If there wasn't a gun there odds are it would have resulted in only a fist fight, before everyone cooled off. Guns and anger are a deadly combination

Again, gun culture. We have it; most of the world does not. And with the immature rants of little boys who never grew out of playing GI Joe running around that won't change any time soon.
Everybody has criminals.
I don't know what you mean by "gun culture".
I have over 50 firearms and I use them all in a legal manner. Some Obama voting shithead in ghetto Chicago probably only has one stolen cheap handgun and he uses it for a crime.
It a culture of crime, not a gun culture.
"Gun culture" means a value system where never-grew-up GI Joe boys run around posting threads about the "right to bear arms" as if it's a baby's pacifier. "Gun culture" means the hairtrigger society where any argument can be settled by brute force. "Gun culture" means an environment where you can't flip through a TV channel lineup without seeing 18 people shot in two minutes. "Gun culture" means the idea of firearms being marketed to children as soon as they can walk, and some of them never grow up. "Gun culture" means an endless diarrhea of video games (successor to comic books) based on hunting down a human subspecies and blowing them away in fantasy. "Gun culture" means school students, moviegoers, church congregations, anyone anywhere, put at risk of a sniper acting out that fantasy, after which we note it's nothing unusual.
"Gun culture" is a value system. One where blowing things away is more important than Life. And it's by definition fucked up.
When your value system is blowing things away, then that value will be shared among criminals and cops. There's no way it can't be.
What the fuck do you think the function of a gun is? To play music? To make an ice cream sandwich?
The function of a gun is to save the life of the user.....and in the United States that typically means that in 54% of times a gun is used to stop or prevent a violent criminal attack and save lives, the gun isn't even fired....
Again, that's absolute bullshit. A gun fires a projectile at high speed. It's function is to penetrate. Penetration has nothing to do with "defense" -- it's offense. Defense involves reaction to something already present. You're entitled to your opinion but not to your own dictionary.
And again, undocumented ipse dixit stats for the sake of composition fallacies make absolutely no point.
The purpose of a gun is to save the life of the user...how it functions is irrelevant to the fact that it's purpose is to save a life.......and in many cases it doesn't even need to be fired to fulfill that purpose....
Jesus Christ, enough with the propaganda bullshit, will ya? You're a fucking idiot. Every time you talk, you are saying less than nothing. Your words are like negative numbers....they create a positive in the opposite direction. Those of us who are fiercely supportive of gun rights do not need your stupidity to argue our case. Because you're such a fucking retard, you're really just making their case easier.
A firearm is a tool, much like a match. The purpose of a match is to start fires. Sure, the reason the owner might want to start a fire might be to get a campfire roaring and cook the evening's dinner. The purpose of a gun is to destroy things. The owner's interest in destruction might be self defense. But the purpose of the gun is destruction.
Saying that the purpose of a gun is to save the owner's life is like saying that a match is a nutritional aide.
Well, fucking moron.....since you just come on here to attack me and not actually debate the anti gunners fuck you again....stupid fuck....how about doing some leg work in these debates instead of being like most clueless assholes and not adding to the debate...but simply criticizing me.....moron, twit and fuck head....
Have a nice day...
A guns purpose is to preserve the life of the user....how it achieves that is secondary to it's actual purpose....and in the context of actual self defense, it can achieve that purpose often without firing a shot........
In fact.....guns on the hips of police preserve order even though 99% of them will never leave their holsters.......dittos the U.S. military.........of all the service members, a gun does not need to be fired to achieve the preservation of the life of it's user........
When I went to visit Ireland I noticed the police do not carry guns. During that trip I read an article in a Limerick paper noting with alarm that a murder had been committed, and it was already the 34th murder that year.
For the entire country. And this was in August. Some of our cities, let alone the entire country, can hit that mark in a month.
Again, cultural contrast. Ireland is no stranger to violence but it isn't swimming in gun fetishism.
Again....criminal culture....very different in Ireland vs. detroit, chicago, New York.......

Shutting down your stupid bullshit is the single most worthy contribution anyone could make to this thread at this point.

There's nothing "Democrat" about that post
There is the "democrat" thing that Detroit has been run by democrats for decades......
More abject horseshit. ALL cities are run by Democrats, and guess what -- they don't get to expound on political philosophies in City Hall. They get to decide which day the trash is picked up and when the snowplows run. Your desperate deflection attempt is absurd.
If there wasn't a gun there odds are it would have resulted in only a fist fight, before everyone cooled off. Guns and anger are a deadly combination

You are a moron......democrats demonize business owners and hate them and see them as just sources of money...so they tax them, fine them and assess fees to the point where only large companies can exist in their cities, meaning fewer jobs......the democrats don't care about educating children...especially minority children because of they did then education rates in these inner cities would be greater than 50 % and the children who graduated could actually read and do math...instead, the democrats support their allies in the education wing of the democrat party...the teachers unions....who fight every educational reform there is....but contribute vast sums of money to their allies in the political wing of the democrat party.....
then you have the police...hated by the democrats trapped in democrat controlled inner cities...why....because the police are not there to help keep them safe, but to keep their generational poverty and crime from spilling over into the rich democrat areas of these cities....and the rich democrats....don't care about those poor people...except for Election Day.....so instead of providing enough police to keep them safe..they spend tax money on every thing except for the police...as Chicago and Milwaukee have done...and then they under staff the police, under fund the police, and finally undermine the police....thank you mayor deblasio...
and the democrat policies revealed here create the soldiers for gangs and drug cartels, and all the independent, violent criminals who will then use guns for crime and murder....
So yes you stupid fool.....democrat governing policies do effect a city....moron...
Canuckistan was founded by cowards running from the American revolution..the torie losers have always been content to be ruled by royalty....hell, they can't even control the frogs in Quebec.But the secret to the canucks low crime rate and attendant lower need for firearms is their lack of lawless blacks rampaging through their society. American before integration was the same way....nobody locked their doors or cars. Kids played unattended until dark, folks could walk the streets and parks at night without fear. Canuckistan saw what happened to the US and wants no part of it.
Ummm... Canada was founded in 1867. I think that's a bit after the Revolution.
And no, it's got nothing to do with "blacks". Canada has crime like anywhere else. What it does not have is a gun fetish culture.

If they don't have a gun culture then why did the people of Canada tell the stupid government to shove it where the sun don't shine when the government tried to impose registration of firearms? That was one of the best examples of mass civil disobedience in history.
And so we need to restrict the rights of the people in general because sommeone might get angry?If there wasn't a gun there odds are it would have resulted in only a fist fight, before everyone cooled off. Guns and anger are a deadly combination

What the fuck does that have to do with gun culture?
That's a privacy issue. Canada's going through some PATRIOT Act - like controversy right now, and privacy versus government power is a front and center issue. That ain't a gun fetish.
And btw it was not "the people" who put down the effort (which was in Québec, not the entire country) but the Canadian Supreme Court. And it wasn't "imposing registration of firearms" -- the issue was whether or not the province could destroy its records that it already had. Nice try but way the fuck off in terms of accuracy.

You are confused. The portion of the Canadian Firearms Act that required registration was passed in 1993, long before 911 and the Patriot Act in the US. Don't make things up. It only makes you look like a fool when you post.
Firearm confiscation/registration etc is always presented as being for public safety someway or another. Thank goodness the Canadians didn't let their filthy ass government take away their firearms under the bogus guise of anti terrorism or anything else.
The stupid government passed the law but the Canadians said "hell no we ain't gonna do it". They didn't want their government maintaining a register on gun owners. Good for them.
If the Canadians didn't have a gun culture similar to the US then they wouldn't have given a crap about registering their firearms. Europeans don't care. Americans, New Zealanders and Canadians, among a few others, do. It was never a privacy issue. It was a right to keep and bear arms issue.

Look dood, I get news from Canada literally every day. This is the controversy I refer to. It's got nothing to do with 9/11. And it IS in the public discourse right now.
Further, here's the Québec story:
Supreme Court rules against Quebec and allows end to gun-registry data
MONTREAL—The country’s top court awarded a huge victory for Prime Minister Stephen Harper over the province of Quebec with its decision allowing it to scrap the remnants of the long-disputed gun registry. [which was created in 1998]THAT is what it's about.
... The Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision ruled Quebec has no legal right to the information on long-gun owners that was collected and maintained by Ottawa and that it was within the federal government’s right to unilaterally destroy the information.
Don't sit here and try to bullshit me. I already told you I know better.

The Canadians resisted the filthy ass government keeping a registry on their firearms. It was mass civil disobedience. The same kind of disobedience that you would see in the US if the filthy ass government tried to do the same. That is a gun culture. You can deny it all you want but that is what happen.
The Court ruling was good but had nothing to do with the fact that Canadians simply did not register the weapons like the filthy government told them to do.
