An Aussie view on US gun Culture

GaryKelly · Guru

Had the volume turned up to max but it was still too low to hear it properly. Pity.

My experience of US gun culture is yanks don,t argue and come to the biff like aussies, but pull out guns and shoot at each other. Cheap , easy to get firearms don,t help.Last time I was there, you could buy a .25 revolver for $20.Pretty sad, really. Bill

US gun violence is almost always black and Hispanic, involves drugs and gangs, and like the offenders, the victims are also black and Hispanic.

Maybe aspiring funnymen could check facts first. Because doing so could give rise to some very worrying questions about multicultural communities and the social re-engineering that is the vogue in the West. That is not pouring cold water on immigration policies but the red flags are there, and in Europe too.

Apart from that, many don't find 'comedians' who rely on gutter language eg 'C Bombs' very funny at all.

Well John if we had a "like" button i would press it on your comments.

smile smile Yep, !!! agree with what Cloak said, ?? They are among us, they are Fanatical, they are armed,, and '' WE ARE NOT'' ?? pretty hard to protect your family in that type of situation, Rocks, against Bullets. will result in a very bad outcome.

20 Years ago if you asked me ' do I need to have a Firearm at Home, ?? I would have said No Way, ?? What for ??

But with the way we are letting SOME people come into Australia with no intentions of ever becoming an Australian, ?? and would rise up to destroy us if called upon by their Leaders, -- And especially after spending 3 months in Europe, and seeing the damage and fear, that is now in those country's because of the shear volume of people that have flooded into country;s like Germany, France, and Italy, and they are NOT There to ''Intergrate' --

Trouble IS coming, ??? those who have invaded Are Armed, I think the Locals should also be armed, as the fight will not be overseas, ?? It will be in OUR Suburban Streets, -- THEY WILL NOT WIN ?? but they will cause much Angst, Pain, and Suffering, hmm

Well said Dazren, I agree completely. smile

Gday...

I am not very well-informed on this topic. However, I think the majority of the people to which you are referring use machetes, knives, swords and explosives.

And they don't necessarily confront their target - too stealthy (cowardly?) and prefer the weapon of surprise.

The worst thing is that even without "them" doing anything, they are neutralising the "free world" with their THREAT of terror. It is working - we walk around in fear and they just keep living in their own ways - moving around freely.

Don't know solutions - or even if the fears will be realised. Mr Morrison and Mr Rabbit will save us all - just ask em.

Cheers - John

I would be very happy, honoured, to have people with firearms licences in the camp and as neighbours.

With them I can be sure that they definitely are the identities on their licence and that they are responsible, reputable citizens cleared by police and for whom other independent citizens of good character have been willing and able to formally warrant their good name and character through close association and knowledge over many years.

John Howard did thousands of good, respectable, law-abiding Australian citizens a very cruel and lasting disservice by stereotyping them as members of an irresponsible and wanton 'gun culture' (which Howard deliberately never defined). These fine citizens are in fact the very opposite of the grubs who break laws and threaten the community, and whose criminal behaviour and illegal weapons were barely if at all affected by Howard's hugely expensive 'initiatives'.

Laws do not apply to outlaws, that's why they are outlaws!

What a shame!
