What part don't you see as human nature?

Specifically, what I had in mind were the officer's wielding of power, his road rage, and the investigating officer's finding that the offending officer was not at fault.

Cop resigned after he was caught on tape. What a dick.

You know, something like this had me pissed off at first considering road rage is something that demonstrates what happens when we take away a few "communicative devices" like body language and differences in "personal space" comfort levels, but....

All those cars jumped in front then applied their breaks TO A BUS

ROAD RAGE GANGNAM STYLE!!

Need to learn to read titles.

@chilaxe OK now I follow you.

When you evaluate something like the "average level" of muslims in denmark and compare with those in the US, you have to account for the selection process that happens before they even decide to come here or there. It's much easier to get into Denmark, even considering the somewhat draconic immigration policies, than it is to get into the US. The US, at least used to, import people of high academic standing and somewhat accomplished people, which heightens that average level. And in general, since you are not close to muslim countries, it's simply more costly for any given family to get over there in the first place, which already, naturally if you will, selects higher level people to move over there.


The weapons issue does depend on numbers, but you must be careful not to look too shortsighted at them.

If people have ready access to concealed carry weapons, it would be easier for "bad guys" to get these weapons as well - just because there would be more guns in circulation. Guns can be stolen too, sold, lost etc.

If everyone has a gun on them, to take it to an extreme, some people would be made quite nervous by it, and they might even accidentally shoot someone if they thought they needed to defend themselves - everywhere would become like a slum, where you have to be super careful about going about your business.

If you carry a weapon, proper training is pretty important. The video above has the situation quite biased against the amateurs, but still they do show how little they can handle their weapons and the situation. It's not just a point and click interface as the games would have you believe.

Bar fights would/could end poorly.

Road rage incidents would/could end poorly.

Random people, say in protest rallies, would have an opportunity to shoot at people they disagreed with (imagine anti-nazi protests, people fucking hate those guys).

Bad incidents with cops might leave you with a cop down or you down, since the cops have to be even more careful since they're on the fringe of "dangerous territory" already - if everyone has guns, being a cop just got waay more dangerous.

My point is that you can't simply look at how many concealed weapons are used in robberies, violent crimes etc now, because there are indirect sources as well.


I don't want to remove weapons alltogether, I just want them better regulated, better controller and limited where they are not needed. In a civilized society, they are not needed.

@Xaielao i think @Quadrophonic's comment would be good advice for your friend. In no way intending to downplay that horrible situation you were in, i'd have been terrified. I'm just of the opinion that it's safer for "none" of us to carry than for "all" of us to carry.

There's another argument i find quite compelling though - the people who live in nice houses, own guns and keep them safely locked up put up fantastic arguments for why guns are safe and all the positive reasons for safely owning a gun. The problem is as we all know (from road rage, from nasty neighbours, bullying etc.) that the world is full of utter idiots at the best of times, and do you really want all of those people having the same "right" to own a gun as you, who keeps it responsibly and maturely?

Responsibility and maturity once in possession of a gun is OPTIONAL. I'm very glad that a lot of enthusiasts are responsible and mature with firearms, but for every one of those, there can be 100 others who keep it unhidden, or hidden poorly, which then opens up the potential for disaster even further (getting it stolen, kids finding it, whatever).

Or is it simply a case of - but if i have one, i'm ok........as long as i can see the danger, and see it soon enough to react, and not make a mistake when i react because i'm very aware everyone is armed.......etc.
