ellenbrook2001 553 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Cebu Daily News today 2013 jan 24 And editorial http://www.cdn.ph/i_editorial.php This is what I was afraid of.... There are a hell of a lot expats in the Philippines keeping their noses clean and helping the local economy but it only takes one idiot with a gun to feed the local xenophobes .....and now they are linking this up with the mad frogs online scribbles.... Any foreigner with a gun here...please ram it up your own arse and pull the trigger. I "Thanked" you for the first part of your post, but I also would like to slap you for that second part. I have a legally obtained firearm in my home here, and it it is a necessity and was sanctioned by the local PNP Chief so I can protect my family and myself from the mess ensnaring us in mixed-up personal affairs of another Canadian citizen who had obvious mental issues. These two Canadians were allowed passports and were allowed to go to another country were they commit crimes that did others harm. The Canadian government is to blame. Countries should screen their applicants when applying for Passports and refuse those with questionable backgrounds. It is funny how often when such events occur that those around them make statements like "there was something very odd", "they had obvious behavioral problems", or "you could see it coming". The problem is the lack of social and personal responsibility for one's actions and the laziness of the bureaucracy. The truth is most violent crimes are avoidable but ineptitude of those around them prevail and not a collective common sense. I love the "IF THERE WOULD BE NO GUNS ALL WILL BE PEACEFUL AND SAFE, AND ALL WILL BE ROSEY" convoluted thinking by narrow-minded doorknobs. There are more people attached and killed by bats, sticks, and knives than by firearms. Most countries that have abolished firearm ownership to their citizens still have regular murders and excessively high crime rates. So all those with trees and knives should stick them up their arses too? This twisted man possessed illegally obtained firearms, as do the criminals in your own home country does, so they can prey on the good citizens who now only have bats, sticks, and knives to protect themselves. I think these anti-gun activists who use every opportunity to express their narrow-minded self-serving dribble should take their keyboards and stick them up their arses were they will actually do some good. Gun control could never work in the PI and probably USA but it has worked in some countries In 1996, 35 people were killed in the worst gun massacre in Australian history. But the next decade saw the firearm homicide rate fall by 59 per cent, and the firearm suicide rate fall by 65 per cent, without a corresponding rise in non-firearm deaths. Australia’s response to the 1996 massacre was comprehensive. Admittedly, policies such as its government gun "buyback" policy could not conceivably be passed in the US. yes that correct since then less murder ,i am shock here the AQUINO hes against it? if all the country have zero tolerance on gun a am sure the death rate will drop a lot especially school children Link to post Share on other sites
JamesMusslewhite 14,479 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 People ask me where I am from all the time, I tell them, Canada. No one thinks anything about it? what did you expect? They would run away in fear? No, because most Filipinos think it is close to California or Florida.... just like Germany is,,,, 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ozboy 6,594 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) The thing is Australia has a popultion about 23 million as i understand, n no idea what it was when the Port Arthur massacre took place, our crims target each other n not the public in general except a few isolated cases like Julian Knight n his random target shootings in melb, our ethnic gangs fight mainly among themselves over century old prejudices....America is a totally different society with black americans, hispanics n other groups that have a huge chip on their shoulders n the populace r caught up in the crossfire....guns are the only way the people there feel the need to level the playing field...

panther 845 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 At least now people are arguing about who has to claim him. "He's yours!" "No, he's yours!" I don't care what passport he held. What he did was wrong. He chose the easy way out, too, after the fact. That is the bottom line concerning this thread, for me. The thought that he was a man who ran away from his country, makes him a coward in my book. I have no respect for anyone who does that. In fact, anyone who ran to Canada back then (or who may run to another country today), should have been shot for doing so. On or about my 18th birthday, I did what every adult male American citizen was obligated to do at that time, and which still applies today. I went to my nearest US Post Office and signed up for Selective Service. Young American males have a duty, an obligation to protect our nation. That is the price you pay for freedom. Those who enlisted and served, and those who died before us had no problem serving. So, it is good enough for every generation since. you ran away from the philippines to cambodia you will be shot at noon Link to post Share on other sites

From my resources this is a blatant lie. Where did you get those statistics? These are since the gun ban not since the massacre. http://www.ncpa.org/sub/dpd/index.php?Article_ID=17847 Even Australia's Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research acknowledges that the gun ban had no significant impact on the amount of gun-involved crime: In 2006, assault rose 49.2 percent and robbery 6.2 percent. Sexual assault -- Australia's equivalent term for rape -- increased 29.9 percent. Overall, Australia's violent crime rate rose 42.2 percent. Moreover, Australia and the United States -- where no gun-ban exists -- both experienced similar decreases in murder rates: Between 1995 and 2007, Australia saw a 31.9 percent decrease; without a gun ban, America's rate dropped 31.7 percent. Duringthe same time period, all other violent crime indices increased in Australia: assault rose 49.2 percent and robbery 6.2 percent. Sexual assault -- Australia's equivalent term for rape -- increased 29.9 percent. Overall, Australia's violent crime rate rose 42.2 percent. Atthe same time, U.S. violent crime decreased 31.8 percent: rape dropped 19.2 percent; robbery decreased 33.2 percent; aggravated assault dropped 32.2 percent. Australian women are now raped over three times as often as American women.

Could you please quote a source for this contention . Looks very suitable for a gay Korean ....
