Guns are for pussies!

kirikaFor those who have not seen the lovely "give your daughter a gun for christmas" poster yet go here. I am against owning weapons if you're not in the (official) law enforcement and I hate that ridiculous attitude so many US americans have towards owning a shotgun. I know you're gonna think, "hey, that Kuschi, her favourite anime is NOIR and it's all about the guns" and you're completely right. It's just negative about guns. I mean it may look all cool when the 2 girls run around shooting villains but the deep part of the story is that both of them wish they had never been trained to use guns when they were toddlers because it's just plain horror.
So yeah, justifying owning a gun with a slogan like "Cops own guns to save lives - so can you!" just proves what kind of a moron those people are. For me, owning a gun means you're planning on using it. And when you use a gun you shoot at someone, and when you shoot someone he gets hurt and in many cases dies. Meaning, you shot a person dead. Murdered a human being. Why would you want your child to do that? Or know how to? Guns don't save lives, guns TAKE lives. I can sort of live with sport-shooters who are registered and in a club etc. They usually aren't the problem because there are so many tests you need to pass in order to be allowed to use a gun legally. But that USA attitude majorly surpases that. And in that weapons campaign the even bluntly state that you should own a gun to KILL someone in order to defend yourself. That campaign promotes murder.

How come if a cop in a risky and unclear situation shoots an unarmed person they get in all sorts of trouble but in the USA you're perfectly allowed to shoot someone who breaks into your house regardless whether he was armed or not, just by declaring self-defense you get away with murder? What the hell?

Really? How do they justify that? Even in their frakked-up minds?

And also, what the hell goes through someone's head when they bump into someone and then get pissy and just draw a gun and repeatedly shoot them in the head for not watching their step? (That happened in Zoetermeer a week ago) People like that should be sent to prison for life! Never let them out again. Ever. The justice system in this country here sucks. That guy will walk again in less than 5 years, I'm sure! They should do it like this: First of all, raise the punishment tremendously, cause now the maximum for anything is only 20 years (yes even for coldblooded murder), and then just add-up all the sentences to one long prison stay. Let's say 15 years for illegally owning a gun + 15 years for firing it + 30 years for attempted murder.

Really, guns are bad news. Nothing good comes of them especially in all those wrong hands. And let's face it, anyone can fire a gun. It's for weak losers who can't deal with anything and who have absolutely no clue about how life works and what it's worth and how one person's life influences so many others...

I mean in an ideal world, even cops would not carry guns, but they do need those and they are trained to shoot properly to only wound a person and most importantly they are trained to cope with the repercussions of shooting at a person, cause, don't underestimate the effect it has on you.

And even in my beloved movie "Léon - The Professional", in the end Léon wants to protect Mathilda from that world of guns and violence and death so she can have a normal childhood and notbe exposed to that kinda crap, cause he knows what it's like, and it's bad.
