Gun Control

This is the European "America Sucks" thread.

Why would you even care? I guess it's true that everyone wants to deep down be an American.

How deep does this psychological mindfuck rabbit-hole of inane bullshit go?


Why is there no pro-activity for Zimbabwe gun control?

Seems poorly enforced.
 
Implying anyone in this thread gives a shit after 196 pages of the same circular discussion psychological mindfuck rabbit-hole of inane bullshit. Even the original thread author has been banned and this thread is still going. Talk about legacy.

Fixt.

The irony of Tim Poole is that he's politicizing student's protesting that they're being politicized at a vigil. Damn, it really is a mind fuck.

I'm sure "the violent gang of white supremacists dindu nuffin" Tim Pool has a very unexpected take on the subject.
 
A person shoot 12 toddlers or so, with his rifle. No one. Fucking no one, is going to think that. Do you know what the people do? They post on their twitter "I think I'll buy some stuff for my AR-15 today. That'll piss off a Liberal.". This is the kind of conversation we reached and you're doing absolutely nothing here to change the situation, but simply throwing more gasoline on a fire. That's what you're doing. And it's iritating. But do as you please. If you think this is the way to make changeh happen, so be it. But if that was the right way, we would have already seen change. But you could as well go and bang your head on a wall I suppose as try to change someone or what ever.

You don't have to be irritated. Just let that shiet go and exist in a more smooth society. In Europe you have to worry about this crap a lot less.

Just car bombing, acid attacks, mass shootings (just not in schools I will give you that), and good old car attacks. Never mind being I.D.'d to buy a butter knife meant for little kids (yeah you go U.K.). If people want to kill one another they will find a way to do it. There is no need to go on for 196 pages of your I hate America bullshit.

Canada also sucks.



Ukraine...Ukraine sucks on a whole different level. In a "not even funny"- level.
 
So the EU decided that all the happy little EU countries need better gun control, and Switzerland, not a member of the EU but of the Schengen Agreement, might now be forced to change their laws (and a fundamental part of their cultural heritage) to not get kicked out of the Schengen Agreement. Despite Switzerland not having any problems with gun violence.
Not even being not a member of the EU will save you from this clusterfuck these days.

They need to use their guns against the oppressive law makers.

Too bad the law makers are some faceless mooks in Brussels, and last time some german-speaking dudes marched into Belgium England threw a fit and bombed the shit out of them.
 
Three shootings in almost twenty years is pretty damn good. Considering swiss gun violence rates are better than basically every other european country except maybe Austria it stands to reason that Switzerland doesn't need better gun control laws because they know how to handle that shit responsibly. Of course, "personal responsibility" is not really an EU-thing, so there's that.
If gun control laws and gun violence would causally correlate here you'd actually make Switzerland worse if you force stricter laws.

Per capita Switzerland is only slightly better than Finland and Violent-Serbia so not exactly perfect.

Btw Finland has more guns per 100 people than Switzerland.
 
So national sovereignity and actually not being a EU-member is worth less than being only slightly better than Finland.
Seems fair, it should be every country's highest goal to be vastly better than Finland.

Eh, just pointing out the fact that the Swiss have a pretty high tendency to ventilate each other with bullets. Thus refuting your original point completely.
 
They don't have a "pretty high tendency to ventilate each other with bullets". It's lower than many other countries with stricter laws.
Either way, it is hilariously shitty that the EU can seemingly dictate laws in countries that are not even members of the EU. It'd be sad to see Switzerland leaving the Schengen Agreement, but knowing the Swiss, if they have to choose between easier border crossings and keeping their own culture, they're going with the latter.
