Can a zombie mate with a zombie and produce fertile offspring?

Depends on what kind of zombie you're talking about I think

Just another reason why I hate LA.

A new BBC article about Swizerland and guns



QUOTE "But the fewer guns there are in cellars, attics and armoires, then that would be helpful, because there is a strong correlation between guns kept in private homes and incidences occurring at home - like private disputes involving the husband shooting the wife and maybe the children, and then committing suicide."

Prof Killias was a supporter of the 2011 referendum initiative to keep all militia firearms in a central arsenal - because, he says, of the evidence provided by recent statistics.

"Forty-three per cent of homicides are domestic related and 90% of those homicides are carried out with guns," he says.

"But over the last 20 years, now that the majority of soldiers don't have ammunition at home, we have seen a decrease in gun violence and a dramatic decrease in gun-related suicides. Today we see maybe 200 gun suicides per year and it used to be 400, 20 years ago. "[/quote]

QUOTE Prof Killias cannot hide his anger with those in America who use Switzerland to illustrate their argument that more gun ownership would deter or stop violence.

"We don't have a gun culture!" he snaps, waving his hand dismissively.

"I'm always amazed how the National Rifle Association in America points to Switzerland - they make it sound as if it was part of southern Texas!" he says.[/quote]

You live in a bubble. you've always lived in a bubble. you're the single most naive person in the community, everyone will agree on that fact. get the $#@! out of Finland before you feel the need to share your opinion on ANYTHING, ever again.

Masta proves again how clueless he actually is. Neat.

Switzerland should not be pointed to as a gun-fanatic land, but rather because it has a relatively high number of households with actual assault rifles and a relatively low violence rate. It is more to show that America's problems are more in the nature of our society rather than firearms themselves.

The Swiss service rifles are select-fire... the vast majority of Americans cannot legally obtain such weapons.

Let's take a further look at that shall we.





With all the restrictions the Swiss have put on the reservists having ammo for their guns at home, they still have way too many murder-suicides, and the link between having a firearm at home and that gun being used to harm a family member is very strong.

Yes, the gun culture is very different. The guns aren't there to be the personal freedom tool of the owner, but an extention to the tradition of a citizen militia protecting the state from outside threats. Even so, human nature is ultimately the same, and they are paying a heavy price in shattered lives for all those guns. Slowly but surely Switzerland is changing.



PS. How cute is masta!

Let's take away all of the guns, that'll solve all of the gun homicide.
Let's take away all of the knives, that'll solve all of the stabbings.
Let's take away all of the pencils, that'll solve all of the bad grades.
Let's take away all of the cars, that'll solve all of the traffic accidents.
Let's take away all of the money, that'll solve all of the debt problems.

Am I doing this right?
