Drunks are problem everywhere in the world. So in places like UK there can be pub shootings, but in America, every bartender keeps a shotgun underneath the counter. Its so overwhelmingly known that he has guns under neath the counter that if Bar tender says now you gotta move your fanny out of the bar that means you gotta go. You will not argue with the bartender like what happened in Jessica Lal case.

So don’t blame Guns for a problem created by Gun Control.

Reports subsequent to the massacre revealed that the laws were so antiquated and inadequate, that firearms were doled out like freebies.

Not sure what reports are you talking about, but the weapons were purchased by the kid on the credit card of his mom. He sure didn’t qualify for those guns based on his own mental condition, but his mother did.
Secondly, honestly speaking I have never seen a pro-gun control American raising the points as you are doing. Nobody in America(pro- or anti- gun control) would ever say that handing out weapons in Zimbabwe is a bad thing. Its like saying that Jews should be given weapons in Nazi Germany because that will create “chaos”(please don’t use the word Anarchy as a synonym for chaos).
I saw the full coverage of Virginia Tech massacre on Television, university, radio, and newspapers. The debate on Gun Control which usually rages after every school shooting since Columbine High School Massacre, was practically non-existent. The reason was simple, the issue wasn’t easy access to guns but the psychotic nature of the VTech killer. The points you are raising are rarely heard in American gun debate horizon. They sound more like European analysis of VTech massacre.
In 12 years of my schooling in India I have seen/heard about 16 different stabbings among school/college kids. Sure its covered in the media but not publicized like a Gun shooting usually is.

Lemme ask you a hypothetical ethical question.
Lets say you have the option to arm the Jewish people in Europe, arming them simply means that now they will fight back, and kill people. This means more people will die.
So would you arm the Jewish people of Nazi Germany if
1) Not arming them means total 6 million of Jews will die in gas chambers
2) Arming them means total 12 million people will die(including the 6 million Jews who will fight to death, and 6 million Nazis)

My question is what will you choose from the above two options?

Oh, by the way, I blogrolled ya. You write well.

i would trust a 5000 yr civilization like india than the maturity of a nation created out the plunder and loot of native americans.

“Indian man on an average is more insecure due to greater hunger, poverty and other factors. Such people are very susciptible to shoot in rage.” . heh ,thats why indian marriages survive longer?. what an apologist for the white skin

@ brown phantom

The villages which I am talking about, where there is not even a police station, people are using guns to protect themselves. These villages are in india.
That is, in situation of weak enforcement of rules and laws, only GUNS helps against criminals. The noticeable thing is, these villagers even never get any proper gun-education, still theres almost no accidents or upbrust because of private guns being used for safety and self-defense.
Anyways, i can fathom your fear of guns, and the fact that you have no rational point against gun-rights.

@ Sukrit
Well not only in common crimes like rapes and murders, if guns are allowed, many major crimes like terrorist attacks can be handled without letting the terrorists cause too much disaster. It will surely decrease number of causalities in any such attacks (like the Mumbai and other cities faced last year). While calling police may take time, and even police will take its time to come to the crime scene, the citizens may protect themselves against such terrorist by themselves.

It’s even more important that Indians have access to guns for self-defence, given the useless and corrupt police. Just think of how many murders, assaults or rapes could have been prevented if the victims had been able to defend themselves.

Oh no, Indians cannot be trusted with Guns. Over the generations of genetic mutations, Indians now lack the gene which makes them more responsible with guns.

Imagine the teacher who screams at her students everyday, now imagine if she had a gun in her hand, she would shoot all her students who do not finish their homework. Terrible idea!

P.S. I’m reserving the space on my blogroll for American anti-war websites and a couple of Australian ones (which is where I currently live). I don’t want to add too many links, however I will definitely keep an eye on your site and point traffic your way whenever possible.
