The Wonder of Shari'a

How come gun control never works? I guess criminals don't really think much of laws. Oh yea, I guess thats why they're criminals. My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"
Well, Germany has approx. 1/3 of the population the US has. In the US, accidents included, there are over 11000 death by firearms. In Germany, there are around 200 each year. So, I guess, you could say that gun-control works alright. Or, to put it more offensively, gun control reduces the deaths by firearm by a factor of 20. And why? Because it is much harder and more expensive to get a firearm here. Even for the criminals. Cheers, Sebastian -- Contra vim mortem non est medicamen in hortem.

You could change that by a factor of 2000. Two words: Gun control. Cheers, Sebastian -- Contra vim mortem non est medicamen in hortem.
In Texas, "gun control" is hitting what you aim at. ------- sig starts "I've heard some drivers saying, 'We're going too fast here...'. If you're not here to race, go the hell home - don't come here and grumble about going too fast. Why don't you tie a kerosene rag around your ankles so the ants won't climb up and eat your candy ass..." - Dale Earnhardt "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001

So what you're saying is gun control doesn't work any better in Germany than it does in the US. Tell me - what good is a law going to do against people who don't generally obey the law to begin with. Oh wait, I know, you're just a little slow... ------- sig starts "I've heard some drivers saying, 'We're going too fast here...'.

I love it. Tell me your idea of a "subtle" way to remove Iranian PM. Maybe if we just talked to him? no that did't work. Maybe he just needs a big hug. My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

How about we make him an offer he can't refuse, "Here's $50 million, now resign, leave the country and let X take over, or we will hunt you down, and kill you and your family." The invasion and continued occupation of Iraq has proven to be very risky and wasteful (in terms of lives, infrastructure, and costs). Perhaps a more practical approach would have been to invade, find and kill Saddam and his followers, install an interim government, and pull out. We would have returned home victorious (as true liberators, not occupiers), and with a lot less casualties on all sides. Alvaro

What do you think is going on right now? You can't just "install an interim government" without some attempt to making it stable. And you can't expect people with little practical experience in self-governing to just magically have a functioning government in a few months or whatever timeframe would suit you. BW
If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

Iran to hang teenage girl attacked by rapists. "In August 2004, Iran’s Islamic penal system sentenced a 16-year-old girl, Atefeh Rajabi, to death after a sham trial, in which she was accused of committing “acts incompatible with chastity”." "The teenage victim had no access to a lawyer at any stage and efforts by her family to retain one were to no avail. Atefeh personally defended herself and told the religious judge that he should punish those who force women into adultery, not the victims. She was eventually hanged in public in the northern town of Neka." http://www.iranfocus.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=5183 My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

Very sad. I wonder how people let this kind of thing happen in the 21st century. Are people too afraid to stand up and be counted? Or are they happy with this kind of "justice"? All countries have their shameful moments when it comes to "justice" but this kind of thing makes me angry because there is so little I can do about it. And what makes me sadder still, is that you got voted down for posting it. Michael CP Blog [^] Development Blog [^]

Well I really wound'nt want to reward him with money for being a jerk. It might give other leaders a bad idea.

If we did that then everyone would say it was just a puppet goverment of the US, right?

I think this remains to be seen. Costly yes, but not wasteful. Time will only tell.

Exactly what we did. But we are going to pull out when the job is complete, otherwise it surly would be a waste. Why bother.
Alvaro Mendez wrote:

We are not occupiers. There is a plan to leave, it's just that we are not going to say publicly when that date is becase the terrorist would just sit back and wait for that date. My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

But they do get them, and there are killing by firearms in Germany. And how many were not criminals? Poor bastards they killed never had a chance to defend themselves. My mom told me once that "while we all don't speak the same language, everyone in the world undestands an asskicking"

kgaddy has a tendency to find the flimsiest of sites that report the weirdest of events, then extrapolates that to all things Islam. My initial reaction is to assume the report itself is false, until I can find supporting evidence.
