I'm not an American, but I can tell you that the Second Amendment is the single most regulated piece of legislation for the reason(s) you point out.The the right to arms doesn't mean a right to any type of weapon. Rocket launchers are banned.

"United states versus Miller" is a good starting point.

Hey, forget about not being able to buy an atomic bomb, the controversy in America is about not being able to buy a handgun, OK?

Re: What Anti-Gun Nuts Need to Learn
Bullshit. The controversy in your country is about how the second amendment to your anachronistic constitution should be interpreted by your courts. Handguns are not mentioned in this amendment. Why should the right to bear arms not include the right to bear an atomic bomb? I'm fucking sure I'd insist on such a right if I had to live in the midst of a bunch of dangerous imbeciles like you.bobevenson wrote:Hey, forget about not being able to buy an atomic bomb, the controversy in America is about not being able to buy a handgun, OK?

Oblivious Leo, you don't know shit about America. You live on that decadent little island under an oppressive socialist government, and you talk through your ass (oh, I'm sorry, arse -- why don't you learn American English instead of that British crap?)Obvious Leo wrote:Bullshit.

'American English' isn't English, it's just bad spelling and grammar i.e. yanklish.bobevenson wrote:Oblivious Leo, you don't know shit about America.

If I lived in the US I definitely wouldn't trust myself with a gun. No wonder you are always shooting each other.

Re: What Anti-Gun Nuts Need to Learn
Bob. As it happens I speak and write only in Australian English, which is yet another variation on the original which adds nuance and depth to this most expressive of all languages. ( You may need a dictionary to look up the meaning of the words "nuance" and "depth" since such abstract concepts seem to be foreign to your culture.)
Some examples of the Australian vernacular which could very precisely be applied to your good self.
"The lights are on but there's nobody home"
"Half a dozen stubbies short of a slab"
" The kangaroos busted through the fence and are running loose in the top paddock"

American English is the standard of the world, including international aviation, fool. And this week, an American will become the No. 1 golfer in the world after he wins the British Open while stupid Rory sits at home nursing his ankle injured in a soccer game.

You would be doing a great service to humanity if you were to donate yourself to science, Bob. Cognitive neuroscientists would love nothing better than to get somebody like you into an fMRI imager just to see why your neurons seem to fire in such a bizarre sequence. Your last demonstration of deductive logic is unquestionably unique.

Re: What Anti-Gun Nuts Need to Learn
That's pretty sad then, that the US is dragging the whole planet down to its single-digit IQ level, and I have no idea who 'Rory' is and I couldn't give a flying fuck about golf. Americans are so fat and lazy they can't even walk around a golf course-- they have to drive around it. Walking around the golf course is 99 per cent of the enjoyment. Stupid fat cnuts.bobevenson wrote:American English is the standard of the world, including international aviation, fool.

Re: What Anti-Gun Nuts Need to Learn
Why are you people so jealous of America? Is it because we're so advanced that we've landed on the moon, something you blokes can only dream about?
