I distinctly remember pointing out repeatedly on here the barefaced lies, distortions and false propaganda that led to the Iraq war. The same war loving right wing sycophants who are still trying to justify the unjustifiable are still doing so.
Remember Scott Ritter, the American former head of the of the weapons inspectors who at the time clearly said that Iraq had no WMD?
The Iraq war was and continues to be another classic example of the US behaving like a spoilt 10 year old with a machine gun.
If you had any idea at all about history you wouldnt try and defend the indefensible. You are the one following the pop narrative of Fox news man. Any sane person knows this was a war purely for oil and nothing to do with US security.
The idiotic concept of gun ownership being a human right is fortunately confined to violence crazed americans. I am so grateful I live in a country where guns are never seen in public or needed. Your freedom loving gun nuts are just overcompensating for their ahem "inadequacies" .
Yawn, Oh oh CTS is on his anti Iran hobby horse. If were not going to have theocracy with nukes lets start with Israel and the US. Iran has not started one war in 70 years!
Your problem is denial of reality Milton, or perhaps incredibly poor reading comprehension. Let me put it simply, you have not put forward one fact that could be used to debate the science. Why because there are none, zero. Sill you try and say there is a debate, but never present anything that factually contradicts AGW. It seems you are one of those "The facts whilst interesting are irrelevant" types.
Are you living in the same Australia as I am? Here is one simple plain undeniable dose of realty for you. Number of gun massacres in Australia in 20 years before the gun ban-18. Since the gun ban zero. None. Not one. It seems gun advocates have the same level of cognitive dissonance world wide. And gun control advocates use dodgy stats-give me a break!
Well put AC, pity Americans will never get it. Their love a violence, and belief in violence to solve problems is endemic. Just watch a Us cop drama, you can bet there will be at least 6 people shot and an explosion during the intro credits for goodness sake. It is utterly pointless trying to reason with them. Plain clear statistics prove the case beyond all doubt, but all they will do is pick a very rare incidence in other countries and cry shrilly " It doesnt make any difference".
And neither does spelling apparently. Child killing lobby seems a fair description to me. Still the rest of the world now gets Americans are totally out of touch with reality when it comes to guns. We go about our daily lives never once feeling the need to have a gun because they are almost never seen in our societies, and shake our heads in sadness every time there is yet another mass killing in the US, wondering if you will ever get it. Getting rid of the guns was the best thing our government ever did. It WORKED bitches, and all the bullshit in the world will not change that.
The gun massacre rate in.au went from 13 in 20 years to zero. Simple plain fact. We havent had a massacre since. That is reality not the fantasy that US gun nuts religiously believe.
You are really out of touch with reality Strat. Here is a simple fact, in Australia in the 20 years before we saw the light and got rid of a lot of the guns there were 13 gun massacres. Since then none. Zero. Even rabid right wing nutjobs like you should understand simple math.
Dont worry Nic its law in other countries, as we well know Americans do not know most countries exist until they declare war on them. Listen man when your'e in a hole its a good idea to stop digging. Every single "point" you have tried to make has been discredited. That's what happens when you try to defend the indefensible.
Let me assure that no one prefers the US rules, thats why we dont have 20-30 dead people every few months due to sane gun control for a start. And we have good universal health care, social security etc.
Truth hurts eh? No fantasy here the evidence is right in the summary. Your gun murder rate is huge, and violence is a national pastime it seems. Poor effort try again and do better.

The NRA is just a lobby group....and one which represents a huge cross section of overcompensating nut jobs.
FTFY
Ah the US approach, solve your problems with a gun. How delightfully typical.

Nah bigoted, you cherry pick the few bad apples and use them to paint every muslim as evil.
Not in civilised countries, this is a US phenomena mainly. Well runcountries dont allow employers to trample over people.
I think you are paranoid, poor chap.
Spot on man! The endemic racism of the bogans in Aust is everywhere.
This is why civilised countries dont have elections for judges and prosecutors.
Only an American would say 3 weapons is not an arsenal. That particular kind of stupidity is an American characteristic.

Surely the fact that shooting took place is evidence they were not gun free zones. Gawd. gun nuts have so little connection with reality.

You are really in total denial of reality mode today.

Hey man shooting people is a right and popular pastime in the US!
Never addressed one point because they are all true, thanks for playing. No misconceptions simple fact, look it up the facts are readily available
