Law / Weapons laws in Poland. Carrying a concealed handgun? [918]

I'll take your trolling bait Ms. Manners.

However I think it is valid to comment as the American members of this forum seem to think that Poles should be armed.

I am sure glad that doesn't include Sig or me as Americans.

Probably best to keep the gun laws in place that Poland and the rest of the E.U. currently have.

I think it is a valid comment that I have repeated a dozen times that HUGE AMERICA has small areas of gun violence.
Kind of like the NO GO ZONES in violent Europe.
To paint America with such a broad brush of being uncivilized only shows the ignorance of a very bias individual with hate issues.

Like I said, smoking weed and getting behind the wheel is the same thing as drinking alcohol and getting behind the wheel
Same fines, same jail/prison time, same loss of driving license.
Fatal crashes involving marijuana use tripled during the previous decade, fueling some of the overall increase in drugged-driving traffic deaths, researchers from Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health report.

I cant think of any occurrence where someone was too high on marajuana and caused an accident.

Google it and you may surprise yourself.
In 2009 one in three drivers involved in fatal car crashes tested positive for drugs and marijuana was the number one drug.
I would imagine those statistics of gone up over the last ten years.

The more I think about it.........it's probably best Poland does not allow guns.
The high rate of aggressive spouse abuse, animal abuse and alcohol abuse is not a good combination with a gun available.
You see how unruly people act before, during and after the football games.
Probably best to keep the gun laws in place that Poland and the rest of the E.U. currently have.

You certainly don't see toddlers shooting people accidentally in any civilized country in the world other than America.

Family pets cause more deaths than do toddlers shooting people in America.
Should we do away with family pets too ?

Yes, they are called the Democratic States (the Left with no common sense) and the Republican States (the Right that have to much common sense).

1790 laws are what America was founded on and has worked great for the last 225 years to give it's citizens the most freedoms of any country in the world not to mention the greatest and most powerful country in the world.

Why would we want to change that just for the minority of gun grabbers and jealous foreigners ?

- anybody else got other ideas?

Yes, ban the violent video games that kill people.
Start sterilizing single mothers on welfare after their second child.
A very high percentage of gun crimes are committed by no fathers in the family.
For the students that have no manners and no desire to learn take them out of the public schools and put them in boot camps until they learn how to say, yes sir and no sir and have learned how to read and write while earning their room and board.

Anyone caught with a gun in the commission of a crime shoot them on the spot as you have no civil rights at that point.

Anyone caught with a gun dealing hard drugs get an automatic twenty years in prison.
Laws like this would have no bearing on law abiding private gun owners.
That is how I would start as the vice president to you as our new Irish president Atch.

I was never in favor for the AR-15 and other assault rifles for the public sector, these weapons are for the military.

Thats a big of an exagerration your lungs won't 'pop'

That is just their sense of humor put into an expression.
I quit when driving a vehicle while smoking marihuana laws changed years ago.
It is the same fine for being caught driving high on weed as it is for drink driving.
And if you are in a car accident while driving stoned on pot you will be doing some serious jail time.
I am one that firmly believes if you can't do the time, don't to the crime.
I am way to old to be sitting in the pokey for copping a buzz on a little weed.

GG4 has flooded the market here lately.

That's the most popular where I live too.
The neighbor kids were making keefer out of some and I ask them "why" since the GG4 was so potent already.
They said that you don't smoke the keefer straight or you would pop your lung and to just sprinkle it on a spliff.
I know I don't miss the stuff.

Notice how different the graduation rates are between whites overall and even hispanics compared to blacks.

In Detroit on 23% of Blacks graduate from high school.
Did you know that obama implemented government programs in the Chicago schools (paid for by our government) NOT to call the police on minority students that commit misdemeanor crimes like bringing a knife to school ?

It's true and the Florida school where the shootings took place had this same program there.
It was created to balance out the ratio of between Whites vs. Blacks and Latino's arrests and crimes since it was so disproportional.
Let's put the blame where it belongs and quit blaming the NRA.

Their only answer is "more guns"

Well of course, eventually all the bad guys will end up being shot and killed just like back in the old west with Billie the Kid to Bonnie & Clyde to Bin Laden.

Seems to be working pretty good so far.

I for one prefer a tolerant nation that continues to be welcoming to immigrants

Understandable since you are a migrant yourself. (Who you trying to get in from Aussie ?)

if you ever manage to cross your county line and travel a bit, you will find out.

What would you, as an American citizen suggest as a starting point?

Holding the police accountable for their unjustified shootings to start.
Let the citizens decide weather it was justified, not some police panel that ALWAYS rules in the police favor even if the shooting is captured on video and the cop is guilty as sin.

That's where I would start.

Atch the people you/we are talking about don't know how to read or write, can't speak proper English, have never had a legal job, have been raised by a single mother on welfare, been in and out of jail half dozen times for high court misdemeanors, have been robbed, have been beat, use illegal drugs and the most expensive thing they own is their cell phone.

Their mothers rake in about $75,000 a year on welfare by pumping out kids that she can't afford.
Starting to get the picture of what we are dealing with here ?

Now, I have repeatedly ask this question because I am seriously ignorant on the subject.
How does the mental health system work in Europe ?
What does the EU do with mentally ill people that are not responsible for themselves ?
The U.S. has closed the doors to our mental institutions and turned these people out on the streets.
They then end up in prison, homeless on the streets or dead.
How does Europe handle these people ?
ALL of the mass shooters have been mentally ill.

Not really.

Yes really.
While the funding is being cut.......well, here is the rest of your sensationalized story.
The president's budget fully funds the National Instant Criminal Background Check System.
The decrease in proposed funding is designed to match the level of spending requested by states that qualify for the grants.

The 2019 President's Budget proposes to reduce funding for this program because the number of states eligible for NICS Act Record Improvement Program funding is not expected to increase and the $10.0 million request is sufficient to sustain the existing level of activity under this program.

Noting that the government only funded the states that were eligible and that some states (the Blue ones) have failed to produce required compliance plans related to reporting mental health records.

President Trump doesn't spend "other peoples money" foolishly like the Dems do by just keep throwing money at a problem to fix it.

- bringing in money for the department. And thats what it all cones down

And may I add to that........the police would rather have soft none aggressive prisoners then hard core aggressive to take care of once they get sentenced.

The soft none aggressive want out so they pay their fines, court costs, over sight fees, humiliation classes.
The system got their money so NEXT>
They don't want the hard core criminals that have no intention of paying their fines or court costs and could care how long they are locked up with free t.v., weight rooms, free laundry, three square's a day and free health care.

The system loses money on those kind.
Adrain is TOTALLY CORRECT, "it is all about money and not justice."
That's why they don't legalize marijuana.....they make more money off non violent offenders then they would if they legalized it.

Four armed officers and not a single one of them could stop or even attempted to stop the shooter, LOL!

Knowing your character delph.......you would have done the same thing, ran and hid like you did when all Adrain wanted to do is buy you a cup of coffee.

I just can't picture you going face to face with a crazy person with a AR-15 after they have already killed.

And you're proud of the fact that your cops can't even enforce the law while gorging themselves on donuts and coffee?

Look who is talking Tubby, the only thing you have conquered in his life is a triple bacon cheese burger with extra cheesy fries and a 24oz. Pepsi.

But burglary is a non violent crime, no weapons involved.

And the difference is that here in the U.S. almost every home owner has a gun and the burglars know that plus the home owner here in America has ever legal right to shoot and kill a burglar if caught inside someone's home.

That is the difference between America laws and the Eurp laws.

If you know you have no gun but may have to disarm somebody,

You mean like somebody with an AR-15 with a magazine capacity of thirty rounds with another magazine tapped to the one in the weapon.....good luck.

Nowadays there are armed criminal gangs

My point made, once guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.
No offence Atch but you are not in touch with reality on the gun issue in America no matter how big the Irish cops balls are.

The bad guy in the U.S. would say to the cop, "why did you bring your baton to a gun fight sucker ?"

How does the saying go, "I would rather be alive coward then a dead hero."

It really would be easier to deal with the underlying social problems instead.

EXACTLY but the Left can't deal with the facts to confront them with.

I have watched it happen all my life.

When I was ten years old I use to take my .22 rifle (uncased) and walk with it to the other side of town to the city garbage dump all by myself.

Stop on the way and buy myself a hundred rounds of ammo for $1.00.
My buddies would meet me there with their .22's and we would shoot rats all day Saturday and then walk back across town with our guns.

If a ten year old tried doing that in this day and age their would be a S.W.A.T Team called in with parents going to jail.

That is one example of how times have changed in the last fifty years thanks to the Gun Grabber Liberal teachers teaching children that guns are BAD.

But what do you expect when you take God out of the schools, pamper the kids with safe rooms, teach immorality to them as being o.k., having the feminist movement think raising children without a father doesn't make any difference, having the courts be the third parent in the marriage, giving kids real life video games that you get an extra 1000 points for shooting a cop...........I mean do you really wonder why society is so screwed up to the point these kids actually think it is normal to have a mother with a penis ?

If you really want to get to the root of the problem then lets.

I really like Gun Owners of America as a political advocacy group.

Thanks Sig, will be looking into joining this week.

That's NRA propaganda and a lie.

That just shows how much you have been brainwashed.
Do you think it is a secret what you Liberals goal is.
You fight constantly for it inch by inch year after year.
I have watched it happen all my life.
Taking our AR-15's is just another tid bit and then another tid bid and then another until you have disarmed America, your goal.
It will never stop so the NRA is forced to put it's foot down and nip it in the bud and keep saying no, no, no.

You all have guns because you're all living in fear

Just the opposite.
I have a gun so I don't have to live in fear as I am to old to run anymore.
And like Sig and I both have said, "we live in towns where you never see a gun or any gun violence, zero."
Pam you are constantly trying to paint a picture of America being a war zone even after you have been told that most of the gun violence is concentrated in seven major cities in the U.S.

The rest of small town America, especially my home town is just as safe as Poland is.

I thought you had something to drink tonight

There you go projecting false innuendo's since you are unable to back up any of your claims with sources.
Maybe the third time will be a charm and you will comprehend the issue here.
Like I said in post #399 that you have avoided, "All of the mass shootings have been done by mentally ill people on anti depressants and anti anxiety medications" that have possible side effects of hallucinations. (Remember the shooter said that he heard voices telling him to do it)

My point here is that family knew, (he had fresh cuts/slices on his arms and his posts on social media saying that he wanted to be a school shooter while sporting several different firearms) he had been expelled from school, (for aggressive behavior) so his teachers knew, the police had interactions with him 39 times (in a two year period) so they knew that this guy was a ticking time bomb.

All of these people should have done their best to make sure because of his mental illness of aggressive behavior that he was not allowed to purchase a fire arm.

I seemed to have forgot that part of your constitution in relation to the "defense against tyranny governments that you had to be non-diagnosed and not on medications, to bear arms"

Doesn't, State Laws covers that.
Many people are excluded from owning, purchasing or possessing a firearm in the United States.
For example anyone with a domestic violence charge, prisoners, an aggressive felony charge, a felony drug charge...........
Many people in the United States are lawfully excluded from the 2cd Amendment by State laws.
And yes, the mentally ill with aggressive behavior like all the shooters have been are also excluded from owning a firearm.
And if the system had not broken down the Florida shooter would have been on that list.

But I'm also not stupid

Shall we use the word ignorant.
By chance do you suffer from mental illness to be so adamant about giving guns to the mentally ill ?

My reply to your lame post didn't deserve much thought.
In fact only a diagnosed mentally ill person themselves would think it should be o.k. for the mentally ill taking anti depressants and anti anxiety medication to own a AR-15 assault rifle themselves.

You don't have to admit to it here on a public forum however for the life of me couldn't come up with any other rational explanation.

How you coming with those sources to back up your previous claims above ?

How many mass shooting are there, how many people have a "mental illness" in USA. How many people take prescription medication.

Do your own homework as you seem to be the smartest guy in the room.
Do you know how Google works ?
When you get done post your source for your ill claims otherwise they are just twink fodder.

the founding fathers would be ashamed of you for denying the right to someone who is not a criminal

RIGHT......let's make it a requirement that all mentally ill people on anti depressants and anti anxiety medications be allowed to carry loaded guns.

Let's see how well that works out.

They are avoiding the real issue of MENTAL ILLNESS & PRESCRIPTION DRUGS like the plague.

99.9% of mentally ill people will never commit a crime let alone a violent crime

Because they were not professionals and at least the average teacher would have a fighting chance.
The S.W.A.T. teams are professionals in these cases.

I just wonder how high the human cost has to be before anything changes.

As long as you gun grabbers refuse to face the issue and debate it the longer it will go on.
It is not the guns fault, the gun is being used as a political pawn for the Left which is typical for the Left.
WE don't choose to have guns so YOU shouldn't be allowed to have one either mentality.

As far as I can tell, no one on here is a "gun nut" whatever that is supposed to mean or be implied as a pejorative.

Just another clueless foreigner that thinks they know what is best for America Sig.
I have an idea, let's turn this thread to the real issue to correct the problem since all these shooters have one thing in common....MENTAL ILLNESS !

All of them have been on mind altering anti depressants and anti anxiety medication.
All these prescription drugs have warnings on them not to operate machinery or drive a car because they may cause drowsiness yet none of them say, may cause hallucinations WHICH IS one of the side effects of these drugs.

Until the bleeding heart liberals understand that these mental patients should be placed in mental hospitals for their safety as well as the publics safety instead of having the rationalization that it violates their Constitutional Rights the problem is going to continue.

That's the problem, not the guns.
Like Sig, live in a very peaceful town where there is never any gun violence even though many people carry one.
Knives kill more people then guns do.
So back to my idea, let's compare and debate how Poland and the rest of Europe deal with their mentally ill population compared to how America deals with theirs.

That is the key component in these shootings.
