Lets give our 9 year old little girl a Uzi!!!, by Deleted on Aug 28, 2014 10:41:00 GMT 1, Uncontrolled capitalism which I agree with if capitalism is combined with integrity.
Surely the gun instructer was at fault not the parents.

Lets give our 9 year old little girl a Uzi!!!, by Hubble Bubble on Aug 28, 2014 10:51:37 GMT 1, I'm a big fan of yours, Wearology. But I think you might be slightly misinformed as to how many folk over here are stabbed to death at football (soccer) matches.
Also, if I might make a couple of points: whilst knife crime is undoubtedly high in the UK, the amount of pro rata knife deaths per capita in no way compare to gun deaths in the US.
Also... I'm not aware of legalised knife training centres in the UK where young children are taught how to effectively wield and kill with a knife.
I realise its a big issue but I don't believe the answer will come from comparing the US's problems to those of other countries.
Peace and love HB

Us English see BOTH as totally unacceptable and completely unintelligible.
2 pictures of armed children hold little difference to us. Somehow in your Psyche this has become not only the norm, but part of your goals and ambitions (not all of you i know, thank god!).

Lets give our 9 year old little girl a Uzi!!!, by Coach on Aug 28, 2014 11:10:25 GMT 1, The minimum age to shoot a machine gun at that gun range in Arizona is actually 8 not 9. The whole tragedy was caught on video as well. The whole thing is just so surreal.
According to the interview (shown on bbc) with the range owner or employee, that's right. But I think the interviewee said unless it's a .22, in which case the youngest age was said to be 5 or 6, I can't remember which.

There is abundant evidence that this is the universal feeling about the ancient customs of one's country."

Lets give our 9 year old little girl a Uzi!!!, by t3c on Aug 28, 2014 11:40:29 GMT 1, Let's break this down.
An Uzi Submachine gun isn't a hunters weapon or a sporting weapon of any kind. The Uzi was designed for two purposes in mind, to be able to fire off a rapid succession of bullets in the quickest time-frame possible and therefore kill as many people as it can through-out this process. It's why that and the Mac10 is favoured by drive-by gunmen the world over. A quick & efficient human killing weapon.
What happened in Arizona shouldn't have happened obviously, feel free to learn how to shoot a rifle or a handgun that a child can potentially control if that's your vibe, but not a sub machine gun, thats just plain insanity isn't it?
This is by no means American bashing but surely if tragic accidents like this keep occurring in the US then it's hard to swallow America getting all high & mighty telling other countries what they can and can't do. Sort yourselves out first, then come with the international policies.
This tragedy brought back all those insane twitter pictures of those kids excitedly opening up presents on Xmas day only the presents they were opening were AR15 Assault rifles (before they finally banned selling them) & various add-ons to make their weapons "super awesome!"
Fill your boots, there are many pictures..

Herodotus c.440BC Apparently nothing has changed This quote is wrong kultur - By quoting it, you fail to acknowledge all sorts of examples where this quote falls down - e.g. the millions of people who choose to migrate / emigrate each year, people who convert to another religion, people who change sexual orientation etc...
You are quoting a Greek historian who's reliability and accuracy was questioned even in his own era, and remains controversial today. By choosing this quote, you do nothing to advance your point of view, which I respect your right to express.
No one here is mocking the "native customs" of the American people...partly because, ironically, the native American culture has been all but destroyed.

Lets give our 9 year old little girl a Uzi!!!, by Dr Plip on Aug 28, 2014 12:07:54 GMT 1, There are a lot of elements of British culture that I don't agree with.
Just because the law or constitution allows for something, it doesn't mean that you automatically have to do it. Questions should be asked why parents believe they need to introduce their children to guns in this manner.
Having said that, there are a lot of people that don't thrust guns and flags at their children. There are dangerous elements in all societies, whether they are criminal or just plain stupid.

If hunting was banned then all the predators (wolves,coyotes,cougars) would eat all the deer,elk, big horn sheep,etc. Then what do the predators have to eat?
US! And what if you are going camping where there are predators? What happens if a bear comes into your camp: You are just going to let it eat you?
The predators love to eat small people. Kids are small!!! You see, this is why we need to teach the kids more dual wielding automatic weapons. There is a old saw my dad told me: "You can't be young enough to learn to kill with automatic weapons, but you are always too young to be a breakfast."

I could be very wrong but to me it's not really a story that has any reasonable or logical explanation.Treading on egg-shells a bit but what on earth exactly needs to happen before gun laws/control are looked into? Fcking never!!! bearing in mind just how much money that industry brings in.
Then again I don't have access to tv channels forcing fear and ignorance down my throat
