By that definition ALL countries are socialist and all countries since
the beginning of time,.

Clearly your definition of socialism is different to that used by the
rest of the world

So, it's ok to come home from a war and blow away your family, but
keeping a handgun in order to protect your family, and property from
criminals is a bad thing, relegating one to the status of Nazis, or
pedophiles? You guys have a rather strange way of looking a things.

In Oregon, the transition is quite flat. Which adds to the shock
factor. I was totally amazed. I am used to such changes over several
hundred miles, or when altitude causes the changes more abruptly, but
the Oregon experience was quite unique in my experience. It felt like I
was in a southwestern desert area, like Arizona or New Mexico. I REALLY
didn't like it.

a fact, along with gun control (which didn't thankfully get into the
nonsense about "only people are dangerous, guns are not dangerous"
which is an attempt by the gun lobby to redefine language and logic)
that proves there is a lot for Americans to find different by leaving
their culture, however much the shape of mailboxes varies from state
to state.

Debars? Why debar it?

It seems a cross wall, bi-lateral, Gaza-Israel tourist exchange would
provide a great and dynamic cultural experience for all.

Lately the truly dynamic borders are those between Zimbabwe and South Africa.

the association of gun freedom with political freedom is a very
American notion based on their conception of their history. The
important things are to make sure your officer corps and police are
trained to have allegiance to other than a political figure and have
strong separation of judiciary, politics and media.

If Italy were to fall into a dictatorship under barleycorn it would be
because he owns the press and manipulates the judiciary, not because
ordinary citizens don't have pop guns in their lofts.

poison is difficult to apply in street crime, knives are up close

its a false definition only found in the US. Redistributive taxation
is a way of producing a fairer society. If you think the rich always
deserve to keep all their money have a look at banking.

socialism
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates
that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be
owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
 
In Marxism a transitional social state between the overthrow of
capitalism and the realization of Communism.

Communism
a theory or system of social organization in which all property is
vested in the community and each person contributes and receives
according to their ability and needs.

People outside of the US know all this.

virtually synonymous with socialism. After the break with communism in
the 1920s, however, social democratic parties were distinguished by
their commitment to parliamentary democracy and their moderate
programmes of social change. They gradually abandoned their commitment
to public ownership of industry (see nationalization), seeking instead
to make capitalist economies work in a fairer way by implementing
equality of opportunity and by using progressive taxation to provide
social security and welfare programmes for the poorer members of
society. Most Western societies since World War II have adopted social
democratic policies to some degree, with the Scandinavian countries
going furthest in this direction."

and how often does the home owners gun get taken from him and used

because the home owner has a gun, US gun ownership does not stop an
historically high murder rate. But I've had this debate before with US

It doesn't have to be an argument. Yes, you can learn by proxy, but
anything you know about British attitudes has to ultimately come from
speaking to British people, a pub is one of the places.

I agree BUT usually the first sign of a democracy going bad is the
removal of any means of the people being able to stop the process.

Freedoms are reduced and one of these is usually the removal of weapons
from the population. Though to be honest it is more the insecurity of
the politicians than any real chance of armed insurrection. Because if
it does get that far the population will find weapons anyway...
usually the military (all of them or some of them). Turkey is a good
example of this.

On the other hand the US gun culture is very different to most others I
have come across. Certainly very different to the UK

ROFL, that's how *English* evolved for gods sake, only Americans think
they are specially diverse or did something special with English while
everything in this thread proves in many areas there is an American
non diverse view of the world.

So different people have different requirements, meaning that blanket

inaccurate, in that they may, or may not, apply to you.
