Why doesn't that surprise me?

As a law abiding citizen, I can use deadly force to protect myself.

Whether that force comes from a barrel of a gun or by dropping a gun-less gun safe on said same asshole's head doesn't matter.

It's your life. You know, kill or be killed.

Get creative.

You don't have a remote clue of what you're even talking about.

I should have known better than to start another discussion with you which ends with you saying "You're wrong and I'm right" with absolutely nothing to support your "opinion".

Here is an article from http://www.businessweek.com/stories/...nancial-advice as to why Russia is so violent.
Please not how often the author refers to economic factors as being the main reason why violence in
Russia is so high.


Why is Russia so violent?


Relatively high rates of violent crime are common in mid-income countries such as Russia, Brazil, and Mexico, where rapid economic change coexists with poverty, inequality, and social problems.


It's clear that the major social and economic changes of the last two decades have had a major impact on Russian crime rates, including violent crimes. The crime rate doubled between the mid-1980s and mid-1990s, when Russia was in the throes of its transition from the Soviet system to a market economy. Criminologists believe that the social problems associated with the transition, such as rising alcoholism and drug addiction, and strains on family life caused by economic difficulties, explain the sharp increase in violent crimes.


The 1990s also saw the emergence of business-related violence and organized crime. But these represent a relatively small share of all violence in Russia, which is mainly the result of domestic disputes. In a country long known for its love of hard liquor, alcohol abuse is a major factor, contributing to around two-thirds of all Russia's murders. When former President Gorbachev briefly restricted alcohol sales in the late 1980s, the rate of violent crime fell dramatically.


If the Russian crime wave of the late '80s and early '90s coincided with economic recession, then the latest rise is taking place against a background of strong economic growth. That may well provide a clue as to why the crime rate is shooting up again. As ever more Russians acquire expensive modern gadgets such as cars, laptops, and mobile phones, there is no doubt a lot more around to steal, and more incentive to report crimes.


Criminologists say that a trend toward less violent crime and more property crime, together with an overall increase in the crime rate, is normal as a country's level of income rises. In that sense, crime in Russia may be beginning to resemble crime in the developed world.

If you continue to disagree, fine. How about this time you explain "why" the author and I are wrong.

Live long and prosper.

wait .. WHAT ??? who gives a fuck how violent Russia is? YOU said the US was the most violent .. so prove it.

CIA World Factbook says you're wrong, Speedy.

Japan

Ethnic groups: Japanese 98.5%, Koreans 0.5%, Chinese 0.4%, other 0.6%

Germany

note: a separate listing for Hispanic is not included because the US Census Bureau considers Hispanic to mean persons of Spanish/Hispanic/Latino origin including those of Mexican, Cuban, Puerto Rican, Dominican Republic, Spanish, and Central or South American origin living in the US who may be of any race or ethnic group (white, black, Asian, etc.); about 15.1% of the total US population is Hispanic

IDIOT. Demographics are made up of SEVERAL criteria. Countries do NOT have to match ALL criteria to be deemed similar. Using your limited criteria, the U.S. is not similar to ANY other country in the world, not even Canada. IDIOT.

Tell me what demographics we share with Chile, Cuba, Aruba, Liberia, Uzbekistan, Timor, Vietnam, India, Iran, Maldives, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Yemen? NONE!! Yet these are the countries with very similar homicide rates per capita as the U.S.

Now what demographics do we share with countries like the U.K., Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Denmark, France, Canada, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore. Sweden, and Norway, to name a few? Very similar strong economies and high education levels. Yet our homicide rates per capita are a minimum of 2x any of those countries.

I realize that you will be unlikely be able to understand this valid comparison which is why you've earned the title as the dumbest person on this board.

Now let's heard WHY you conside such a comparison invalid.

IDIOT.

Do you revel in your stupidity or is it just so natural that you shrug it off and don't realize how lame your arguments are?

You're the one with the "lame arguments" that wither and sluff away under the glow of facts, Speedy.

[Yssup Rider]

No. YOU ARE!

BTW -- what kind of demography considers Hispanic as white?

How long did it take you to find a report that made your stupid bullshit seem legit?

KEEP LOOKING!

As I said, you wouldn't be able to comprehend it since you are the dumbest person on this board.

Maybe if you're lucky the AG of Wyoming will try to bring another lawsuit before the SCOTUS trying to invalidate all states laws regarding concealed carry requirements.Where do you stand on that one? Have you come to the realization that YOU LOST?

According to the CIA, and most other legitimate and credible sources, "Hispanics" come in every skin color known to man: including "white", you lying, hypocritical, racist, cum-gobbling golem fucktard, HDDB, DEM. BTW, "hasa diga!

According to a SC ruling, the 14th Amendment means the states cannot abridge rights guaranteed by the 2nd -- or any other --Amendment, Speedy.

YOU LOST. States have been doing it since almost the day the Bill of Rights was enacted and the courts, all the way up to SCOTUS, have declared MOST of the laws constitutional. YOU LOST.

You equivocate and conceded ("YOU LOST") at "MOST", Speedy!

BTW, Speedy, the 14th Amendment wasn't part of the Bill of Rights and the Supreme Court's interpretation of how the 14th Amendment imposed the Bill of Rights on states came long after the Bill of Rights were enacted. Just a FYI, Speedy, for your edification.
