Hi (again) INDIVIDUAL...

Not a bad idea at all. In Martin BRYANT'S case he's made several attempts at suicide; all to do with attention seeking. His problem is, nobody actually cares a fig, about the man, so he can do what he likes. Don't be surprised to hear he was successful one day, and that'll make everyone happy.

The more I think of it, the more I agree with you; give them all a cyanid capsule, only after they've served a minimum sentence or 20 years of a life sentence, and they can do what it is they wish to do? Your suggestion has definite merit INDIVIDUAL! Thanks mate.

I favour concentrating on prevention, and proper care for the victims, such as the families who are left behind to live with their grief for the years to come. Retribution on the perpetrators is of cold comfort to those who really suffer.

//more people have been saved by someone having a gun than people have been killed by a crazy with a gun.//

An illogical argument. If there were no guns, then the crazy would not have a gun to shoot people with in the first place. Then no others without guns would be required to prevent a crazy without a gun shooting anyone. Simply put there would be no shooting of anyone.

individual, to watch some pathetic human being do himself in, is only suggested by you to satisfy some perverted pleasure of yours, no thought for the victims at all. No doubt you pulled the wings of flies when you were a kid, for the same reason.

Paul,

"An illogical argument. If there were no guns, then the crazy would not have a gun to shoot people with in the first place. Then no others without guns would be required to prevent a crazy without a gun shooting anyone. Simply put there would be no shooting of anyone.".

An illogical argument, when there were no guns there were swords and those without a sword were at the mercy of those with swords.

If we could abolish all guns tomorrow then the sword would hold sway again.

Personally I would feel much safer around gun owners than antifa and Hilary dummy spitters who often hide behind masks while bashing anyone who disagrees with Marxism.

you pulled the wings of flies when you were a kid,
Paul1405,
Funny you mention that because that was one of the things that I could never fathom why kids did that sort of thing. It always did & still grates me when people get stuck into animals & torture them. I know plenty such sickos who under the pretence of ridding the bush of vermin such as wild pigs, go ape in the bush to get satisfaction for their perversion. I feel the same about the thousands of people leaving fish flapping on the jetty until they die. Or those sport fishing types who get their kicks out of hooking those beautiful creatures for fun. Just go to one of those fishing competitions & see for yourself what I mean. Or go & see sea turtles lying on their backs tied to a stake in the blazing sun for several days.
If people don't learn from kindness extended to them then we have not alternative but to be unforgiving. On the other hand you could always offer to do the work if you think you have better ways. Btw, how did you go in those refugee children camps we suggested you should visit & do your good ?

Foxy - You obviously do not understand the statistic because your link proves that.

Comparing gun statistics in other countries is irrelevant.

In simple English what it clearly showed was that having people around with a gun prevented numerically more people being killed than the numerically number killed by crazies with guns.

If those good people with guns had been unable to have them the rate of people killed by crazies would be substantially higher.
