They'd do it with pipe bombs, knives (there are many countries looking to ban steak knives), etc. Your reason for hating firearms is my reason for owning them. The right to self-defense is born within us regardless of whether or not a sheet of paper or judge says so. It's really not a liberal or conservative, majority or minority issue at all. I know white, black, conservative, liberal and gay people that carry. It's a basic human right.
In the USA DC has the highest murder rate yet guns are illegal to own there. (IMG:

couldn't agree more... i still can't imagine how someone is able to pull a trigger on someone else, unless it's to save others lives, like a cop shooting that bastard, for example... even then, one is taking someone else's life away.
the lack of respect PERIOD is a big problem in our society, not only towards life, towards others and even property.
You mention cops but it may interest you to know they often times have a higher percentage of negligent discharges than armed citizens here in the US.
I'll respectfully disagree with you when it comes to firearms. There are much bigger issues at work here. I carry a .45 every single day with me where ever I go (but NOT at work and school). It's because I have a great respect for life and would do anything to protect my family and loved ones. It along with training, practice, and just plain common sense gives me a fighting chance.
