    Moshe, on page 13 here, you cited some population statistics for Salford and the UK as a whole.

    What point were you making there, please?

    I think in these situations one has to look at all mitigating psychological and social behavioral circumstances to what makes

    these people commit planed massacres such as what has been happening recently.

    There are many tell tale ingredients in making up a psychological profile of these individuals.

    Certainly the accessibility to hand guns alone is not the complete answer.

    Simon implied he came from a tough neighborhood in the UK. Looks like Iowa to me.

    Yes, Salford is in the industrial north, but no longer the deprived town it once was. It's been massively modernised and developed and a large part of the BBC has relocated there.

    Still, I wondered why you posted stats about the ethnicity of the population?

    It would be interesting to hear by the pro-gun advocates on what should be done to heed this on going of shooting massacres in public places ?

    Right to bear 18th century style black powder musket loaders. That is technically what it should mean. Fire power that was around at the time the 2 bill of rights was penned.

    done to heed it? Not sure I understand the question. Happy to answer, I just want to make sure I completely understand what you are asking before I answer.

    That is technically what it should mean.

    It says "arms", not "arms that exist today". Today, arms are not the same as they were. Should the 1st amendment only apply to methods of speech and religions of the time also?

    So since it doesn't have the qualifier "Exisiting today" does that mean no limit?
