Norway’s Guns Are Way Too Lazy

Home - by - January 7, 2013 - 22:45 America/New_York - 18 Comments

Or maybe their guns are pacifists. Their guns don’t get up and start shooting people like the guns here in America.

Last year in Norway, there were 1.6 million guns, and 29 murders.

In other words, 0.0018% of gun owners in Norway murdered someone last year. That’s even assuming all of the murders involved guns, which probably isn’t true.

It upsets me greatly when I see some in the liberty movement suggest the possibility of a “reasonable compromise” with liberals on this issue. There is no such thing as a reasonable compromise on gun control, because only one side of the debate has reason on its side. There is zero evidence whatsoever that guns cause murders. There is overwhelming evidence that murderers cause murders. The claim “If we cut back on gun ownership then we can cut back on murder” isn’t supported by any rational argument. Let us never compromise with it in any way.

  1. here is my “reasonable compromise”

    January 7th, 2013

    I’ll only buy one new gun a month, instead of 2.
    I won’t buy any gun smaller than .40 caliber.
    I’ll start hiding my guns in PVC pipe,in the ground. Not at my home.
    If I hide them at home in my yard. They will be too easy to find.
    Ok?

    I hope you all have stocked up on ammo as well. It’s getting scarce out there.

  3. Ammo

    January 7th, 2013

    The Feds are buying ammo like they are planning to raid a lot of homes and take a lot of guns. I have been ready for this for years. I will give them my ONLY gun. I swear I don’t have any hidden anywhere. Using GPS to locate them. Not me.

    Guns don’t have HFCS or trans fat and they are gluten free.

    Make things just as the progs want ‘em and they still bitch up a storm.

    .45 IS THE BEST AUTO EVER. Kinda like SAA’s too. I have a design for a new barrel and barrel bushing I’m going to give a whirl. I’ll keep you posted.

    There’s three discount ammo sales store within a 20 mile radius. They all have a waiting list for bulk .45. It’s a frenzy.

    I reload .44 mag, and .270. You would need a progressive for a .45 or a 9mm to make it worth your while. I’m just doing the old Rock Chucker thing. But they may change if people keep buying all of it up. I have been saving all my .45 brass.

    IMI makes a damn fine .357 in their Desert Eagle line. The only simi-auto .357 that I know of.

    Norway has low population density, few large cities, and few non-whites. Look at the racial statistics of offenders in the US.

    Just for fun, it would be interesting to see this story re-written using automobiles and traffic deaths instead. Lets see what those statistics are and ask why the personal automobile is not banned….

    Cowardly (or fake?) conservative pundits are not explaining that the second amendment is for protection from the government. This issue should be brought out into the open at every occasion then everyone will see what the progressive agenda really is.
