Message	Why do people have a right to have guns? Why? Guns kill people, that is what they are for. They are tool designed by mankind to kill other humans. There is no need for the public to have them. People, and we include ourselves in this statement, get scared, they get irrational, they panic. They have prejudices and fears and worries and giving them guns will not help anyone.

Message	Guns defend people. Often the mere pointing of a gun at someone prevents harm coming to bear. Again I see the lefts ironic fear of prejudice obstucting progress.

To	Debating the Ratification of the Right to Bear Arms
Message	Your choice of Foreign Minister is an insult, the BNP, the real BNP that is, is made up of thugs and criminals. They are all either racists, fascists or idiots, thankfully they are so wonderfully inept at even the most basic level of government that whenever they do get elected anywwhere they last about two weeks and then have to quit because they can't do the job. Getting back to the issue, guns are not made for defence, they are made to kill people. If someone actually does shoot someone in their home it is more likely to be a family member than an intruder, so therefore the main reason most people have to own guns, to protect their family is obviously ridiculous.

Message	People also need guns to protect themselves from the Marxist-Leninist Party.

Message	The Bastiat Party is returning to unfair slurs against the MLCP.

Message	Ownership of arms is fine with us, as long as they are not used irresponsibly.

Message	We would like to see the Batiat's evidence that we have ever taken part in violent actions?

Message	We wonder why the MIP constantly leaps to the defence of a party whose aim is to establish a dictatorship.

To	Debating the Ratification of the Right to Bear Arms
Message	We wonder why the Bastiats now suddenly change the subject.

Date	12:44:20, March 24, 2006 CET
From	Modern Intellectual Party
To	Debating the Ratification of the Right to Bear Arms
Message	The MIP does not agree with thier ideas of dictatorship, but since they would find this legally impossible its not much of a concern, we are more worried about a party that uses every opportunity it has to discredit a rival party, claims of terrorism and violence that are totally unsubstantiated, I remember the last time that happened the Bastiat Party claimed that because the MLCP used a slogan in a foreign language that was evidence of terrorism.

Message	We don't go with treaties unless they fit perfectly. The second portion doesn't seem necessary.
