Isn't it just amazing how Second Amendment and NRA nutters try to deflect their stupidity over to other countries to try and make out that they don't have a problem that ranks them up there with 3rd World countries. |

The Washington Post has an article showing that most of Trump's organisations are under investigation. Mounting legal threats surround Trump as nearly every organization he has led is under investigation As you can imagine the list is too long to post here. |

Isn't it lower in the table, that Clyde referred too, than most third World countries. Without looking I think he said twentieth from bottom. There are 195 countries in the World. |

That depends on whether the graph works from the best to the worst or vice versa (the graph that I refer to had the worst at the top). ;-)Isn't it just amazing how Second Amendment and NRA nutters try to deflect their stupidity over to other countries to try and make out that they don't have a problem that ranks them up there with 3rd World countries. |

Sorry, in the UK we usually refer to the bottom as being the worst place. We think that is logical. |

How about if I rephrase that to, "Isn't it just amazing how Second Amendment and NRA nutters try to deflect their stupidity over to other countries to try and make out that they don't have a problem that ranks right up there amongst the worst surrounded by a lot of lesser developed countries"? |

If you feel that threatened, and need firearms to protect yourself, your family and your property, then it is time to move out, to somewhere less threatening. |

....and so now the "Blue Eyed White Man" described by 'witnesses' as the shooter who murdered a beautiful, innocent little girl in Houston in a drive by shooting, turns out to be two black Gangbangers doing what they usually do. ......there is no reverse prejudice in America........

You can convict a black man of anything anytime in America. |

i.e. costs. Won't spend the money to do proper vetting. "An Ordinance for the Regulation of Hackney-Coachmen in London and the places adjacent" was approved by Parliament in 1654, to remedy what it described as the "many Inconveniences [that] do daily arise by reason of the late increase and great irregularity of Hackney Coaches and Hackney Coachmen in London, Westminster and the places thereabouts".When will we ever learn, and stop the profiteers in their tracks? I think that "killing six people at random" counts as an Inconvenience. |
