All Hail the Second Amendment

My reason, is not that you are shooting each other, but it is that this love of weaponry is destroying you. I say this not because I hate America, but because I like you.

Look at you own posts, it is as though the only way to stop what you see as wrong is with force and the more force the better, if this was only about an individual attitude it would be of little consequence, but that idea of direct confrontation being the only policy seems now to colour your entire culture. As an outsider what I see is a country that has become more and more enraptured by its own strength.
We can argue about whether America in the past was right to do this or that, but about the politics of it, as a nation she usually thought she was right because she was spreading some good. Now the drive it seems to me, is not the spreading of good, but about power, the power to be totally protected, and to do that you have the weaponry to take whatever you want from who ever you want and are increasingly doing so. That does not look like the action of a friend, but the action of a Tyrant.
A love of weaponry to solve problems, seems becoming the core of your culture from the individual to the whole society and government. You seem addicted to the gun with ideas like I can stop crime as long as my gun is bigger than the criminal's. Even though we are suffering an economic downturn, your government still has to have and plan for a military that can fight two, not one, but two major wars simultaneously. That is not just designed to be on a par with a power like China but that could attack and defeat China on her own ground.
And all I am hearing is America saying I want I want I want.
You are addicted to the gun.

And all I am hearing is America saying I want I want I want...

...and all I'm seeing is that the left in Britain, (as well with a good deal of the left everywhere including our own nation), is living in a delusional utopia with no sense of the real world they live in...no doubt that your delusional utopia where the world is all beauty and peace and love vs. America, the evil empire, is a creation of your own leftist BBC propaganda...and being spoon fed this anti-America propaganda on a daily basis, there's no other way you see it, that America is the evil super power.

Look at you own posts, it is as though the only way to stop what you see as wrong is with force and the more force the better,....A love of weaponry to solve problems, seems becoming the core of your culture from the individual to the whole society and government.

...no, you're wrong...I don't see force as the only option to confront all that is wrong...but if I'm confronted with an armed intruder in my home, then I want my options to be better than equal to the intruder (s),...and in the real world, confronting force with force is usually the only option.

Since you hate weaponry and you loathe using force to solve problems, do you think Britain should have an armed military?

BBC is 24/7 propaganda, I was interviewed by a BBC Radio station, a heated conversation. They kept jumping the gun, saying I was against poor people- bullying 101. You can't talk to these people...
