Listen sweetie, in the U.S. they sell boxes of ammunition like candy bars. Hand guns are as ubiquitous as black umbrellas. Your blithering about Euopean civil society is absolutely such a naive response to American urban jungles that we can only conclude you are pathologically aloof.
Listen and learn. Then feel the sense of relief that the trouble makers were all deported from England in the 1700s. We're still across the pond making trouble. Hitler's big mistake was that he never realized American cities operate under low level military conflict all the time. Don't be dumb like Hitler was.
Wow Godwin's law came into play pretty bloody quickly there, didn't it? What raw nerve of yours did I just touch? Or are you having a bad day? I might be an English speaker, but that doesn't make my country a sort of cultural 'colony' of the US. We don't know everything about how you live, and I personally wouldn't dare presume to be able to separate the Hollywood from the reality. So I for one just talk about what I know.
Is it really such a 'pathology' then that I respond to America with Europe? Can you respond to Europe with anything but America, and other places you might have lived?
Having spent time on four different continents, I suppose I could digress into a comparative cultural discussion. But this woman fears for her life. That's serious stuff, isn't it?
Well, if you want to digress, nothing's stopping you, and it's not going to hurt anybody. She'll make her decision either way. As I say, all I have to contribute is what I know.
*moan* You are an irresistible woman. I hope you know that. And, I am committed to encourage Mensa level discussion at IIN where ever I can. So okay. Firstly, I must compliment you on your astuteness of Godwin's law. Bernoulli trials, as well as Chi Square sampling methods, and other topics in Advanced Statistics are as alluring to me as honey is to bees.
Secondly, I have been to Southeastern England, and seen black constables in tube stations, and other urban choke point locations. These guys speak the Kings English and have the exact demeanor to encourage trust and orderliness under the implied standards of public conduct that keep London running. In other words, they are culturally integrated. Racial discussion is largely irrelevant.
Now, head across the Atlantic. Intelligent blacks have long since studied at universities under equal opportunity scholarships and moved to the suburbs. They have two parent families that teach their preschoolers how to read and do arithmetic with objects like coins on a floor. Smart kids, no problem.
Ghettos have gotten progressively worse. Alcoholic single mothers washing their fetuses brain away. Drug culture, everyone is illegally armed. Pepper spray doesn't cut it. Shooting your assailant in the leg with a low power .22 round is the minimum effective defensive response.
Your go my friend. I am enjoying this. I think I like you.
Should I buy a gun if I fear for my life
