Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

There's no need to ruin Europe by putting more firearms in it

There is "no need to ruin Europe" by letting people continue to drive automobiles (just look up the death stats and compare them to gun related violence).

Most Europeans would be happy with even tighter gun control.

How about more automobile control? It would save lives, let alone all those injuries. Let's be consistent.

I heard he was mason and pro-gay.

I found it interesting that the very first descriptions we've heard about this nutcase was that he was "right wing". When other bombings occurred, the press acted quite differently. We were in essence, told to "wait for the facts".

It's odd that some "right wing racist" nutcase would kill his own people instead of those he allegedly despised. It's exactly opposite of what his supposed leanings would do. At this point, not much of this makes sense. I suggest, let's "wait for the facts" to come out. My guess is that this young man is insane.

It seems gun lovers just don't like facts.

You will once again be introduced to this book: amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0226493636/t/3782-9387712-550397

Information from the book......

"The statistics are dramatic. Whenever concealed carry laws went into effect in a county during this 1 6-year period, murders fell by 8.5 percent, rapes by 5 percent, and aggravated assaults by 7 percent. If...., all states had enacted "shall issue" laws, murders in the United States would have decreased by 1,570. There would have been 4,177 fewer rapes and over 60,000 fewer aggravated assaults. This unequivo­cally supports the wisdom of our Founding Fathers who guaranteed that our right to keep and bear arms "shall not be infringed."

"It means that the bleeding heart gun control advocates, the Sarah Brady types weeping about dead children, and our legislators and presi­dents who support them, are directly responsible for the deaths of over 1500 Americans.....

At a summer camp?

I wouldn't think so either, but there you have it. It happened.

So much perhaps

Exactly!

he presence of an armed cop didn't stop the Norway killing spree.

Perhaps they needed two armed cops?
Perhaps this is an argument for 'conceal and carry'? If some of the adults there had a weapon then the madman would not have kept shooting so incredibly long.

This event shows that honest people should be allowed to own and carry guns. As is often said; "if guns are outlawed then only the bad guys will have them."

Yes, our educational institutions should be required to teach 'gun diversity' training. I intentionally put in the word 'diversity' because it will confuse liberals who in their mesmerized state will immediately support anything with that word in it.

Good video Malopolanin; it should be must viewing for the gun afraid-y cats.

Poland doesn't need them. As I said earlier- Poland is civilized.

Was that the talk in August 1939 in Poland?.........of course, a gun became a most valued commodity after that...........

People who want to confiscate legal guns are the same people who know 'what's best for the rest of us'. Too much sugar, too much salt, restrict this, restrict that......it goes on-and-on. Evidently, they don't have much faith in people to make their own decisions.

No wonder they love BigGovernment.

Law / The right to own guns: would you support such legislation in Poland? [2237]

I'm officially claiming that Kennewick Man was really Kennewicki Man; a guy who set sail from Poland on his way to England (for a job) but got lost. He was swallowed by a big whale who regurgitated him on Coney Island. Kostek Kennewicki then fought his way across the continent decimating one Indian tribe after another. He fought Chippewa, Navajo, Kickapoo, Nex Perce, Seneca, Choctaw, Cree, Shawnee, Dakota, Delaware, Fox, Hopi ,Huron ,Siouan, Comanche, Mohawk, and finally Mohegan Indians, indeed the last of them. Only the Abenaki Indians escaped his wrath because the tribe name sounded Polish.

Since it took him 50 years to make his way from the eastern to western shores of America, he was able to sire many many children. Amerindian women couldn't resist him. He died while defending himself against hundreds of jealous husbands who later paid homage to his heroism (He killed 300 before they got to him). If only he'd had a gun.

What's your point?

You, among some others here, 'feel' that the great American continent belonged, 'in some ownership fashion' to a group of people often identified as "Indians" or "Amerindians". That belief assumes that some great indigenous tribe called "Indians" (sic) owned this real estate like some kind of deed. That is disproved by the Amerindians own customs and deeds.

The "evil white man" was just like the "evil red man"; only better equipped with technology.

edit: As to first settlers in the Americas, Kennewick Man presents a puzzle.

some of your best friends are Jews, blacks and Asians,

That's the zillionth time we've all heard that addressed. You cannot believe how archaic those types of redresses are.

Some of my best friends are equal opportunity bigots,

That statement contradicts itself, but as I've often said, "with liberals everything is relative."

sue me!

Another hizzy fit? I don't need the money because I don't pay my "fair share" lol.

did the Europeans' introducing guns and other fire arms to the Native Americans necessarily improve the latter's lot?

Mixed blessing but the Amerindians always sought "the white man's gun" which they also used against other Indian tribes.

to defend themselves against a race of invaders who shouldn't have been there in the first place??!

Who's to say who was supposed to be where? Were Indian tribes who exterminated other Indian tribes morally correct?

I see, Zimmy. So the fact that the "Native Americans" helped the Puritans through the first winter with food, medicine and counsel etc.. counts for little in your eyes since the former had no 'invention technology' to show for themselves, nothing to compare to white European 'civilization' is that it?

No, that's not it but continue to 'assume' additional self-serving opinions as is your ignorant right.

Therefore, as soon as the natives could prove themselves the whiteman's "equal" (whatever that means!), they would have been worthy of respect, and hence, of living, eh?

.....and so you do.

"other Indian tribes" besides the "native Americans" and who would they be? Zimmy,

You show an immodest knowledge of American history. Are you really unaware of the many different Amerindian tribes who often fought against each other?

Hope this helps.....from "500 Nations":

If the US didn't belong to the original inhabitants, then to whom?

The concept of land ownership by the so-called "original inhabitants" was different from that known by Europeans. The "original inhabitants" often fought and burned their neighbors villages and commandeered their possessions and land until they, themselves were beaten by yet other tribes, sometimes related to them.

Perhaps, if the native Americans had 'invented' the wheel or the gun they would have had a better chance against the 'whites' and other Indian tribes.

Upon taking power, why do all dictators (Stalin, Hitler, Castro.......etc) immediately enact laws which confiscate guns from citizens?

They dont. Quote them please, references,links anything substantial ..............

Obviously, you failed to read my post number 5; I'll repeat most of it here:

"“The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing."..............Adolph Hitler

"“If the opposition disarms, well and good. If it refuses to disarm, we shall disarm it ourselves.”
....... Joseph Stalin

"I gave the categorical order to confiscate the largest possible number of weapons of every sort and kind. This confiscation, which continues with the utmost energy, has given satisfactory results.” ....Benito Mussolini

"“All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns..." Mao Tze Tung,

“Guns, for what?"
A response to Cuban citizens who said the people might need to keep their guns,........Fidel Castro

The above dictators (among others) instituted laws which prohibited citizens of their countries to own firearms. Try to do some research on your own.

Hmmm, murder rates comparable only to third world narco states...

Not quite the whole truth. The murder rates in certain communities are indeed high, and one can claim that these communities are a bit "third world' in themselves. Excluding minority violence, the U.S. murder rate is comparable to any other low murder country. For example; In Chicago, the other week-end, there were 5 murders and 18 others wounded. That was just the week-end. All 23 victims were minorities and all perpetrators were minorities. I'm also willing to bet that none of the guns involved were duly registered.

This creates a double problem for those minorities who work hard and want the best for their kids. They are sometimes seen as a threat by general society and they are disproportionately harmed by others in their own community.

I will add that legal owners of guns have a very low crime rate. That's common sense if one takes the time to analyze it.

Quiet reflection on the harm guns do.

Guns are inanimate objects. They do no harm. Bad people with guns, almost always illegally obtained, do harm.

Of course, certain primates shouldn't have guns...

after living in Poland for a couple of years you would probably conclude that you do not need a gun here

Is that what Poles thought in August of 1939?

no gun probably equals no murder.

...except for the thousands of murders committed without a gun.

Mostly criminal gangs have guns. And they usually shoot each other.

Correct and correct. Gangs don't register their guns and obtain them illegally. Legal gun owners have the lowest crime rates.

Love / How do Polish men feel about gender equality? [780]

You use it, then feign shock when its directed at you.

Barney, with you everything must indeed be 'relative'. When I correct someone or use facts, statistics or storylines, you somehow feel that is the same as someone suggesting "small penis". So if I call you 'thick minded' that's not shaming language, it's fact because you don't know how to connect the dots.

...how much of an Alpha male you are, something that alpha males feel the need to do

Not to worry, there are plenty of beta males like you. Maybe you can join or start a club for beta males? In fact, some of my best friends are beta males.

you post links from crank sites

I suppose that a crank site is one you don't agree with. (many of my links have been from standard news sources).
By the way, do you believe that anti male feminist sites are also crank sites? Do you not believe that men should have equal rights in domestic court cases? How about false sexual assault or rape accusations? Do you know that feminist organizations don't want women punished for falsely accusing men? How about 'affirmative action' for women at the expense of more qualified men?

Women have several health offices in government even though they live 5 years longer than men. Men don't have one......these sorts of lists go on and on......and I see no problem bringing them up for attention to people like you who don't seem to know much about these areas.

If you're ever in Chicago I'll give you a tape measure and you can see for yourself. In the mean time here is a list of women's shaming languages; you seem like the perfect candidate and instead of honest discourse you can continue to ask questions in your juvenile manner:

exposingfeminism.wordpress.com/shaming-tactics/

Just wondering why you are so insecure....

For 4 plus decades women (feminists) have bashed men in a variety of ways; books, articles, tv sitcoms and tv commercials and in law; If you were looking for insecurity, I'd start there. When men have finally begun to demand real equality instead of the one-sidedness so prevalent then men are accused of oppressing women or in your case as in so many womens, you try to use 'shaming' language. That's not an argument and it's noticeable that you did not respond to any specific facts or links I've posted on this subject which affects all of society. Just for that alone you lose.

hmm not sure about 90 per cent... I will let u know..:)

You seem reasonable enough to go for the whole 100%. After all, none of my facts are disputed and they are here for all to see. Those who call me names automatically lose the argument because that's all they have.

btw wtf is a "slut walk"?

It's the latest excuse that women give themselves to dress like sluts. They can use this as an excuse to become exhibitionists.

maybe its a load of scruffy women??

That's part of it; the other part involves women dressing like hookers; frequently being partly or mostly naked and otherwise attempting to show their bodies availability. It is frequently disgusting to see 'thunder thighs', or super saggy breasts or a huge caboose (buttocks) which can ruin my eating properly for a day or two.

It is a cultural phenomena that women use almost any excuse to get naked. Women have undressed for many unrelated reasons;
animal rights; vegetarian rights; environmental rights; these and many more causes have been used as excuses for women to take off their clothes. Even the (Partia Kobiet) "Womens Polish Party" which is ostensibly a political party has women taking off their clothes:

It's been briefly discussed in these forums.

I am almost convinced that there is something inherent (evolutionary) in the female make-up that explains this. It also would explain the 'me-ism' so innate in feminism.

Sounds more like the inequality of job types...

That's right; not all jobs are equal. That logic seems to be lost on those who still 'feel' some sort of "wage-gap" which I've more than explained in these threads. If a man is up on the 50th floor of a high-rise trying to build another floor unto the building, I somehow know that he should be paid more that a woman working as a retail clerk at a perfume counter.

George Carlin

On several occasions I've had drinks with George Carlin (surprisingly, he preferred red wine). One of my friends knew him well and that's how we got together whenever George was in town.

I'm certain that Southern is interested in the "pimp walk". That's a given. lol

Oh, just one of the many 'not so nice' comments from the late Mary Daly, a 'womens' studies' professor:

“If life is to survive on this planet, there must be a decontamination of the Earth. I think this will be accompanied by an evolutionary process that will result in a drastic reduction of the population of males.”

Isn't that sweet?

Gentlemen; it seems that the U.S. and Canada will be assaulted this summer by the latest feminist tactic called "slut-walks". This excuse for women behaving badly originated in universities where our brightest but naive young women are brainwashed in womens studies courses to take action against the patriarchy. Feminists seek to be offended but they seem to have run out things to protest about so it's come down to this.

nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedcolumnists/slut_walk_feminist_folly_6wtwkoKdY0RgRtGfWTe47H

This seems to me to be nothing more than women, albeit feminists, desperately trying to be noticed while dressing and acting, well, slutty. It's never dawned on me that slutty women were such fighters for "equality". What do the women in these forums think about that?

edit:

for gods sake zimmy I am one of the few women here who listens to your points and sometimes agrees with you.

Well, I won't be satisfied until I get you up to a 90% agreement level ;) ...but please, don't join the "slut walk" :)

A book doesn't change the way you gravitate towards the opposite sex

Many anti male feminist books have certainly influenced many women. So I guess you are mistaken.

I'll suggest one more book; "Who Stole Feminism" by Christina Hoff Sommers. If interested readers only purchase one book on this subject than I recommend this one.

you're actually doing a lot to promote feminism here

Only to the jaded mind. I suggest that some here are learning something for the first time and like good medicine, it hurts a little at first.

You're holding onto thoughts that make you feel bad about others... I don't get that?

Nothing beats feeling bad about others like a womans' gender studies class. So many women seem to major in hating males. Next time you see a television ad featuring yet another dumb male who is stupid or is laughed at or even hit or kicked than you'll begin to "get that" as you put it.

Not to worry, despite my lectures here which seem to shock the delicate female constitution, I am quite the optimist. You have not had the privilege of seeing my mesmerizing blue eyes and my captivating seductive smile. Not to mention my immense modesty.....

You have over intellectualised the only romantic love you're ever going to get.

Honey, if you only knew.

i understand.... can you please answer yes or no to my questions, please?

If you understand then why are you requesting "yes or no" answers? You sentence/question contains an implied contradiction.

This thread is becoming a headache

This thread deals with gender equality but you don't like the responses from the men who have had enough of the constant male-bashing these past four decades. Such misandry is ubiquitous in feminisms' literature; articles, books, movies, sit-coms, tv commercials and of course universities whose latest hot bed tactics are the many "slut walks" scheduled for this summer. Perhaps some of the female posters here will march in these "slut-pride" protests? Female empowerment certainly has taken a turn.....

don't we have enough aesthetic out there...?

It's more than obvious that many here have little knowledge of the real intentions of professional feminism. I recommend the following reading materials:

"Red Feminism" by Kate Weigand
"Spreading Misandry" by Katherine K. Young
"Sexual Personae" by Camille Paglia
"Professing Feminism" by Daphne Patai
"The Myth of Male Power" by Warren Farrell

we only comprise of TWO genders... magine we were more..

If there was a real third sex than men would gravitate toward it. It would have to be a nicer one .....
