See DD, I'm not the only one who feels Bricktop presents his side well.

[Frood]

He's a cowardly little effeminate leftist.. he has no valid side.

He's a lot more rational than some of those debating him.

I don't think any of us have strong opinions on the issue of gun control in the USA, besides yourself and Dinky..



Which is odd since neither of you live in the USA.

[Bricktop]

Yet people here have very strong opinions about American politics.



Perhaps MORE non Americans should realise that America is not our best friend.

It's because I am unfortunately living in this socialist fuckwit mecca but grew up with civil liberties elsewhere.



There's nothing to debate with Bricktop. He's a lily-livered authoritarian prick and that's that.

If you give me a gun I will use it.... Best not give loons like me a gun. I am serious. I will kill if I have to and I will kill paedophiles if I catch them... and jail doesn't scare me.

Especially Canadians, our economic well being is tied to how the USA does.

I am hardly a member or the American NRA. I have never touched a firearm in my entire life. But, I know a buy back like Australia did would backfire in the US. They are two completely different nations.

[Bricktop]

The buyback succeeded because it had overwhelming support from the populace.



Cries of "unfair" from gun owners were drowned out by the roars of approval from the vast majority of Australians who wanted these killing devices removed from our community.



In the US, the reverse still seems to apply. But the clamour for change is growing.



One of the major influencing factors in America is its corruption. Its politicians are for sale through political donations as the table below illustrates.

Millions of dollars are poured down the throats of compliant politicians, guaranteeing support for the gun freaks and profiteers.



This, of course, is what Americans call "freedom". America's unwillingness to do what is necessary to protect its citizens from gun crimes is a cost of doing business for firearms advocates. Yet many people still swallow the propaganda and gloating and believe America is the bastion of a free democracy, and many politicians take the knee before the US government.

[Anonymous]

Let's get one thing straight. The idiots in the US congress who want to restrict weapons are the same jackasses that want open borders, defund the police, and lighter sentences for violent offenders. Same shit in Canada with Justine's new handgun cap.

[Bricktop]

And the same bought and paid for idiots on the other side who want more guns think national health care is a crime against humanity, abortion is immoral and religious teachings should be compulsory in schools.



This is the problem with ideologically perverted democracy. You don't get to cherry pick the issues you want represented in government. You only get to choose which ideologically immersed party gets to govern. You may like some things they represent, but its pretty unlikely you'd like them all, no matter which side you cheer for.



This is precisely the reason I don't vote. The modern democratic system is not issue, but ideologically driven. Especially in Australia.



You have illustrated how imbecilic it is. If you're for open borders you vote for the party that concurs with your view. But they also want higher taxes and police departments defunded.



You want to ban abortion, but you also get religion in schools and higher military spending from the other side.



It doesn't work. What's worse, in 4 or 5 years time, everything may be reversed when the opposite party wins government. You don't even get consistent government.



Ideology is killing our societies.
