"US Gun Laws Draw Criticizm" Youve got to be kidding me...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070418/...ech_world_view

People are just nuts... to think that you need to be like australia and ban all handguns is retarded. Talk about missing the point completely...

Ignore the foreigners. Their opinion doesn't matter.

#@!@ on em. We don't enforce our laws in Europe, why the hell should they enforce theirs over here. If someone doesn't want me owning guns, then they can move to Europe....or DC for all I care.

The problem isn't guns, it's culture. In my grandparents generation EVERYONE owned a gun. Hell, you weren't considered a full fledged American unless you had a gun in your house and our country didnt suffer from debilitating social trauma like we have today.

We need an age and a culture that is more willing and able to hold people responsible for their actions rather than blaming their instruments.

Firearms are forbidden for private Chinese citizens.
So we need to be more Communist like I guess????????

Do these other countries have lower GUN CRIME rates. Yes of course they do. But their VIOLENT CRIME is through the roof. Burgluray (SP?) assualt, ect, ect. are way higher in other countries. Also the Police in the UK started to carry guns again after years of not even them having firearms. That should say something.

My personal oppinion, the day that handguns are taken out of citizens hands, is the day that American citizens rise up agianst the government.... It would NEVER happen. The government knows all too well that if they took ALL the Gun rights away, people would go nuts.

Yeah, and that prime minister guy in Britian must have never learned that America has a little thing called the 2nd ammendment, it was put in place when we kicked the crap out of them...

Wouldn't it be a real $hitter if we lost our gun rights over a non-native born moron?
