WHEN DID I EVER SAY THE U.S. DOESN'T HAVE THOSE THINGS? I was saying that it gives good, law abiding citizens the opportunity to defend themselves against those things, instead of just grabbing their ankles and hoping the police somehow get there in time to rescue them.

HOWEVER, guns can and do prevent other incidents from occurring, such as home invasions, lone gunman rampages, etc.
I don't need to. You have the same tools available to you as I.
Look it up, look up incidents where armed citizens thwarted crimes. As I said before, the genie is out of the bottle here. I'm not saying you guys need to adopt the right to bear arms, that's none of my concern. As the above poster stated, we got out of there, and now we make our own rules.
Police and local officials said they were not aware of any anti-social behaviour on her street or against her.
Councillor David Owen, said: "This has not raised itself on the radar.
"It has not come to the attention of local councillors. We have a very good relationship with the police, we have meetings with local residents.
"Residents are normally very quick to contact the local council if they get bad neighbours or petty crime."
Mr Owen said it was not known who took the manhole cover.

Your BS isn't even worth a reply. I have the right to bear arms here, period. I'm not up to having a conversation with a condescending nitpicker who wants to act like they have a hard time comprehending what I'm saying. Get bent.

You said that gun rights PREVENT those things from happening. I just asked you to prove that is even a little bit true. Even a little.
