America you seriously need to sort out your gun laws - Reporter shot dead on live TV

Defend your self against what Lyle?
Another guy with a gun right

Your point being? If the other guy has a gun does my NOT having a gun help me at all? It'll certainly help the other guy.

You'll figure it out sooner or later

Because you didn't have one......UNLESS you believe that banning guns will not only remove any and all firearms but also make people nicer and friendlier and less likely to oooooh I don't know attack another person who may not have the physical strength or ability to defend themselves. Or you believe the government via the police will "protect" citizens....well I can inform you that a large portion of people don't buy that shit for 1 single second!


Maybe you'll figure out sooner or later that there are guns, there will be guns, and there's no getting rid of them. I mean....you can certainly try but even in England there's still shootings, even in France there's still shootings and the best part is....you're sitting ducks!

The Police, the very people sworn to protect the citizens ran away from the Charlie Hebdo shooters!!!!

You want ME to put my faith in THOSE bastards? No thanks

I just don't see the legality being the issue, this is such a tired argument on here lol. Many of the worst areas/cities in America for gun violence have some of the most stringent laws, in places like New York, Detroit, Chicago, the process of getting a legal firearm is probably not unlike it is in the UK, here in Canada, or most anywhere else. If you want to suggest measures to stop the millions of illegal weapons being smuggled in and trafficked in the US then by all means, but at least acknowledge that's the bigger problem.

Apparently the shooter was also gay and was I guess upset at perceived slights due to that as well.

AND this shooting (so he said in his "manifesto") was not just revenge for slights against him but a retaliation for what that jackass did in South Carolina.


....guess we'll have to ban the #blacklivesmatter movement now what with this tragedy and all

Bit harsh to call the Charlie Hebdo coppers cowards. Whether or not they were armed it wouldn't have prevented the attack. Which is proven by the USA.

On average 300 people every day are shot in the States. The fact your coppers have guns is not a deterrent.

1. Didn't call them cowards, they didn't have guns!

2. Where are they shot? Are they shot in places where people own more legal guns or are these shootings happening in Chicago, Detroit, New York, where the gun laws are very strict?

[Fenster]

If those "bastards that ran away" had guns would it have prevented a terrorist attack?

[p4pking]

No, but if the cartoonists did it might not have been quite as bad. Fact!

Depends on how close they were to the scene. Could have saved 1 cop's life though. He was unarmed and executed in the street
