Curious, but what country do you live in?


Also, I find it disappointing how many European nations are against guns. Never thought people would have such a big issue with protecting themselves. I wonder if crime and rape rates would decrease if guns were more tolerable in Europe.

I hope that Centeral and Eastern Europeans unite against the Germans and put them in their place! Whenever Germany runs the show, they always create a mess! Hopefully the smaller remaining EU nations can hold their weight, but we'll have to see.

EU now = 4th Riech

lol. Germany gonna do whatever they want. 



psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

I know, but without the UK we are helpless against the leftists. Poland and Hungary can't possibly balance what Germany does together with Benelux and France. My God...

Europe as a whole has much lower crime rates then US though.

Seeing that crime rate overall is half of the US and rape rates are a third of the US in germany and france alone, so rates lowering with the introduction of guns is doubtful. Scandinavia and Spain have even better rates.

The easy answer is: People feel safe on the streets without guns. There's no need to 'protect themselves' in their perception.

51% to 49%, can such a huge decision be made with only a 2% difference?
Might as well have been a coin toss.

Throughout the Brexit campaign, Leave’s message of seizing back control captured the imagination of mostly older, rural voters. Younger, more urban Britons strongly favoured Remain, many citing the freedom to work anywhere in the union.

Adding to the array of unknowns, a geographic quagmire that could yet send the United Kingdom into a new spasm of disunity — Scotland and Northern Ireland, by significant majorities, each voted to Remain, while England and Wales voted Leave. The dissonance was already triggering a reawakening of the still-potent Scottish independence movement last night, with separatists urging a new referendum on Scotland departing from Britain to rejoin Europe.

Goodluck with that.

Nothern Ireland and Scottish nationalists are already basically looking into their own referendums. This will pretty much lead to a domino effect where the UK is basically no more.

Good. Hopefully an economic crash happens again and I can buy cheap stock.

I'm not really sure if this is a good idea...

Also we've not left the EU yet. It was a vote asking if people were up to the idea. If we do leave it won't be for another 4 years or so no doubt. But it will be interesting to see if this is merely the catalyst for additional activity from Euroskeptic countries.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Huh. So my understanding of this, is that this is the beginning of World War 3?



Good this means more power to germany and less Anglo American influence in europe which was the orginal idea in the first place.
I hope this also means i have to import less games from UK and can buy more games locally for a cheaper euro adjusted price



Britain leaving is the start of a new revolution ...

The British pound basically just collapsed to the lowest level to the US dollar since 1971, lol.

Really, please tell me what's the value of the GBP at the time of writing of your post?
