Comparing Australia and USA as far as gun laws/bans go is like comparing apples to orangutans.
...........
I'm not here for a debate, but this uber liberal circle jerk in basically every thread is hysterical.
Not just Australia. The (almost) rest of the world has more strict gun laws. And the rest of the world doesn't have a Mass Shooting epidemic. USA does. Bump stocks should be banned. Not because there is no other way to hack a gun to make it auto fire.. You can wear down a sear and make it shoot automatically. That's not the point. You don't only outlaw things that are impossible to get otherwise, there is a black market for everything in every country.
Regarding liberal circle jerk. What makes this a left right issue?? I am politically right/conservative and I think gun laws need a major major overhaul.
I couldn't go fishing in Gatlinburg when i visited there this year because i didn't have a licence. Yet i could walk into Walmart and buy a gun. Even FISHING is regulated more heavily in the USA than guns.

It's an extra tournament we get to watch, more competitive football for us
And added bonus another (easier?) path to the Euro
There is literally zero negatives about this tournament, i'm excited
-
literally any other team would have been better
we drew the hardest team in the pot. Having said that Italy was the close second in the pot but still easier than Croatia
-
Nothing competitive 'till the UEFA nations league after the WC
-
Yeah may have been tit for tat. They quietened as the anthem went on. I have it in my mind that some of the elders in the crowd went around whacking the kids booing with pandofles to make them shut up
ANYWAYS - My favorite thio married a Croatian and i have massive respect for that family and for all Croatians and literally any other person. Do unto others what you would have them do to you

I just watched the game back for the purpose of listening to the booing.
You are right there was some. I started watching the game today towards the end of the Cro. anthem and didnt hear the booing as it had quietened significantly.
I noticed during your minute of silence for a player that had died was interrupted by your fans as well. (they started to whistle etc then quietened after a second just before the silence ended)
I also found this strange and disrespectful
-
same goes to the idiots booing our anthem

If i was in the stands and someone started booing during the Croatian anthem near me i would have clean slapped him across his face. Fvkcing disgrace

i'm sorry we booed each other's national anthems.
We booed your anthem?

Skibbe is not the problem,
The real problem is our talent pool / depth and our best players from those positions being out in the first leg against Croatia.
If the first leg ended 1-1 then we go through today and i believe 1-1 was an achievable score in Croatia will a fully healthy and no suspensions. Actually with Donis in the mix and all our regulars starting i think we win in Croatia

I would agree to disagree. Classy keep watching the game, the croats are playing. Classy with the flopping and actions.
I didn't say the Croats were classy I said it is not classy for our fans to boo the Anthem of another country.
NO MATTER WHO WE PLAY

We just have to sit down and workout a team that can actually score goals. We are so shot shy it's unreal!
the formula should be, Feed Mitroglou
If he gets service he scores.

Against Ivory Coast in Brazil? That's about it.
and everyone even complained about that, all my non Greek mates said that it was never a penalty.
No one gives Greece a fair go. Even after we win the Euro everyone said only negative things.
On that note, how about this Scottish commentator and his sly remarks about our team? He said that the fans cheering about the (brilliant tbh) overhead kick clearance and said what good is that why are they cheering
Fk of you tosser you wish your Scottish national team had a player like Manolas and could do that.
THis game is evidence of how HUGE losing Manolas was in the first leg.
Would have been a whole different game (and of course Torosidis)

if Socratis scores on that volley this game would be so different

I missed the national atheams did they boo the croats ? Would be fitting as they did ours
They did not
And so they shoudn't
Unclassy as FK dont stoop to that level
-
another stat
we have never lost a 2 leg playoff for a major tournament
-
we needed the stadium packed out.
The atmosphere would have been a massive part of a good start if we were to have one.
-
the addition of Torosidis alone will change our team substantially
Maybe not 3-0 enough but we wont concede 4 goals today. Maybe 1
-
No. It is worth 1 goal
But in the case of a tie aggregate, the winner goes to the team with more away goals
-
Yeah, that header from Mitro would have made it 4-2 and we would be looking at the prospect of a 2-0 win tomorrow or even 3-1 win would be enough
2-0 almost sounds easy compared to 3-0
I dunno, the only hope i think we have is a very very early goal (similar to how Croatia scored against us)
You get one early then suddenly you have 70-80 mins for 2 goals

If the Pirates can go up 2-0 in regular time, it could go to extra time and maybe penalties. 3-0 would be better, as would 5-0 - in our way.
if the game ends GRE 2 - 0 CRO then Croatia goes through with 1 more goal on aggregate
-
3-0 isn't impossible
but it might be the biggest miracle since Euro 2004

if Mitroglou had pounced on that chance when papa crossed the ball across the face of goal after mitro's header, the game ends 4-2 and the Athens game is a little more meaningful
But 4-1 is a mountain to climb and that is understatement of the year

Another Mass Shooting in the US
in Let's talk about this
Posted
'Not ever in history was there a bump stock used in a shooting, but NOW they're a problem'
That is how the law works. Before 500 people were shot with a gun that had a bump stock, you're right, they weren't a problem. They shouldn't have been approved by the Obama administration though. OK so let's not compare USA to 'countries like Australia'.
Since you admit yourself that you are willing to discuss mass/spree shooting and solving the problem, what do you think the problem is and in your opinion how can we solve it? Also, why are gun regulations out of the question? Why can't we change gun laws to help solve this problem?
I think that most spree shooters are either prescribed and on medication or have been diagnosed with mental health problems etc. Which is why I will restate my original viewpoint. In New Zealand (omg i didnt say Australia) you can legally purchase FULLY AUTOMATIC weapons. They do not regulate the weapon they regulate the person. Every person needs to have a mental health check and get a gun licence for the kind of gun they aspire to purchase. For instance, a single barrel beak-open shotgun would be a lower tier and easier to acquire licence than say a fully automatic rifle or even a semi auto rifle. This is what i think the USA needs. Yes, people will still get illegal guns and cause shootings. But at least the blood wont be on all your hands for not trying to do something. Right now, people sit back with a soda in one hand, pizza slice in the other, AK47 on their lap, watching churches and schools getting shot up by people with mental illnesses using high powered rifles and saying "damn that's horrible but they aint comin after my gun". In a way the blood is on your hands.
