Defenseless Victim Zones aka “Gun Free” Zones.

Have you ever thought of the fact that guns aren’t the only thing that you could use in a fight/instance of you being robbed?
Seriously, there are such things as: Self Defense Classes, Martial Arts, Kicking Them in The Genitals, and Running Away Like a Pussy.

The real thing you should use is a fire extinguisher, every building needs to have one, and I guarantee you, if someone’s being sprayed with carbon dioxide or dry chemicals, they probably won’t be able to shoot. Also getting hit with a fire extinguisher hurts.
Not as much as getting hit with a fire axe, but still a lot.

The only classrooms that have fire extinguishers in them are the science classrooms.

Fire extinguishers are great, you can easily suffocate an aggressor, but since you have to get pretty close you still run a high likelihood of getting shot, as you can’t really use it from cover. Martial Arts, wrestling, etc. are a great thing to have, but again, distance, not to mention ability; some of us aren’t in the best of shape, and more still aren’t physically aggressive enough to want to take the time to become proficient enough to disarm the gunman. Running is only an option if A) You’re reasonably athletic, and/or B) You actually have somewhere to run to; if you run into a locked door and nowhere else to go you could be Eric Liddell and still die. The cops use guns to stop badguys, so why wouldn’t you?

Anywhore, yes, back on topic.

In Australia, you need a “Genuine Reason” to own rimfire rifles or shitty shotguns, a “Genuine Need” for centerfire or good shotguns, and pistols need a target shooting license and a year of probation. Of course, you can own just about any gun you want if you register it and have it rendered permanently inoperable, which defeats half the point of guns.

You know you’ve played too much Cata when you’re honestly a little worried about the primary school down the street.

How’s this for a “good reason”: My life is precious to me, it’s the only one I have, and I have the Human Right to use the most effective means in existence to protect it.
I genuinely sympathize for all of you who live in countries which place your life below that of criminals in that they demand that you die rather than defend yourself. There are some countries you could move to where, even though you may not be able to own the best guns for self defense, the government there at least acknowledges your right to use the guns you can have to protect your life and property. Of course, being an American, I’d personally recommend moving to America.
Most states have relatively few restrictions on guns and other items that aren’t NFA regulated(and we’re working on eliminating that as well), and many states have some form of Castle Doctrine or Stand Your Ground laws, which means that you have the right to defend yourself with whatever means necessary.
Sure, we have a commie raghead in the White House, but that will change.

Last thing I’m saying on this, but if someone is threatening you with death, then you are actually allowed to respond with force. At least over here.

It’s not so bad, you don’t hear about too many shootings, most criminals are limited to using knives or pipe guns, and unless you’re in Bankstown or the shitty part of Melbourne you VERY rarely even get rolled by guys with knives. Genuine Reason/Need is really only for large weapons anyway, and if you’re a farmer you can apply for Genuine Reason/Need license to cover wildlife culls. It’s a civic service down in Tasmania, because the Devils have INFECTIOUS CANCER, so they’ll hand out licenses to anyone in a rural area willing to go out and put the sods out of their misery. The state rarely follows up on keeping Genuines up to date too. As it stands, I’m certified to use and own a pistol, but I don’t see any particular need to carry, I’d be uncomfortable having one on me most of the time anyway.

-You begin to consider purchasing a military grade weapon and mounting it on the front hood of your car.

-You look at other people’s cars as resources to disassble and attach to your truck.

-You get arrested for buying grocerys while carrying a shotgun.

-You stant up from the sheer amount of junk you carry around in serveral backpacks and rucksacks.

i have to carry around a 20 lb back pack filled with junk to school, which may not seem like much but i can almost guarantee you that it is the heaviest backpack in my school, or at least of all the sophomores.
