As much as I hate to use buzzwords like such, This is the fundamental principle of conservative ideology. Hence why Canada is always described as America's socialist neighbour. Conservative cultures are simply more pessimistic towards others, while socialist cultures are optomistic in the face of human potential. For instance, people here tend not to like guns, because we're not afraid of eachother, so all that we see on this issue are the accidental deaths related to personal gun ownership. On the other hand, if you go into the rural areas and the prairies, you'll find alot of people who adhere to the principle that guns should be kept as self defense.
Some sociologists theorise that this gap in ideology could be due to the fact that "city people" have been forced to live with each other for a long time, and consequently, have grown more tolerant of others. |
kudos man
you hit it on the head.
i was saying the same thing, but my drug use prevents me from phrasing things so eloquently. |

Yes I own a Glock. Just sold my mossberg shotty.
Theyre great for stress relief at the range. I don't intend to shoot a person |

In Britain a farmer called Tony Martin was jailed for life (served three years though) for killing an unarmed robber in his home with a shotgun.
I saw a TV program that showed a gunclub in a state in America that gave substantial financial rewards to anyone that shot a robber dead!!!
I haven't contemplated this long enough to decide which one I agree with more. Anyone know of this club and what state it is in, I can't remember? |

| Also, I forgot to mention that in this American state you wouldn't be jailed either. |

not yet... but hopefully soon i will...
though i could go to Wal-Mart right now and get a shotgun if i wanted to.... they just check my ID and sell it to me.
hmm....
but i want a handgun. and there's a small waiting period for that one... and they're pricey. unless you buy it off Jamaa`l on the street corner.
