[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] Answer #1. If we include repeat offenders for other, less violent crimes, several. Answer #2. None. You have no idea how much it irks me to be agreeing with Omega on this issue. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] The thing I keep noticing about the people I encounter who are for gun control: They almost always tend to be Victims. Now, I don't mean victims of crime or victims of gun crime, as much as I mean people with a Victim mentality.. "Poor me, I could never possibly defend myself, so I'd better just give Mr. Criminal all my stuff and hope he just goes away." The problem with this mentality is that once you're a victim, you will be victimized over and over and over again. And you'll be too wrapped up in your victimhood to care about or even notice it. The criminal NEVER goes away. He knows an easy mark when he sees it. Very often these are the same people who expect the government to step in and do everything for them. BZZT! A Supreme Court decision not so long ago even ruled that the police are not obligated to protect individual citizens. This is one of the reasons stalkers have a field day.. the police can't do anything about them until it's over. As for this being Netherlands' first shooting, and therefore somehow being less... just you wait. See how/if your media plays it a lot. You think the US is the world's only powderkeg? [/QB][/QUOTE]
