Nah deadset if I had the inclination and knew where to get a pistol I don't think pulling off an armed robbery would be particularly hard.
Then you'd have to be ready to potentially kill someone for it, which kinda freaks me out, man...Nah deadset if I had the inclination and knew where to get a pistol I don't think pulling off an armed robbery would be particularly hard.
Whaa? AFAIK most armed robbers don't get caught during the crime. Loose lips sink ships? Those guys who were blowing up ATMs and held up a bunch of security guards got away with it for ages.Then you'd have to be ready to potentially kill someone for it, which kinda freaks me out, man...
Edit: Er more importantly, if it really worked then I think people would not only succeed in doing it, but also continue to do it. This doesn't really seem to happen, that is unless it's not reported? *shrug*
Well then you'd better stop talking about it.Whaa? AFAIK most armed robbers don't get caught during the crime. Loose lips sink ships?
Nobody really knows why. It could be that Australia just has low crime anyway, we always have and our crime rates have been dropping steadily for a while now.Doesn't Finland have the highest rate of gun ownership in the world? But low crime?
Obviously seeing as handguns and illegal weapons are fairly easy to get a hold of (anecdotal) but gun crime is reasonably low, there is some other factor working to reduce gun crime. Harsh sentences? effective police? idk
hahyour being a bit of a bitch to someone who just wanted to make sure you werent talking out of your ass. dont take so much offence I just prefer to be skeptical to new facts than blindly beleiving all that the internet folks would like me to beleiveYes but you also havent finished school yet so you havent heard much of anything yet have you? Do you know how to google? anyway here is your stats in an easy to read form, i am sure there are better sources out there than this though.
and yes Shroedinger, i understand that port arthur was the event that sparked the gun ban, i was being a smartass. The ban was completely political, only crazies would think port arthur was planned by the government, but it was a very convenient event that helped push through the gun ban. Legislation based on an emotional event rather than hard facts, what a kneejerk government we have.
Chris Rock.We don't need gun control we need bullet control.
If bullets cost $80.00 each will you can be sure that is somebody shot someone then he'd really hate the mofo and be extra careful.
