Irish Pride - Part 2
In the first part of the Irish Pride, famos about how they became aware about not drinking when driving or not driving when drinking.
Ai in Brazil, we have taken the first step with the new law on alcohol and driving. Another thing we took our first step when we said NO to Referendum referendum on disarmament (thanks for the correction Lele) in 2005, but they are light years ahead of us.
Here, possession of a weapon is prohibited. No one can have a weapon, not even a policeman. The police walk the streets without any firearm.
This follows a move in Ireland in the 20s when it became independent, did not allow more civilians to own guns. At this time, after the war, when people could still fear some revenge, resume, or anything, the government enacted the ban.
Certainly there was much resistance, and that the movement really worked, it was established that whoever was'll meet with a firearm, could be sentenced to death.
It may not be a more democratic way to do this, but is more efficient.
Today, I do not believe that this law still in force, but in any event, it certainly is no longer necessary.
Without firearms, the only thing we have to fear are some vandals throughout the city. Fools are everywhere, but crazy, no firearms are much more controllable.
Congratulations to the Irish who can live without the futility of a weapon, win traumas of war, and finally, learn from your mistakes.
Hello! How is the first time I comment here on the blog, I would first congratulate and say that I love!
I always had plans to do something, but munca put in place [:)]
Well, on the post, I have only one installation is what we had in Brazil was not a plebiscite, the referendum was that it is a bit different (see google) and another is that I did not understand when you said we gave first step when it voted in NO. For indeed, the victory did not mean that the arms trade is still permitted in Brazil, then it changed bulhufas! hehe, that's right! Congratulations again for the initiative, very nice! Sucesso ai for you, or better, for us!
Abraço, lele.
only one link on the referendum http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Referendo_sobre_a_proibi% C3% A7% C3% A3o_da_comercializa% C3% A7% C3% A3o_de_armas_de_fogo_e_muni% C3% A7% C3% B5es
What has changed is that not just anyone can buy a gun, correct? So a security firm and the like, or people who use to survive.
Thanks for the correction.
Best regards,

Actually, no. hehe
Has not changed nadinha! If yes won, it would happen there that you said, but with the victory of the law does NOT change has been made and people can continue to purchase arms! Take a peek in that link that I spent out there in wikipedia!
Firearms are prohibited but, yet they continue robbing shops, restaurants and the like using axes, knives ...
I am totally against the sale of firearms. One thing that is built to kill should not even exist. Congratulations to the Irish assimilated That is, above all, a change of culture and consciousness.
