More guns not the answer

This is from the 13 May 2009 Colorado Springs Gazette letters to the Editor section:

More guns not the answer
The Gazette’s our view recently defended vigorously the notion that University of Colorado students (and presumably all college students everywhere) should be allowed to carry concealed guns after receiving firearms training. This would end the campus massacres by deranged individuals, The Gazette seems to argue.
But now comes news of a deranged soldier brutally shooting ffve of his fellow soldiers at Camp Liberty in Iraq. This camp’s soldiers all carry loaded weapons and are fully trained in their use. So much for The Gazette’s guns-for-all position.
Compare the numbers of yearly gun deaths in the U.S. to the same number in nations with gun controls such as England, Japan, Canada, etc. Your jaw will drop.

"Compare the numbers of yearly gun deaths in the U.S. to the same number in nations with gun controls such as England, Japan, Canada, etc. Your jaw will drop."

Can someone post this data? I could really cork some lib cryholes with it.

Trained infantry solder against other soldiers. What? five deaths and subject captured!
In other shootings many more victims shot and killed by half trained nut job attacking unarmed victims.
I'll take the choice of having a firearm as a defence against psychopaths any day.

Then I ll argue... without those other soldiers with guns, the number of death could have been MANY MORE HIGHER. Good thing someone was able to stop him.
RIP to those five.

Bah bad choice of scenario!

EDIT Sorry earplug, you beat me to it :)

the shooting in question took place in a (are you libtards ready for this?) in a gun-free zone.

and you libtards always try and throw the "massacre" line out there too. you're so full of crap. Every place where CCW has been implemented, violent crimes have dropped and no where has there been your beloved massacres.

Australia and GB both regret their anti firearms laws as well as your beloved ''socialised health care" Japan has a bit of a problem with illegal firearms, but they have years of somewhat honorable upbringing vs your failed liberal pollicies over the past ~100 years.

take your "feel good" bs and shove them up your ass. Don't try and legislate our lives with your pussy attitudes. Live your life and let others live theirs. YOU ARE NOT SUPERIOR IN ANY WAY, unless being a moron is superior in some way!

Don't hold back. Next time let it out![Rant2]

Well just more of that liberal BS to come.

Libs make my brain hurt. It makes no sense what they do/say sometimes.

Sometimes??!

They have to sleep right? That makes sense to me. That is about it though.
