Perhaps the USA is a police state, and not the pinnacle of freedom and liberty that its citizens have been told it is?
It definitely seems to incarcerate more of its own citizens than any other country.
If you read my posts I said many times that the state has lost the plot. Almost everyone can have access to guns and use them. When you have easy access to guns and use them and then the officers are not trained well and just shoot to injure or kill then the number of gun related crimes and police related deaths is expected to be huge!
You clearly have no clue as to how police officers are trained to respond, do you?
So, why spout off on a topic you know nothing about?
Just to show off your ignorance?
If so, bravo! Well done!
You have succeeded brilliantly!
They are not trained well in the US.
If you see the post by @bastion he explains well his is the training in his country (presumably the UK). In the UK citizens don't have access to guns and police officers are not 'cowboy' officers. Are much more reasonable, they don't usually have guns, but the officers who use them rarely kill citizens. You do understand the chaotic difference in this approach?
I understand you may not like my posts because I don't subscribe to the supernatural nonsense pushed in other threads but to argue that almost unrestricted access to guns and gun use have no consequences it's probably worse than the various claims made in support of the supernatural world...
If yall would still had yalls guns then the Autralians police would not had locked down your people as hard as they did in australia. talk about GOV giving you freedom instead of being born with it and the Gov not being able to tell you what to do.

I am not 100% sure of what you are trying to say but I think guns could not have prevented lockdowns and the use of guns would have resulted in many deaths and injuries. Just look at what is happening in the US. I am not from Australia.

the THREAT of the use of guns would had prevented the hard lockdown the australians were put under. And OPPSIE i replied to the wrong person,my bad. And America is fine. most gun deaths are from CRIMINALS and their killing of OTHER criminals.

Ahhh, so American.
And you consider the 2nd Amendment, "madness"?
Is this what you understood or you are attacking the strawman?
Just replying to your post.
Now you sound like an agenda-driven troll.

But you seem to be attacking the strawman rather than replying to my post.

Do you think everyone in this world shares your interpretation of the second amendment or that every American is in favour of gun ownership/use. The gun related deaths and their frequency is what people call madness.

I don't F###ing care what the rest of the world thinks.
The Constitution and Bill of Rights reigns supreme in America.
Deal with it or move out.

I'm pretty sure he/she doesn't live here and is not a US citizen.
I believe I saw that he/she is an Australian.
Thank God for small mercies.

Australian? Not really.
But Australia hasn't lost the plot when it comes to gun ownership and use. Just like New Zealand, the UK, Germany, and the rest of the European countries.
