Re: Did your views on guns change?
I agree that it is always good to get different points of views, especially if you approach the topic with an open mind - regardless of how strongly you already feel about the subject.Whitney Marchelle wrote: ↑02 Mar 2018, 22:27 My ideas on guns didn't change, but ita always good to get different points of views on things to better understand or solidify our choices.

No problem Krystel96. I can imagine in countries like yours with a lax government the problem is extreme. Even here in the US with all our laws we can't completely eradicate it. The problem boils down to two things. It is a mental health issue. And what's in people's heart issue.

They all passed all these tests, and they all know how to use a weapon, but only police officers, bodyguards etc. are allowed to have one. ( I am not counting all the other people that of course, can purchase them illegally, or the ones that need them as a hobby - duck hunters or what now - apologies, I am not familiar with this).
I believe that this is a wonderful way of preventing disasters. In case of civil war, or war where they need people to go into war apart from soldiers, all the men would be ready to use a gun. But they would never be able to use it for private purposes.
I don't think everyone should be allowed to have a gun, and I don't approve even people having gun for private purposes. I find it quite dangerous, no matter how many checks a person goes through, or how safe that might be - there are always loops and holes in such laws.
