Message | What state of crime in our country? When I look out my office window I do not see war torn streets. If I did, I would appeal to have guns removed entirely. Would not that then be the most erudite decision? |

Message | look at the crime rates on the region information, which we have kindly provided. And say again that we dont have a crime problem. http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewregion.php?regionid=123 http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewregion.php?regionid=120 http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewregion.php?regionid=121 http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewregion.php?regionid=122 South Vintalli being the only exception. These are the screens that should dictate our policies. And as crime is so high this should be dismissed and guns banned, as I have tried countless times due to these very facts. |
