World view

yep world view is a bit screwed up... yet some want to follow them.. right over a cliff..

Pakistani citizens and special category of foreigners can legally own firearms. A license is required to purchase a firearm which involves payment of fees, a processing time ranging from a few days to months and registration of the firearm with the local authorities. Present laws allow ownership of handguns of any caliber (at one time this was restricted up to the .38. However, rifles above the .22 caliber are prohibited (excluding those which were bought before this restriction was imposed). Shotguns above 12 gauge are not allowed. A person may keep a firearm at his/her place of residence, in one's vehicle and concealed on person; public display is prohibited (though this law is honored more in the breach than in the observance, especially outside urban areas and in particular by private bodyguards of politicians). Special permits are required for carrying firearms during times when local authorities impose restriction on public gatherings to preempt civil unrest or protests that can turn ugly. In large cities, facilities exist for gun enthusiasts to practice shooting on targets, etc.

looks like it worked out well there.. well not really.. unless the grenade launcher is really a .22

Even though Article 10 of the Mexican Constitution declares the right to bear arms, it is currently illegal in Mexico for any civilian to own a fire arm of any caliber used, tested, or currently in use by the Mexican Government or Military.

This limits a citizen to legally own a .22 to .380 caliber rifle or similar firearm without a full-automatic firing system.

Ownership of any centerfire caliber designed for automatic or military rifles is forbidden.

hmm,.. that doesn't seem to be working either..

In Sudan, it is virtually impossible for an average citizen to lawfully acquire and possess the means for self-defense. According to the national gun-control statutes, a gun licensee must be over 30 years of age, must have a specified social and economic status, and must be examined physically by a doctor. Females have even more difficulty meeting these requirements because of social and occupational limitations.

When these restrictions are finally overcome, there are additional restrictions on the amount of ammunition one may possess, making it nearly impossible for a law-abiding gun owner to achieve proficiency with firearms. A handgun owner, for example, can only purchase 15 rounds of ammunition a year. The penalties for violation of Sudan's firearms laws are severe, and can include capital punishment.


well sadly that isn't working out either..

I guess no one can see how thier gun laws are similar to the proposed laws and rationale from the anti gun crowd,

but when put into action.. the results are a failed state...

limited ammunition.. limited caliber, limited number of guns per person, classes, waiting periods, fees, permits, some can't have guns..


Do I want an insane person to have a gun?.,.. no,, but if Reader2 was in charge of saying who is insane.. none of US would have guns..

and those few left would be limited by the rest..

Maybe every liberal should put thier favorite "limit" on here so we can see how thier "limit" compares to the "World View" or sonmeone could go search out thier "limits" that they alreay posted... :wink:

I am willing to allow the limiting of ma duace and garnade launchers.. to only those who are qualified and pass a federal course. and get a special permit.. just like they do in the Sudan.. for a .22

In Sudan, it is virtually impossible for an average citizen to lawfully acquire and possess the means for self-defense.

I am willing to accept "virtually impossible" on military grade weapons..

I just wonder how the Sudan would be today if the average "law abiding citizen" could own a gun?

Maybe a gun owner in Sudan could defend himself from those that are killing others with machetes? :roll: :roll:

Been reading about the numbers of attacks in England with knives since the gun ban. What's next baseball bats? :roll:
