Moravian comments on Mar 30, 2021:

Of course details of the future cannot be predicted but general trends can be forecast quite accurately, For example several people, including Bill gates forecast the current epidemic and the onset of climate change has been forecast for over 100 years. The problem is that we are more comfortable living in a state of denial.

Last week was the 25th anniversary of the Dunblane mass shooting. Gun ownership was severely curtailed and there has been one mass shooting since then in 2010 and deaths caused by firearms are very rare int he UK. Obviously the USA is a totally different case because of the gun culture and proliferation of guns in the country but if there was a will it could gradually change.

On the whole Danish people are sensible as well as happy so they do not have to be forced to have the vaccine. Almost 100% of people in care homes have had the vaccine. Deaths from Covid are at virtually zero unlike in the USA where they are still at a high level.

US death rate from guns is 203.5 times higher than in Japan. Why do you suppose that is?

Moravian comments on Mar 24, 2021:

Apparently there were seven mass shootings last week. It has to be exceptional to make the news now This is the suspect who was born in Syria so no doubt there will be attacks on people of middle eastern appearance. As Michael Moore says.

They had stuck the van in a ditch on the narrow country road. We all piled out and managed to manhandle the van on to the road. The Navy guys were profuse in their thanks as we probably saved them from an early return home.

Fast forward to WW2 where a POW camp was set up near the village where my friend's father worked on a farm. The German soldiers were sent out to work on local farms and the soldier who was sent to his farm turned out to be the son of the soldier he made friends with all those years ago. After the war the soldier went back to Germany and the two families kept in touch for years War, What is it good for ?. Fuck all !!

The answer is that because the country is not awash with guns we do not feel the need to be armed. There is no danger real or perceived so unlike the USA we do not have many murders by shooting,accidental shootings, suicides by shooting,Children shooting themselves or their parents etc etc. etc.
