Called the police immediately... called the ambulance 15 minutes later..

I agree.

Am I the only one who is actually quite amused by this?

It looks to me like your politics-fest scared off the OP. Why all the hate?

Tasers are prohibited under the firearm act in england. How about pepper spray, you ask? Illegal too. See, they don't want to just take guns away; they want you completely defenseless. Don't believe me- look it up.

I hope you find out the hard way that you're wrong.

Word.

Yeah, that's right. Not even pussies need guns 'for protection'.

THANKS for ruining that.

You're welcome! *Dabs*

Pitiful.

Alrighty then. *ATOMIC DAB*

I may have mis-worded my comment. Fair enough response, though.

I though you ment the dab was pitiful, so I improved. ATOMIC DAB!!!

Back for more, eh?

Besides, learning self defense let alone a Martial arts takes at least a few months ( basic S-D) to many years

In the US it's better to kill whoever you shoot so they don't sue you. Thanks criminal sympathizers (low income liberals).

Wait why only liberals tho? I mean, technically ANYBODY could be criminal sympathizers, not just liberals...

True, but most are liberals because they want the welfare and benefits that come with having democrats in power.

Ah, i see... *strokes chin thoughtfully*

This is why crossbows and bows & arrows are much better.

First off, bullshit. Second, England is the reason America has the right to bear arms so that we don't end up like them.

What? They're not some kind of fascist, authoritarian government. they have plenty of elected officials, who I daresay they trust more than we do OUR politicians.

First of all, it's just a f**king joke. Second, may I ask, what's wrong with England? And what do you mean by 'so that you don't end up like us'? Last time I checked, everything was good in MY hood! Maybe it's because none of us own a tool USED FOR KILLING PEOPLE, FOR F**K'S SAKE. Look at those statistics. Look at those sexy statistics. Now tell me: would you rather end up like US, or would you rather end up like YOU.

What's wrong with England?
Too much rain
Socialized medicine
Teeth
Y'all talk funny
You're a peein
Enslaved half the planet
English cuisine
Scotch cuisine

Oh yeah?

'too much rain' = fertile land

'socialized medicine' = free healthcare for all

'teeth' = beautiful, white teeth which have not been ruined by a candy-soaked, diabetic American diet.

YOU talk funny. British English came before American English, therefore, British English was the original language, therefore, YOU talk funny.

'enslaved half the planet' = because we had the most powerful empire, maybe?

English cuisine is f**king delicious.

Scotch cuisine is f**king delicious.

It's an acquired taste. Wankers like you wouldn't understand.

Wow, add "Can't take a f**king joke" to the list!

Wow, add 'Can't take a f**king insult like a man's to the list!

I didn't say anything was "wrong" with England, tool. I said that England is the reason we have the right to bear arms- it was the 2nd Amendment due to the fact that we had just fought off England and was the individuals and the individual states means to guard against a tyrannical government. Anti-federalists wanted to be sure that states had their own power and that the federal government couldn't come in and do the same things that England tried to do which sparked the break from England in the first place.

The US. Crime in the US is still on the fall, can the UK say that? Can you say that your crime rate is almost 50% below it's peak from over 25 years ago? I suggest you stay in England and I'll stay in the US.

You don't know history, the Act of Union was 1707, so it was Britain that the British subjects were fighting in a civil war, not just England.

As for violent crime it is much higher in the US than the UK and we don't have to wake up regularly, turn on the news and hear about dead kids with bullet holes all over our schools

You are correct. Britain vs England is the proper terminology. You're right, we're more violent than you too but our overall crime rate is lower, addiction to opiates is lower (quite frankly that one shocked me- I'd have thought we cornered the market on that one), feeling of safety is higher...here: http://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/United-Kingdom/United-States/Crime I wish they had a state for 'Tide Pod' consumption as a food, but I'm betting we're the ONLY one on that list. Anyway, it's been a fun back and forth, but I'm spending too much time in this thread and missing out on a lot of memes. Cheers!

No, I can't say that my crime rate is almost 50% below it's peak. You know why? Because your crime rates are so high, that there's nowhere else to go, but down! The UK crime rate is quite low, and if it went any lower, we would be living in a utopia!

If you believe that, good for you. Since yours is rising, you're going the wrong direction though. ;)

Hey, I like where I live and You like where YOU live...so YOU stay where you like living and I'LL stay where I like living! How about we drink to that? Not American beer though...you DEFINITELY have us beat there!

Bottoms up!

*Drinks English beer*

oh, shit, that guy has a gun! Duck!

*Guy with gun shoots people*

watch out!

*You get shot*

NOOOOO!!!!!!

*I proceed to beat the living shit out of the gun guy with a baseball bat, which is totally legal in England*

Sorry! I don't really mean it! ;)

You fail to realize that I am a legal concealed carry holder and responsible gun owner myself with a military background who is comfortable with guns and works with and around them all of the time. While you're hiding under a table, I'll protect us both! :) What is someone with a gun doing in a bar in the UK anyway if you don't have gun crime?

See, the problem isn't 'guns'. There are far more illegal firearms on the streets than there are legal and taking away the legal ones will simply leave the only guns in the hands of criminals. As a matter of fact, the vast majority of gun crime is committed with illegal guns, but they don't showcase those as they disprove their point.

We need more properly trained and responsible people carrying them and yes, I am all for not only requiring stringent background checks and a requirement for training in order to possess any firearm and specifically higher requirements for regular training and proficiency testing for concealed carry holders like myself. I shoot often and enjoy shooting, so telling me I have to shoot isn't going to upset me. The ones that will complain are the ones that wouldn't be responsible without it.

If you'll notice, these people never target an area that there is a high possibility for someone to be legally armed there. Since those of us who are law abiding citizens actually follow the rules, only those who don't care about them have the power in these gun free zones.

I'm sorry, but I'm not a stalker, so I wouldn't know that you're such an expert on guns. And did I not say that I will beat the living shit out of the gunman with a perfectly legal baseball bat? I visited America especially for our special toast!

I agree with you on the fact that 'guns' are not the problem. People kill people WITH guns, but guns do not kill people.

(To tell you the truth, I didn't know that most of the gun crimes are illegal. And that it mostly happens in places with less guns. I can really see your point here! ;) )

I hate to admit it but: YOU'RE RIGHT. But I still can't help wondering about the citizens using their guns to kill other citizens. What if a man shot mother man for stealing his girlfriend, or something? I'm still not cool with guns, but maybe tasers would work? Give all the citizens tasers! That sounds like a brilliant idea!
