    You must prove it was common knowledge he was doing something wrong when they knew him . You have failed.

    And that the US is far less safe than Europe (whatever its current terrorism issues) due to its insane gun worship

    The majority of firearm-related deaths are related to suicide. They will not be discussed here. Of the remaining thirty or so percent, the majority of those firearm-related deaths are committed by those who cannot, under any circumstances, legally possess, acquire, or use firearms in any way, shape, or form, because they have been convicted of disqualifying criminal offenses and had their constitutional rights severed under due process. Their continued illegal acquisition and use of firearms, committed simply because they are released into society where they can cause the greatest measure of harm, is really no different than the acid attacks in various European nations that may be cited on the part of yourself; both are completely illegal, but cannot be addressed by the implementation of more legislation.

    Jim Jones was a cult leader who spoke against st the bible, spoke glowingly of Marxism and communism. I do not find it surprising that California libs would flock to him and seek his help. I do how ever find it interesting that Carter and Mondale would look the other way. As early as 77 a year before Jonestown and a few month before left California report were coming out that there was abuse happening in the temple. This is a classic ends justify the means. If Ronald Reagan instead of Brown would have been praising him you libs would not have buried this.

    Now you see all you need to do is prove that. Should be easy. Verifiable references please.

    So if legislation doesn't work why then are you over 50 times more likely to be shot in the US than the UK ?

    Why was such the case even before the united kingdom implemented any significant firearm-related restrictions? Why did the united kingdom not have exceedingly high levels of firearm-related violence long before it implemented the various restrictions put into place in the late twentieth century?

    And why did the ratio os US to UK homicide rates degenerate from 10 :1, held for most of the 20th century, to the current 5:1 after the imposition of the draconian UK gun laws in 1996?

    What is the evidence being relied on for making such a claim?

    Are you suggesting more people are being shot since these restrictions have been in place ?

    The homicide rate for the city of London would not be higher than the homicide rate for the city of New York if such were not the case.

    Would there be fewer successful terrorist attacks, when said terrorists can be killed by their intended victims?

    More than have ever been successfully stopped in any nation in the European union or united kingdom.

    While on that subject, where are so many terrorists successfully acquiring large amounts of acid for use in their attacks? Why have these governments not successfully prohibited such substances in an effort to prevent future attacks from being carried out?
