As a UK man living in a mostly gun-less society answer me this America. Why do civilians need guns like this?pic.twitter.com/O2tB65pTB3
The M134 General Electric Minigun is available to civilians. I get that America is full of crazed serial killers, In motels, with chain saws, with knives and in dreams. But wouldn't a hand-gun do for self-defence. Do you really need a gun that fires up to 166 times per secondpic.twitter.com/OkJj5gkjFD
The M134 Minigun is available to citizens of the USA and for the gentler sex fits comfortably (when dismantled) into two of these charming Chanel handbags. Fell Pretty and Safe with this combo, "Killa-filla"pic.twitter.com/BsznLbQyCY
The only guns you can get in Britain today are hunting rifles and shotguns, and even then they are heavily monitored and restricted. In the UK there have been zero school shooting since 2009. In the USA 288 since 2009.pic.twitter.com/JVW9d3eFWO
Rhys Milford Jones (27 September 1995 – 22 August 2007) was an English boy who was murdered in Liverpool at the age of 11 - This was such a big deal it was made into a mini-series. Every year, 7,782 children and teens are shot in the United States.pic.twitter.com/wKTdKiCzju
The U.S. is ranked 4th out of 34 developed nations for the highest incidence rate of homicides committed with a firearm. Mexico, Turkey, Estonia take the top three spots. The graphic below is interesting. Look how the USA red-line (GR) is much longer than the green line (NGR).pic.twitter.com/IFNeXio9Ye
On June 12, 2016, The weapons below, in the hands of just one man, killed 49 people and wounded 53. This was the 'Orlando nightclub shooting'.pic.twitter.com/oAbTeUtunT
I want to answer everyone but there are too many responses. I enjoy the varied opinions although I haven't much time for abusive and raging replies. Democracy is the balance that can be found somewhere between two opposing views and it is nice that democracy can survive Trump.pic.twitter.com/xChX6dQKZ3
'The Plot to Bring Down Britain’s Planes' is a documentary about the plot to blow up many airplanes flying out of Heathrow Airport using liquid bombs. 12 men were convicted. The police used no guns and the US counterparts could not believe this was possible.pic.twitter.com/r9kePWW0Is
If you can own a weapon that can shoot 166 rounds per second, a weapon of mass destruction, what other weapons should be legitimate private property?pic.twitter.com/TDhjol06qv
One common reply I received as to why someone needs a weapon like this is "a woman confronted with a leering 300lb rapist (not Trump) needs to defend herself." So as I understand it, in America there are many cases of women fighting off such assaults with these weapons. Correct?pic.twitter.com/qaz4lHQR02
The Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Dec14, 2012. Adam Lanza shot and killed 26 people, including 20 children between 6 and 7 years old, and 6 adult staff members. He used his mother's Bushmaster XM15-E2S rifle - all made in America.https://youtu.be/vHbLRf3C9KI
I never expected this tweet to cause so much debate but then again, in the UK there is no debate. I wasn't suggesting that guns should not be sold. What I am saying is surely there should be vetting of who owns a gun and what types of guns are sold.pic.twitter.com/xdKksir4cs
What does it all mean? The last time a tweet of mine made such an impression was when this official was caught 'firing' off a series of 'explosive' farts unaware that he had his MIC still on. https://twitter.com/PaulSteveSamuel/status/1228413300884504576?s=20 …pic.twitter.com/vhiITSy1x2
Kyle Rittenhouse A foolish boy took a deadly weapon into a situation where the probability of having to use that weapon was vastly increased by the volatility of that situation. The 'violent act' occurred when he set out; Like a drunk taking the wheel.pic.twitter.com/Yzx03gV2B1
The question I asked originally remains unanswered. Are these women replacing good character with the convenience of a weapon that kills people?pic.twitter.com/7Y52rLdNvX
To all of you who encouraged and to some degree goaded me to debate guns with @MrColionNoir , I gave him many options on various occasions to chat and although it is probably because he is very busy, he missed those opportunities. I tried my best.pic.twitter.com/GLH83fdS8f
The attack on the Capitol that gives encouragement to white supremacist groups like Boogaloo, Three percenters, Proud boys and other extreme Trump-MAGAs does not lend support to the ease of access to guns.pic.twitter.com/C9pQ1iMghf
Here's the essence of my issue with guns. The people who most want them are more likely to be the people who should least be trusted with them.pic.twitter.com/T2ORemQ2q4
Obviously the USA is a quite different country to the UK and if as TV and movies suggest the states are full of people like this then I get why everyone needs a gun.pic.twitter.com/ZpoKxR4PeG
With two mass shootings in a week and Sen. Ron Johnson claiming that only gun-armed civilians are dangerous isn't it time that there was stronger gun control?https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/03/23/boulder-shooting-multiple-casualties-including-police-officer/ …
Civilian AR-15s are clearly good for mass shootings. What else are they for? Do they (for example) fit neatly in a handbag or back pocket?pic.twitter.com/8HxecFNFPU
Given that gun folk don't want background checks should anyone be allowed to own a gun?pic.twitter.com/KWeaK40ri6

Why is this legal in America and what does she intend to do with the gun?pic.twitter.com/EabTH2pktH
No one is saying, 'give up your guns'. Just introduce rules on who gets them, how they use them and what guns are available. It's just common sense. Or are more parents doomed to mourn until their own end?pic.twitter.com/BSeqEUUNih
