Yes but may they recover. Don’t laugh.
Dear sensible European Female, leave now and don’t look back or you will turn into a pillar of salt.
Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6. Thats what a cop told me when i asked if using a gun was worth it to protect myself. Still the laws in my state are very restrictive. The politicians know they cannot control criminals so they restrict gun access to everyone...hoping to keep guns from the bad folks. Very ineffective in keeping guns from bad folks.
Sensible?
True story.
true - note that here any regular American that gets caught by State Security carrying a knife or heaven forbid a pistol is treated as a dangerous enemy to be immediately put down like a dog
Coumo is the Emperor of New York?

Yes, wanting the ability to defend and protect oneself, ie... with a gun is sensible. Replace with any synonym if you like, they all work. But my suggestion is to flee the wacky lefto world of Europe, and don't look back.
You bring up a good point. There are other reasons for gun control legislation besides well intentioned but feckless crime control.
They don’t restrict guns to protect you. They restrict guns to prevent you from using the last resort to stop when you have tried every other method.
To stop the politicians, I mean.
“The politicians know they cannot control criminals so they restrict gun access to everyone...hoping to keep guns from the bad folks”. ......
We all know how well that works in Chicago. How many dead there this weekend? Or the next, or the next?
If I were the young lady who wrote the above article, I would leave that country and find a place where you CAN protect yourself. With what is/has taken place, the U.S. MAY NOT be the best choice.
Did something get lost in the translation? Anyway, sounds like this gal is ready for U.S. citizenship.
As an Algerian anti-islam pundit put it in French, if you have free speech except you cannot criticize islam, you might live in an islamic country. According to him France is de facto an islamic state. Sure they still have these laws in the books and parts where you can feel french, but he compared it to a married couple whose wife has had a secret relation with a muslim for years that everyone knows is the established relationship, only the husband is the dupe who will be last to know and be told to get over it.
Basically Europe needs to be told: “get over it, women need to wear the veil, all surrender your private properties to the state”
There is nothing more communistic and cowardly liberal than the language punishing the owner and sensible user of a gun and excusing the criminals “borrowing”, the police going back to the original owner instead.
Then you're a ******* fool and nothing can be done for you or your dying society.
She had a good article until she said “Being pro gun doesn’t make me a hillbilly with no teeth”.

Sounds like France to me.
