no excuse needed the reality is in this country i see no reason for private citiznes to own and use full automatic rifles unless someone can convince ne that they need one to protectthemselves or their families wirh one and that one of those will work better then a standard rfle or gun, and isee no reason to use a full automatic assaultrilfe to hunt deer or rabbits
Id i may ask, with no intention of being rude, what is the gun violence like in your country??

do you hear weekly about a college or highschol there where a snipe or gunman went nuts randmly shooting peole, it happens almost weekly here look back at our histiry of gun andschoo violence in the Unites States in the last 10 years

People getting shot is headline news. It still happens. Getting shot to death is even rarer. I can't recall the last time I read about that this side of the millennium. It probably has happened. I just can't remember it.

When people get shot on purpose here, (ie not an accident) it's either someone gone crazy or it's International maffia organisations settling disagreements with each other. Hunting weapons are available if you've got a licence.

But compared to USA Sweden is poor and it's hard to start companies due to the taxes. Choices choices. We're lying in the murder free bed we've made and you're lying in the bed you've made.

He was making a joke mate


on a serious note. With every liberty comes a responsibility.
As an example here. If you own a gun (which is your liberty) the responsibility part is that you have to be sane and return/sell it if you become ill (and OFCOURSE not being allowed to own one if you are mentally ill) and use it with responsibility.
This shouldnt be so hard a discussion imho.
I can most definitely see owning a gun for myself and Sweden actually has quite a substantial amount of guns per capita, but gun violence is quite low compareably.
I can however not see owning an assaultrifle made "just" semi automatic cause there is really not need for one for anybody (unless you are military or police) but handguns and rifles and bows sure thing why not.

liberties and responsibilities goes hand in hand.

Try a bazooka, or better yet, a 60mm mortar. Won't have much left for food or trophies, but it's hard to miss. And it makes a quite satisfying BANG to boot!
