Cultural ha? there are probably several tens of thousands of a particular flavour of immigrants we're presently hosting who could claim hereditary rights to the use of an AK47.....
Surely you dont wish to return to pre-PAM, the bad old days with weekly massacres, murder on the streets every other day, peril for all kids and the vulnerable, people afraid to go out at night, car jackings, murderous abductions.. oh hang on it wasnt like that at all!!
We've had 18 years of false interpretation of data, propagandising by all political parties, and outright pure lies.... most notably the greens to legitimise the treasonous action in response to pam.... who continue to claim the changes saved 'thousands' of live, and they repeat that with a straight face, claims that suicides have fallen dramatically when in FACT the number of suicides during 1996 was 2393, and 2010 was 2,418!!! The truth is relative....and measured by degrees.
But FIREARM suicides have reduced significant, they still claim no substitution...
edit to add; I dont think Boof was really as interested as others on here, he hasnt returned since the question....
