When the war against terror started, the Brits were the only people to back the U.S. 100%. Remember, this is despite the fact that the U.S. has given sanctuary to many members of the IRA. The U.S. has also allowed Americans to send millions of dollars to the IRA for several decades, money that was used to blow up children on buses in London. Almost like stabbing your best friend in the back. Of course, with the Patriot Act this practice has come to an end, after the American people got a taste of what Brits have had to endure for years.

The reason is quite obvious. Brits are basically an entire nation of SWPL progressive Lefties who love to look down on American proles just like our own native SWPL progressive Lefties do. The feelings of Brits towards “Americans” (meaning Tea Party types) are precisely the same as those of snooty American progressives towards Tea Party types – i.e., hatred and contempt – and for precisely the same reasons.
If America had no proles, and no genuine conservatives, then the Brits – and all the rest of the Eurotrash – would like Americans just fine.

America gathers global resentment because its an intensely powerful nation which is in charge — or seen to be in charge — of global economy, world peace and everything under sun. America like the beta male it can be in its foreign affairs, apologises for every action it makes and is cast in the role of white knight for the rest of the universe: everyone expects it to act as saviour without gratitude or even wanting their help.
So the British give themselves a false sense of superiority by criticising them for everything from a perception that they’re somehow less classy (ignoring their own chav class) and more fat (ignoring their own disgusting rate).
Believe me, Brits can own guns. I’ve seen the consequences of the injuries, as well as the famous case of Roaul Moat. And you can do wicked business with knives.

As a person that exercises their 2nd Amendment rights, I wish the stuff available in Mexico was sold here. All those weapons going into Mexico aren’t coming from the US. Especially the full auto assault rifles and weapons like RPG’s and heavy machine guns. They’re being bought from arms runners that have access to that kind of inventory from some third world shithole and not some lowly FFL dealer from across the border in the US.
Drug cartels don’t buy the same semi-auto rifles we Americans do as the media wants people to believe. The media falsely spreads the idea that they buy full auto machine guns and then take them into Mexico which is totally a lie. Class 3 weapons are not sold or even available like that and for a civilian to obtain them, they must go through numerous background checks, submit fingerprints and pay a $200.00 tax stamp. These cartels have the money to spend on whatever they want with the connections to get them what they want. Maybe some real investigative reporting could uncover facts instead of spreading falsehoods and allegations in order to brainwash that masses that so called evil gun dealers (and associated availability of “machine guns”) in the US are the one’s responsible for arming the cartels and therefore must be legislated out of existence.

No wonder Americans are so universally reviled when they show such ignorance and arrogance. How the original commenter must have laughed at such incompetently expressed hostility.

Incidently, Iago is a character in a play by a famous dramatist from England. He came from Stratford upon Avon. I’ll let you look him up on Wiki as I’m sure you have no idea who I’m talking about. Iago was not known for his effeninacy.

If robbers want to get into your house, they will. Avoidance of these people is the way to go.
You can also get attacked or robbed walking across the street or school yard, like my son and his friend did, in a completely random racial assault (aka, hate crime, which never made it into the FBI stats), for which, BTW, no one was ever arrested, since most of these “troubled youths” have no fixed address (They keep moving around. Might be living with their mother, grandmother, Aunt, other relative, has moved back to Georgia, etc) and the police can’t be bothered tracking them down. What for? There would be no penalty applied worth the effort. What’s a random beating worth, anyway?

It convers everything, starting with site selection, home and landscaping design, hardening your home in terms of disguising your most visible assets, and avoiding the places where the demographics of people most likely to start trouble “work” are part of the book’s plan.
Mainly it contains a phone book-sized amount of knowledge and instructions regarding making your place safer from everything from robbers to ICBMs. with some pretty simple ideas using cheap materials and simple techniques. Some crazy retired contractor wrote it and it’s very, very, very detailed.
Then properly secure your home to your level of comfort. It’s not rocket science and depending on your efforts, the effects can range from giving you ample time to prepare for “social work” to making it nearly impossible to break into your house without a few platoons of Marines. It’s a good read.

One thing I’ve noticed arguing with anti-gun people online is that they have an almost ubiquitous inclination to suggest that people who own guns do so to compensate for small penises.
