    So you have 30 guns. 2 questions:

    1. Why on earth do you need to carry three of them? You've only got two hands. Doesn't it weigh you down?

    2. Do you agree with the Maga kiddie that innocent Yanks {including school kids} getting shot is a price worth paying for your right to arm bears?

    I don't think he means he carries all 3 at the same time. Options

    So because you've never seen a school shooting, they don't happen despite the papers reporting them every few months?

    This is my point. I'd rather not live in a country where kids get shot in school. Or where people giving a political speech get shot by someone who disagrees with them. I don't think that is a price worth paying to protect me from an overbearing state.

    And you don't need to show a gun to stop someone battering their GF. I find a can of Spesh in a plastic bag works just as well. Dealt with two muggers on the South Circular by Brixton Hill who threatened me with a knife using that. I was coming back from the offie and had a four-pack in my bag. "Your knife has a range of a few inches beyond your arm, mate. My Spesh in a bag adds over a foot to my range and if it connects with your head, I'll floor you. So I suggest you feck off back up the hill."

    You like guns, I like Spesh. To quote Danny the drug dealer in Withnail & I "Why trust one drug and not the other? That's politics, innit?"

    I don't want to speak for the Chief but I guess part of his answer would be that his muggers would probably be carrying a gun. You don't take a can of special brew to a gun fight....

    And why special, anyway? You weren't a Super T man?

    Ah, gotcha. So it is like girls and shoes.

    I agree with you that it seems impossible to ban guns there given how many they have. But I'd rather not live in a country where kids get shot at school. If no-one had guns, no-one would get shot. That is a simple statement of fact.

    Of course. But you have to bear in mind that you would think that. You're British. I've never even held a gun. They are completely alien to our way of life.

    This isn't true in America. They see it in the reverse- if that guy has a gun, I need one.

    It's a conversation between two different realities. I am far happier with ours, but I don't have to live in theirs.

    You are of course correct about the dysfunction in their politics. But we are hardly in a place to criticise that. Look at that ****ing bull**** in London at the weekend.

    Knives, hammers, etc. It's not the gun that kills people, it's the person pulling the trigger. Unfortunately, with a larger population you will have more lunatics. Thing is 20 years ago, these nutters would have been locked up or not allowed to be such entitled bitches that think the world owes them a ****ing favour.

    I do accept that given our club's history, we can't really moan about our fans like the Chief having guns. I think he should get a c.1900 3" field gun like the won we have on our badge. He could tow it behind his car.

    Genuine question - are they allowed to own field artillery? I mean, they have these bump stocks that turns a semi-automatic rifle into what's effectively a machine gun. That nutter used that when he killed about 50 people at a gig in Vegas. It would be safer for the Yanks if they banned the bump stocks and allowed them to have field artillery pieces instead. You wouldn't be able to get it up in the hotel lift for a start, so they'd have to start their killing sprees from the car park which would make it easier for the cops to catch them. It would be harder to load one single-handedly in a school corridor as well. Give the kids more time to leg it. And it would have a greater chance of taking out an Apache gunship full of redcoats than an AR15 would.

    I am a fan of the old cannon, civil war era....

    Although I guess my great, great, great grandfather wasn't. He was at the charge of the light brigade......
