I propose that Amnesty International and the UN give up their guns first in a sign of good faith.

So guns may be a mans thing, but we do not get bent out of shape on how many hair dryers the ladies have and or ice picks.

U.S. studies have shown that having a gun in the house increases the risk that someone in the house will be murdered by 41 percent, but boosts the risk for women by 272 percent.

What absolute liberal BS. these figures have been refuted over and over again!

Only the police should have guns. Since America is acting as the World's Police, because no other country has the moral will and courage to do the job, only Americans should have guns.

Works for me.

"We want tough action."

The term "tough" does not conjure up images of blue helmets shouting "Stop! or we'll say 'Stop' again!"

How do they intend to be "tough" with well-armed non-cooperators?

I think their message is for woment to arm themselves. That would be much easier than getting trid of all guns.

"Given that they are almost never the buyers, owners or users of small arms, (women) suffer disproportionately from armed violence,"

I see they've never met Mrs. Lurker.

"Where guns are available, more women are likely to be killed," Searle said.

Not true. While more women are likely to be killed with guns, fewer women overall are killed or injured by violent criminals when there are more guns in the population. The mere possibility of a victim that can use deadly force to protect herself is enough to dissuade many violent criminals from their planned acts.

There's really no point in arguing with them. At some point, we'll just have to kill 'em all. If we don't...
