How many of you forgot about the Turkey airport attack already? Admit it.

Sad but true. And it's not PC but that one happened in Turkey which is essentially the Middle East -- how many hundreds died in the car bombs in Iraq this past week that CNN isn't doing 24/7 coverage of?

Remember the Bangladesh attack one? I only remember because they preempted Morgan Spurlock like 20 minutes in. Never seeing that episode.

He could have loaded up that truck with fertilizer before taking on his death-run.

Dude, shit that happens in the Middle East is their own shit. It's like how the Middle East doesn't give a shit about the domestic issues of the United States, like I dunno, Dylann Roof or Newtown.

Middle East terrorism and violence transplanted somewhere else where it doesn't belong? THat is news.

Jesus people. It's not guns, trucks, or any other possible method of killing fellow human beings that is the problem here. Fucked up people are the problem.

Guess what? The larger the human population becomes, the more we breed people with fucked up beliefs. It's just part and parcel of life; an unfortunate part, but one we have to deal with nevertheless.

So stop trying to make this political or about talking points of any one side. As the population increases it's only going to get worse and, ultimately, there isn't shit we can do about it short of eugenics and mental screening, which is another can of worms.

Nonsense. This has nothing to do with population. India and China have a larger population density than the Middle East. When is the last time you saw an Indian or Chinese terrorist?

If we are going to find a solution the first step is to define the problem. Population ain't it.

I think that overpopulation of a certain group might be to blame.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Hate speech removed. They take advantage of the 21st century socially liberal policies of other nations so they can enforce they can kill in the name of their 7th century ideology.

We've said it before and we'll say it again. Keep your hate speech out of here.

Not me. I want at least 2 more. I want Eiffel Tower to fall, crashed and burn.

So that France would actually do something.

Not really, I want peace but an overwhelming amount of people refuse to acknowledge the harsh and cold reality.



A guy kills 10 people with a hand gun. GUN CONTROL.
A guy kills 10 people with a car. No CAR CONTROL ?

See the hypocrisy there?

No I don't. A guns purpose is shooting, many sold in the US are designed to shoot people. A truck's purpose is to carry stuff sometimes even people. Again I'm plenty open to people owning guns but silly talk just makes me think well you're silly and not capable of explaining a better option.
Ps views on gun ownership are changing.

and a knife is designed for???

ban the guns as it is in europe
and then people will kill themselves with knives

the law in greece is so strict that if it is in your job description to have a knife anyone else with a knife is punished with law, gee with this law all in greece should have gone to jail lol including me i broke it many many times

and you know what??? people replaces knifes with something else
so where it will end??? if people want to use violence they will use it
the items of choice will be irrelevant.

and by the way the only reason you need a license permit to use a car or a truck it is because of the potential to kill people
yes car trucks are build to transfer people and cargo but it is sp easy to kill people that we used laws how to use them and the first one was to get a license.

You can kill someone with a pencil too. But how many people can you kill per second? How many people can you kill per second with a knife, truck, gun, a nuke?
I don't know how others feel about guns, but if I want to kill someone, my weapon of choice is always gun. Because that's what it's made for.

A knife is designed for cutting things, sometimes as a letter opener, sometimes to cut strings or a pesky vine in your yard, sometimes to spread butter or cut a yummy steak. Swords are made to kill people, switch blades are meant to be carried in your pocket and opened quickly to stab someone. Notice the latter two have no real purpose but to cut people. I'm not an expert in Greek weapon laws but I know in the US, even in most open carry states you can't walk around with swords or switch blades.

and do you think you need to kill all to take control of a country??

if you have only 10% of the population it is possible for that small part to make a coup and oppress the rest and keep it oppress.

and sometimes 1 single kill is better than 100 kills
in france a muslim went to the house of a rank policeman and killed him and his wife with a knife

another incident a muslim just killed a policeman in the corner

so if you want to kill 1 now 1 later even a pencil is more than enough

switch blades is greece is used by the farmers
it is safe to have around and they use it to cut things in the fields
so sswitchknifes are not to stub people only
switch knifes were created as a safer way to carry a knife when you are in outdoor activities

We'd call that a pocket knife in the US, its the same but different. You'd need two hands to open the blade with a pocket knife. Switch blades only need one hand to open.

we are not going to play with words and miss the picture
you use a knife to cut something
if that is something in your field or a human throat its up to you
its not the knifes problem

the problem is not in the item the problem is in the user
if the problem is in the item just punish the item
i use a knife to kill we punish the knife not me
maybe we put the knife life in prison?? or use capital punishment and melt it down lol

Your English is pretty good but I don't understand this if you're looking for me to say Greek weapon laws are burdensome or punish the wrong people I agree from the little I know of them. This is not saying anyone can own any weapon they want or trucks & steak knives should be banned.

I only speak English, I admire people who can speak more than one language.

sometimes i am like wtf why did they split P&N and ATOT into two separate forums because it used to be better with this forum being so much more active. but then there are threads like these where it reminds me as to why they did it and why it makes sense.

knife is not a weapon is a tool
its your choice if you turn it into a weapon

car is a tool but it is dangerous and lethal thats why we have laws on using it and you need a license to be allowed to drive one

the problem is not on the "what was used" the problem is on the who used it and why

thats why in britain where people can not get arms they have ore stabbing
would in Britain have more dead if they were free guns???? no they would not

stop blaming the items
blame the persons

what will be next stop producing fertilizer because it is used in bombs???

a person who want to kill people will find a way to kill them

Well, the fact that France conquered and colonized Algeria, Tunisia, Mali etc. may also have something to do with it. France has more citizens of North African/Arab descent than other European countries, even before Syrian immigrants came ashore.
Saw on TV that the truck driving killer was French and Tunisian.
