raumdeuter: A gun for every nigerian ![]() ![]() ![]() if we had that many illegal guns in this country most of the posters on this thread would definitely have one. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by raumdeuter: 2:21pm |
BlueRayDick: The guns are already in the hands of people and they are not giving it back. Recently they busted a cache of weapons in Port Harcourt, When these criminals come, law enforcement most times will bot be there either intentionally or not So what happens next.. In the entire north we can't even count the numbers of guns |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by raumdeuter: 2:22pm |
GloriousGbola: How many guns do you think are in circulation currently? Ideally like BlueRayDick posted none. But in reality how many |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by GloriousGbola: 2:27pm |
raumdeuter: if there are 200 million guns in circulation in a nation of 200 million, then there will be areas in nigeria where guns are like pure water and everyone will have one . |

raumdeuter:Baba guns are not in circulation like that. I've never in my life seen a gun physically with someone that wasn't a soldier, police or some other paramilitary, won't be the same story for someone from Southern Kaduna for example, but you get my point, the guns no dey like that. The work involved in fixing our existing security issues is way less than the work involved in gun control in a country that's the poverty capital of the world. America's history of gun use has been in place since the founding of the country, and over the years the country has civilized itself around its use yet e still no easy for them like that with school shootings, gang violence, accidental gun deaths and all else. Now imagine what it'd be like for a country like Nigeria where our legislature is yet to make laws around some basic and obvious things, not to mention legislation then enforcement of whatever laws that'd be made around gun use. |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by raumdeuter: 2:36pm |
GloriousGbola: If not 200m then how many are in circulation? Definitely not zero |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 2:37pm |
raumdeuter:Not zero, but not enough to push for gun rights for all and sundry. |

Theflint1: Those that are on the receiving side of gun violence what should be done? Should they just wait for theor turn or intensify prayers like they've been doing since This na weekend by Monday we go don hear of some villages wiped out like we've been hearing for most of our lives |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by raumdeuter: 2:44pm |
Theflint1: That's because you've lived in areas that were peaceful. Ordinary inter communal clash, Na guns dem dey use count scores. My friends who lived Warri during the late 90s were not strange to guns I was in OAU during the Ife Modakeke wars and saw enough. Some of our fellow Jambite as dem bam finish na to find 3k to buy "Boulah" There is no school where they will bust cultists and not see guns Abi shey na covenant university you go? |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 2:47pm |
raumdeuter:Middle ground fit dey, something like civilian JTF is a middle ground, but then I don't see what stops the government from doing the job of protecting the citizens...Boko Haram, ISWAP and whatever else that's terrorizing people of certain parts of Nigeria is all part of government failure. The energy politicians put into suppressing reports of terrorist attacks should be channeled into providing funding and tackling the bottlenecks in the way of peace for these regions of the country where crime is now endemic. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 2:51pm |
raumdeuter:Na UNIBEN I go, but hostel, so maybe that was why. Ife Modakeke war has come and gone, there'd always be crime spurts but if government is doing their job of protecting citizens, we won't have violent crimes lingering. Countries in Europe, even Ghana for backyard here where they experience peace without democratizing gun use no get two heads, it's work that was put into creating and maintaining the peace they enjoy, let's put in that work and we sef would enjoy peace. America that's gun crazy still has some of the best police force in the world, democratizing gun use is not the solution to state failure. |
