as God meant them.

Almost forgot...And two middle fingers.

Hey don't bash all Europeans or put all Euros in the same basket!

My country is number 1 in Europe in terms of citizens per gun capita at 39 guns per every 100 people. We're second in the world only behind the US which has 120 guns per every 100 people.

Arms possession in Serbia is part of the tradition and folklore, and in rural parts of the country as Lyzko mentioned there is often a need & a necessity.
