    Well here in the States if you have the right permit I believe you could carry a concealed handgun, at least here in Florida.

    Yeah, so if you're being mugged, at least they have something to kill you with.

    We don't walk down the streets with guns here in England, and we generally don't get mugged. (Except if you live in Liverpool, but then you're asking for it)
    People in Liverpool still wear shell suits, so deserve to be shot

    You don't need a gun to defend yourself.

    Pepper spray does the trick.

    If some guy comes up behind you in a dark alley and points a gun at your head, no amount of fire power in the world would do all that much to help ypu protect your self.

    First of all can you back up the argument that most people getting killed by illegal guns? I never seen any numbers that prove that. Second . The numbers I have seen says that you are most likely to get killed by a legal gun by someone you know.

    Do they, do they really?
    Thats what the govement tells you. But it's not true, the goverment dosen't want to pay out pensions so they kill us off and blame it on natural causes.
