They're crime rate is and casualty rate is lower then the US. The US is barbaric and antiquated with it's laws!!

      I'm fairly certain that Pistorius' prosthetics could not have penetrated the door she hid behind which would have drastically affected the outcome.

      @Fuk TH-cam I'm just going to respond to all your comments here. First off if it's guns that are used to kill over 10,000 people every year in just the US, then it's a gun issue. Yes it's true that in the UK I'm never going toe to toe with a bear, maybe a rabid squirrel, but definitely not a bear. So yeah you may need protection from wildlife I'll give you that, but you don't need snipers, grenade launchers, or machine guns to protect yourself from the wildlife. Lastly I feel safe because I don't ever have to fear being attacked by a gun, if you need a gun just to make yourself feel safe in your own home and community, that means there is a serious issue. You need stricter gun laws, less machine guns, less at 15s, make it tougher to actually buy a gun (don't sell at Walmart)
      I swear you people have no clue

      @@danieljob3184 Um.. Martin Bryant, April 28 1996, killed 35 people with a gun. That sounds like a violent gun massacre to me. Think it's just a freak case? How about this wikipedia page of mass killings in Australia:
      en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_massacres_in_Australia
      Notice how many of them are "Spree shootings" between 1984 and 1996?
      And overall gun homicides are on a downward trend as well:
      www.rand.org/research/gun-policy/analysis/essays/1996-national-firearms-agreement.html
      And I had a look into the regulation of gel blasters you mentioned, and it appears that there was a ban on them due to them appearing very similar to regular guns, and that if fired at an individual that is not wearing protective gear they can still be injured, which is why even in the more lenient states like Queensland, they remain illegal to point and fire at an individual without their permission. The reasoning for the restriction on gel blasters is that if a police officer were to see an object that appeared similar to a real, dangerous weapon, they might overreact and potentially cause the death of an innocent individual.
      And did you know that assault and battery are also crimes? Injuring another individual with an airsoft or gel blaster could still induce criminal charges, and you can STILL get them if you have a license. Both "gel blasters" as you refer to them and airsoft guns, especially fully automatic ones like the ones that have been banned, can do genuine harm to another individual, and are not toys. You still should not be aiming or firing them at other individuals without consent, due to the risk of injury inherent to pieces of equipment like these.
      Notice how NERF guns aren't banned? Or any other kind of foam firing weapon? Almost like the danger is the problem..

      @@ethelberht985 Yeah, stabbings are a problem. The primary difference is that if someone brings a knife into school and starts stabbing/slashing people, ANYONE has a chance to stop them - the knife is a dangerous advantage in a confrontation yes, but it has a very limited range and it's effectiveness is largely limited by your skill at using it. Stuff like picking up a chair and using the seat as a shield while you use the legs to maintain distance is actually an effective countermeasure.
      A gun's range is more likely to reach it's limit at where your line of sight stops than anything else in a school (and if you fire it randomly at a wall, can still kill someone who happens to be stood behind it without you even seeing them) and the only skill it requires in this kind of situation is the ability to point it vaguely in the direction of someone and pull the trigger repeatedly/in the case of an automatic just hold it down. Much as I hate to admit it, the most effective counter to someone with a gun who is trying to hurt people is someone with a gun trying to protect them (this does NOT, in any way, shape or form, mean that I think the solution is to give more people/everyone guns - the solution is to make it extremely difficult for someone trying to hurt people to get hold of one).
      As for OP - the advice your mom gave you is great. I'm not a psychological expert on this but, from what I understand, once someone is in that kind of headspace they're not especially likely to differentiate between the people who were nice to them and those who weren't (even though they are likely to have people they explicitly want to hurt). Still, it certainly doesn't *hurt* your chances of not getting shot and, more importantly, a ray of hope and compassion in their life (because, when you're that isolated and miserable, basic kindness in the school corridor can be a HUGE boost) makes them less likely to end up shooting anyone.

    • @aecides3203
      @aecides3203 3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      @@ethelberht985 My point was that it's extremely difficult to use them in a way that allows you to slaughter dozens upon dozens of people without anyone stopping you, as well as being much harder to actually fatally injure someone with a knife than it is with a gun.
      I actually wouldn't agree that knives (or acid) are a 'major issue' for us - yes, they're used. Yes they're a common weapon choice for people looking to hurt others. But if you compare our rates of stabbings to the rates of shootings in countries which either have legal, easily accessible firearms or very little ability to enforce their laws against them, they're really not high enough that we need to be panicking - arseholes will always exist, will always find ways to make it easier for them to hurt others and the media will always make as big a drama as humanly possible out of it. Unless it's a school being shot up in the US, in which case the Media will downplay it as much as possible, bring on NRA advocates to explain why more guns are the solution and occasionally try to ban video games because the kid played Call of Duty or something similar (because obviously it's not the *gun's* fault, it's their game consoles).

      Now in answer to your personal attack on Biden, you really think that a known sexual assaulter, bigot, racist, lost his dad's millions after he cheated his family out of a fare share, who wears orange make up, dodged the draft, faked his qualifications, lies daily, thinks that windmills cause cancer, thinks he knows more about science than actual scientists, has settled out of court multiple times to avoid jail time, fakes being a christian and doesn't give a shit about god or jesus but wants those who do to vote for him, got his trophy brides parents in to America using a dodgy immigration scheme that he tried to remove once in office, is a hate monger and the most divisive POTUS ever is a better candidate than a boring old hack (Biden) that has been in politics all his life and even if you disagree with him is WAY more qualified than the biggest loser in POTUS history, then you my friend are about as clever as a fart in a jar!!!!
      PS when you say that Trump got more votes than any other candidate in history,,,,, guess what,,,,

    If a bad thing keeps happening, we fix it. But when the fix doesn't work, like stricter gun control hasn't worked in parts of america where it's been tried, we look for another solution. This is rich from the guy who's country has its head so far in the sand that they've started trying to regulate cooking utensils because people used them in place of guns.

      I want some of these people to walk into a place that sells firearms and ask for a 'machine gun' or an ' assault rifle' and see how long they actually have to wait before it's in their hands. There are a LOT of steps that have to take place before you are even allowed to PAY for it. It's not like you can get them out of a vending machine and walk away with it in less than a week. I tried to buy a pistol once and didn't realize my driver's license was expired ( by a day(. I got red flagged and was on that list for over a year. Even after my state issued picture ID ( driver's license ) was valid it took hours before i was allowed to even PAY for it. We have robust laws in place. If you were to hold the actual laws and regulations in your hands it would look like the Gutenberg bible. I have no criminal record and i was flagged for trying to buy a firearm without a valid ID. The laws are there but in some shady places they are not properly followed.
      Now, to even be allowed to PAY for the fully automatic fire arm you have to apply for a tax stamp, then THAT gets reviewed over a many months long process and it may or may not be rejected.

And let's not pretend guns are the only problem in the US or Australia, both have the same problem with religious extremism, although they will never call it that because "Christians". There is a reason secular countries around the world are doing so well, they did away with barbaric habits, where as the US for example put their barbaric behaviour into law.

      Yes there are shootings, but look at the figures 37 Dead over 20 years. Imagine if those shooters had access to semi auto firearms?
      We dont have gun shows and getting a AR15/AK47/M15/ MINI14. legally is impossible as anything with a pistol grip/changeable magazine is banned.Also selective fire weapons are a big no no. And then theres the license, backround check , police check, you have to belong to a gun club, and complete a gun course. Then you have to satisfy the authority why you need a gun.(hint protection and self defence are not good reasons!) And then you need to register the gun and the police will check your gun safe to make sure it complies.thats the legal way, criminals who have guns generally only use them on other criminals . To count as mass shootings is deemed to be a shooting where 5 or more are deceased due to gun violence.
