[quote:Captaininyourface 29885874:MV8yMDgwNzU4XzM1MDM5Mjk4XzIyM0JGOEZC] [quote:ming:MV8yMDgwNzU4XzM1MDM5MDM4X0RCNTBDNDFG] I'm so tired of this. If I go into a busy supermarket on a Saturday and start slashing at people with a knife, what for you reckon my kill count would me before I got taken down? Compare that to me walking in with two guns. I mean c'mon, ITS FUCKING SIMPLE! Two guys get into a fight. In the US there's a huge chance of guns being drawn, bystanders being hurt or killed. Here, its just two guys hitting eàch other til their freinds split it up. I totally understand you want the right to defend yourselves, but when you start spouting shit about "guns don't kill people" you are talking absolute shit.
