GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?

[Jimbone]

Absolute complete and utter unadulterated fucking horseshit.

Any chance of a German invasion of the UK completely ended after the battle of Britain a battle America played no part in whatsoever. While the UK were fighting this battle the yanks were saying “uncle Adolf? He aint so bad!” The krauts completely and utterly lost the air war in Britains skies ending forever any hope they had of successfully invading the UK. It wasn't until the nips raped your ass at Pearl Harbour that you showed any interest in taking any part in WW2. The UK completely selfless in declaring war after the Nazi invasion of another country the US completely selfish in declaring war on its own terms as fucking usual.

Your supposition that if the krauts hadn't invaded Great Britain the ruskies would have is more completely speculative bullshit.

You were reluctant to take part in and late for two world wars in a row we paid you billions in compensation for your gung ho GI cannon fodder. We owe you precisely fuck all.

Your ignorance is again on full display in this thread. It's a shame your educational system failed you so dismally. Your anti-Americanism is well engrained.

To characterize the US as cannon fodder or that the European theater was winnable without the US is patently laughable. Material supply of food, oil, and munitions from the US before entering the war was critical to the UK staying afloat... and the industrial output and fighting force after entering was the turning point in the war. While you may not agree, I'll defer to the great Sir Winston Churchill. He knew once the US entered the war it was over for Germany. It's why he lobbied Roosevelt and American leaders to enter the war prior to December 1941; it's also what made him tell his aides that the war was over when he heard the news of the Pearl Harbor invasion.

You should visit some of the small villages that dot western Europe. Most of them have monuments the US and allies who liberated their villages. And most of them to this day still hold memorial services and have high regard for the contribution of the US to the war effort. Your denigration of it is pathetic.

With regard to any sort of gun control debate, you're entitled to your own opinion of course. But you are not entitled to your own facts. Like it or not, we have a Constitution. It protects what the founders considered the natural right of a citizen to have arms. They didn't define it by 'musket' or 'rifle' intentionally... they intended it to be absolute and not restrictive to posterity. Read the drafting and ratification debates and you'll have a much better understanding of the intent and history of our 2^nd amendment. Until then your rantings here are akin to a fish flopping on the dock.

Also, please note that should the majority of the citizens wish to change the Constitution or re-write it completely, they can at any time. There is no movement towards that at all, and until then we have the law as settled.

Finally, you are quite correct that we had an assault weapon ban in the past. It's effect on gun violence reduction was negligible. Additionally when the ban expired, there was no correlated spike in gun violence. Essentially it made absolutely no difference.
