However your comments regarding getting guns and going to jail and blah blah blah were really a waste of your typing fingers. That was pretty stupid considering I think those things are same all over 
|
A waste of time? Most countries DO NOT have your laws on hand guns! There are few countries which have such a lax attitude to guns as the US. It is very easy to buy a gun in the USA. You must be 18 or over. When you buy a gun from a registered dealer, you have computerised background check. This only takes a few minutes, and you are free to go and shoot who the hell you want!

I will add my experience of going to America to visit Engish friends who have emigrated.
We were going to travel through 10 states, from where they lived in St Louis to Florida, Punta Gorda (actually does not hardly exist now due to the hurricane).
Anyway, after we had a nights sleep and before we began to travel, he went and bought a gun! Just walked into the shop, produced his drivers licence and came out with this magnum! It would blow your brains away. And who suggested to him the model? A police officer friend of his. And is coment was, don't get anything less as it would only tickle the receiver of the bullet.
This loaded gun kept us company in the glove compartment and then in the hotel rooms, as we travelled. I was more scared of that bloody thing than the prospect of being robbed!
Actually I hated America and would never go back. We met some VERY STRANGE people.....................

Is there a particular reason why your English friends bought that gun?
I completely agree that the gun laws are extremely sick.

are you praising europe's social care system?
this is the ever worse thing the europoeans have created!
europe today has created lazy bottox!
you dont work and yet still you have a social care and all the best service just because you are poor thing unable to work out your personal life!
good prisons for criminals! social benefits for lazy bums! super conditions for the immigrants (sort of resorts with all luxury stuff). minorities have more rights than majorities.
so its better to be from minority, do nothing, but enjoy a "super social benefficiary life!"
no money? dont worry! the gov will give you!

I don't know all the system in all the europeans countries. I know a bit the one in France, I think which is probably one of the best in europe, and I praise their social system. At least, I am sure that I will not be left by the government on the pavement or at the door of the hospital even if I did have no money or no identity card on me. I feel myself secure when I know that even if I do not work, I cannot find a work, I can get a little money to survive. I think what you said is not very right. Because what they give when you do not work is just a little money, and no real healthy people would prefer to live with that small amount of money, but at least knowing that you will survive make me not worry about my future. This system make you feel yourself a human being that is valued and respected by the government.
Every system has its disadvantages and will create its parasites, but I think this system is much more reasonable and has much more benefits to its citizens than any other system.

Mltm, I don't know much detail about the European social system, but I haven't heard one good thing about it, other then them looking down on the US for not having one. Seriously, the idea is GREAT, but the way it works in reality... I think is far from what was intended.

I think it seems like none of us really knows well about the social systems. Don't know, it seemed me good, at least better than the system in Turkey, and heard that France was among the best on this, though the french always find something to complain and want to get more (I think people are never completely happy about what they geti maybe they would be thankful a bit more if they lived worse). What I think is the system can be improved and work better but should never be given up.
