"The football world watched in awe"?

You must be thinking of the arsenal defence and their hundred million DM, as Taiwo and Anthony tore past them.

I felt sorry for them. They had to have a sit down, and try to work out what had just happened to them.

They've got no chance in Europe, at least not unless it's got a lot easier since we last won the big cup.

Youuuuu reeeedddds!

Rhythm is a dancer, Anthony Elanga.
Taiwo, Taiwo, Taiwo....

There's plenty of that. I would argue it's the root of the problem, not the solution.

I always think that people should be on the receiving end of what they propose, to understand the value of tolerance and support from others.

It seems harsh to wish fascism on you, but I won't lose any sleep over it, given that you started it.

The reasonable gun control doesn't exist, the "nutters" will be able to get a gun. #Japan has incredibly strict gun control, yet Abe was assassinated just a year ago. Because the "nutters" will alwa...

I assume that you are not giving every word the importance that it deserves, because you are too busy frothing at the mouth to discuss it rationally, or don't really care.

It's harder to get guns in Japan. In Japan fewer children are killed with guns in school per capita.

That's the crucial impact of 'easier'.

Absolutism and false equivalence shows an unwillingness to engage honestly and find common ground. Which at least goes some way to explaining why you don't want to contribute to making a fair and free society.

If you can't scrutinise and hold your reoresentatives to the values mandated democratically by your society, there is no chance that you are going to constrain armed individuals to reasonable social behavior.

It would seem to me that you should work on that, not the rights of the criminal or unstable to easy access to guns in order to exercise their whim to kill people.

I suppose that we are all different though.

Japan has had multiple frenzied knife attacks in schools killing children. Estimated guns per capita - Switzerland 27.6, Eswatini 4.8 Firearm homicide deaths per 100k - Switzerland 2.64, Eswatini 37.16 Could there possibly be other differences between countries that influence gun crime figures tha...

It's EASIER to fix the government while the citizens have access to guns. That's the crucial impact of 'easier'. It would seem to me that you should work on that, not the rights of criminal or unstable, working for the government, to easy access to guns in order to exercise their whim to kill un...

Impressively vague. I note that you refer to a societies self determination rather than a peoples (which is the actual agreed definition).

You can kill a lot of ppl easily with a pistol. Should pistols be banned?

I'm not worried about kids in schools as much as about the 1,000 people being killed the the us police force EACH YEAR. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/investigations/police-shootings-database/

Even then it doesn't because as I said the average person is incapable of juggling the concerns of real life with properly informing themselves about political issues. Moreover unless you are 100% h...

This is where tolerance, and a desire to actually form social groups for everyones benefit, comes in.

Those who other groups like immigrants (we basically all are immigrants), are intentionally destroying our society so that we are too divided to stop them taking advantage of us.

A gun won't fix that. We are going to have to help each other to be smarter, and respond collectively.

Perhaps you should have a little bit more tolerance for gun owners rights. Studies show Whites are the least ethnocentric group so it is the immigrants othering us. Multiculturalism reduces collectivism which is why large employers like diverse workforces. Who is "them" that we are supposed to be...

Not having a gun won't fix that.
