  1. There is slight evidence that mass shootings in the USA during the Clinton assault weapons ban of 1994-2004 slightly decreased, as would be intuitively expected. That ban ended in 2004 and efforts to extend it failed. That ban survived Constitutional legal challenges in those times, however with the current overwhelming conservative composition of the SCOTUS another such ban at the current time is very unlikely to survive Constitutional legal challenges. United States Constitutional law is based on the 18th Century rights of Englishmen (which by the way current modern Englishmen and women there no longer possess). These rights are/were "the right to keep and bear arms" so that they might serve and defend King and Country against invasions from the Danes, the French, and the Spanish, traditional enemies of England in the 18th Century. The U.S. Constitution preserves these rights for Americans. Only Americans, Israelis, and Swiss have these rights. No other nation does. And certainly not the English anymore. Q.E.D.

  3. Never trust bootlegged booze. Always just make your own out of sugar and yeast then distill it 7 times until it's 99% pure.

  4. Tigers are the #1 top predator on Earth. Even grizzly bears are only #2 and behind them. The stupidest conservation policy imaginable is to repopulate them anywhere beyond Siberia. They are prospering just great in Siberia. They don't need introduction anywhere else.

  15. This piece developed so slowly and boring that I never could hold out why anyone on Ireland would be inclined towards suicide. Next time try giving an intro, then the body, and a conclusion so that your next piece becomes comprehensible to the rest of the English speaking world please.

  20. These particular dumb sh!ts are too lazy to sell their old guns back or else these guns are stolen. In the USA it is communist to dispose of a gun. You can always give it to a friend or relative and then that friend or relative will be safe from crime, as the US Supreme Court has recently noted in their landmark NY State ruling that all Americans have the Constitutional right to carry concealed loaded handguns in public in all 50 States.
