Well, the UN says over 70% of illegal firearms in West Africa are in Nigeria....

Firearm acquisition is such an onerous task, yet, bandits/criminals brandish sophisticated firearms with which they maim and kill citizens.

isn't it ironic?

Zuluhead:
you can have a pump action or double barrel lincense gun.

not anymore sir.

When Buhari came he withdrew that

Explorers:
Incredible footage showing the moment a Georgia woman rushed out of her bed in the middle of the night and opened fire at three armed men who broke into her house, killing one.

The surveillance footage, released by the Gwinnett County Police Department, shows the intruders all of whom are carrying guns bursting through the front door.

This woman her name should be called 'branches'

I saw this scary video on twitter yesterday evening and i couldn't sleep all night. Even though my family is all i have.

What would have happened to the family/occupants of that building if those animals were able to breakdown that strong front door(robbed, raped, murdered)

Imagine there're toddlers/kids, teenagers(girls), pregnant woman, person(s) with HPB, just imagine you're behind that door watching the CCTV, unarmed with something or nothing to give as they were scaling the fence with their long matchete

No 911 to dial.....

They cannot go to our leaders homes because they know they're well guarded/protected.

What about us? They don't care, but we voted them into power/office.

So sad that masses are always the victim of attacks like these(not only robbery) because they know we're not armed and there's no way we can fight back or defend ourselves and families.

They are also aware that rescue/police won't respond in 30mins - 1hr.

from my exchange with you weeks ago I thought you were anti-gun, now you've seen the essence. Even the 911 won't come immediately, in the US it takes an average of 15 minutes, note that this is average some cities take much longer, 5 seconds is enough for a criminal to inflict bodily harm on an unarmed person not to talk of 15 minutes and that is in a country where things are a lot better than here.


I'm glad you're seeing things from this point of view, I hope the government consider their fellow countrymen and use their heads for ones. Guns for security and self defense at home are a necessity

senatordave1:
Mourinhi is better than failure Wenger by far.

Sir Ferguson
Guardiola
Mourinho
Wenger

some of you are high, you don't even understand the question being asked.

The question is who is a better manager in premier league, nobody cares about Mourinho's exploits elsewhere. The only person above Wenger is Ferguson.

starbuck:
Why don't we have this kind of people in Nigeria ... Government above government

Are you out of your senses?

Deadly drug dealers that kill in large number and terrorise the entire city they reside in ?

Why aren't you comfortable with boko haram since you now want drug dealers?

Kennitrust:
With all these nonsense, one could support the bills against fake news.

Freedom of speech is not freedom of destruction na.




This just the reason journalist doesn't have respect anymore.

oga so you believe that access bank has not sacked or closed branches?

Oga I was at a branch yesterday we were told they've been shutdown and we were redirected to other branches, am at one of the ones we were redirected to, the crowd is too much because other branches have been closed

Explorers:
We're talking about rounds here.

AR-15 can fire over 100 rounds in 20seconds with high capacity magazines.

The regular magazines of AR15 holds around 30 bullets, a shooter can carry 10-20 magazines at a time. That's around 600 rounds.


Shotguns hold 5-10 rounds in the barrel at a time. When you're out, you need to reload which can take several seconds.

So how many people can you kill with shotgun? Forget movies, you can even kill more people with sem-auto handguns than shotguns.


Finally, shotguns are for close range, 50meters.

AR-15 range is around 400metres - 600metres.

I didn't reference movies though, moreover movies will have you believe ar-15s are deadlier after all they appears to be very badass guns.

You're right about the range, but most mass shooters are never 400 meters away from their targets, infact anyone that wants to record a high number of kill will advoid unnecessary distance.

Now about rounds yes, the normal ar-15 magazine can carry many bullets than say a short gun, but do you know in Canada for decades there has been a limited number of bullet that every gun magazine can have? if I recall rightly it is a maximum of 10 rounds, violation of that is a gross criminal offense.

So the same limitation you get with a short gun you will also have with the AR, at least in Canada.

Moreover, what most people are intentionally avoiding which is the most important factor is that the guns used for these crimes are illegally gotten, they're bought from the black market, any such illegally gotten guns will never meet any of the requirements such as limitation of ammo etc, or being coverted to semi-auto from automatic.

so how will they stop criminals from getting guns from their ever willing sources?

Explorers:
Is a matter of time.

I follow lots of gun channels and forums and I can tell you any attempt at forcefully doing so will result in another civil war.

If you follow their forums, you'll see they brag about it a lot, they'd rather go to war than you take away their right to bear arms

Explorers:
I see this happening in the United States someday. Citizens/Civilians will have the right to carry arms, but just handguns, shotguns, and some light rifles.

Assault rifles, military grade weapons will be taken away, is a matter of time.

fun fact many shotguns are deadlier than the AR 15 with a much higher force that can penetrate more two people and still penetrate a wall.

The truth is most of all these gun laws aren't really to protect citizens, it's all politics.

mumu country, not like this will stop mass shootings if the individual really wants to kill people, afterall the last guy did not commit the crime with licensed/registered gun. He committed the crime with illegally gotten guns, so I don't know what these leftist politicians are running about for.

If they cam find a way to stop criminals from illegally getting guns then I'll take them seriously

Nigerians have not survived the pandemic, some people are bothering theirselves over an election that will take places years from now

I was also doing a research on the Oak tree though not looking for the Yoruba name, I saw this article https://funfactoday.com/nature-facts/the-oak-tree/
Quite exposed me to somethings I never knew about the tree and it's long age.

An interesting thread really

timay:
It's called Maximum security prison for a reason

It's not all those minimum security prisons for White collar crimes and civil/minor crimes were the Guards even walk about with small weapons and batons, or no weapons at all other than a stun gun.

This maximum security ehhn, the guards are heavily armed 24/7 as if they are in a war zone. Because the prison is full of very violent criminals

and very ready to squeeze the trigger oh

seankafor:
let me tell you one thing about gang members( not the usual street urchins called cultist in Nigeria or Africa).

These guys have intels,spies, and men in top tiers even in the so called military and police..

You know why the police bursting these guys or engaging them wear balaclavas and face masks? Because if they blow their cover, they might not be the one to pay but their families and loved ones.
These guys eats and breathes violence..

Let me tell you one thing and you can sure take it to the bank..

The military nore those police arent the ones stopping them from mass revolting.. it's the settings and protocols involved in keeping them.
I bet you if these guys should all allowed to cluster and gather together for a day to reason am, make I see wetin wey no go make them mob those policemen.

bro you think this is a movie?

Bro, rioting will be the last thing on their mind because they know the consequences bro, irrespective of whether they cluster for a day or not, looking at those pictures they're already clustered, remember the topic is about the prison not observing social distancing.

If the government never cared about getting them to observe social distancing is it the easy task of shooting them to death will very little resistance that they will find hard to do?

They are members of tough gangs the more reason the government has the place well armed, guards guarding this prison from top to bottom and outside are armed to the teeth bro.
No think am

timay:
You dey mind the guy

He doesn't know that that's a maximum security prison were the worse scum are kept. The army will just use them to perfect their shooting skills by using them for target practice.

abi na.

e weak me, the other one come dey write long epistle. I dey look am,

Shibaraba:
If you're hungry ask, or send your account number. People will help. Don't let your hunger show by spilling vile. I made my analysis, make your own and shut the hell up.

Now go for Thanksgiving. I replied you.

What's the relationship between my response and hunger?

Bro not everybody is hungry and begging for alms, and no I won't resort to returning the same broke shaming back to you.


If you're smart enough and even barely read the OP, you won't have made that stu.pi.d analysis in a bid to sound intelligent.


You're a big joke

seankafor:
Why cant the gangsters mob and riot.. ?

Mob riot?.
Boss are you serious?


The guys that are armed with enough ammo will have a field day before outside help comes to evetually send the remaining over to the other side.


They're gang members and have already thought of this, so bro, they know better.

Shibaraba:
Take a good look at the pictures. See how many the prisoners are. How many guards... . Small. If the prisoners vex I swear with collective effort dem go bring the prison down. So why are they subdued. Because of the word... Prisoner. They know they are paying for their crimes. Plus they know one day they will be allowed to leave.

This is how our leaders treat us, but in our case, we don't know what we did, and we don't know when we will be free. Still on still we cant collectively fight against this tyranny and oppression. Test kits, common test kits no dey. In a country flowing with milk and honey.
Even the vulture suya man Don pack load. Hopefully hunger from lock down Don reset his putrefying brain

Sorry for derailing the thread but na so the picture move me. Well-done explorers.

your analysis is bullshi..t.



if they attempt what you said there, there will be mass shooting that will leave them all dead. It's like you don't know how prisons are built and fortified?

The thing holding them is not the word/tag/name prisoner but rather the force that's ready to take their life without any remorse.

These are gang members, do you think those making sure they're not out of there are kids?

Oga even from outside you can't easily break in and rescue them not to talk of those inside that already have their arms tied to their backs...

You can pass a message without making meaningless analysis.

gidgiddy:
Orji remains the only man in Nigerian political history who ran for, and won the the Governorship position of a state while in prison

is that supposed to be a good record?


I think he should prepare to return where he came from

DonFreshmoney:
More needs to die..sorry to day but it's the fact.. the world has to be purged

some of you have no idea what you say online.

The world has to purge, purge what exactly?

Many of you are high on the gross misinformation some of the elites are spreading, one of such is that the world is over populated. That us very very false on any indices you'd like calculate it.


Now some want to go into the immoral act of artificially depopulating the world, some dundees are supporting the stupid ideas

RTSC:
Trump really fucckked up.

can you please explain this part with respect to Iran?

cnnamoko:
Govenors are way higher than senators and rep members...i dont know what the creator was thinking

the creator was not only ignorant but he/she is also one of the sheeples who follow anything they see online. No single senator earns more than any Governor in Nigeria.

Senators are just upgraded civil servants if you look at them individually. Of course they earn high but men... Governors are the real deal

This is not entirely correct. if you know how much the governors loot ad take home, you would put them at the top

dataking:
Dumb thinking

bro irrespective of what you and that guy are arguing, I think he's right with the definition of terrorism.

Before an act of violence could be classified as terrorism and the perpetrator terrorists it needs to have a political/religious aim. These aim are the ideologies he's talking about, and it also has to do with instilling fear. The said guy in the news, is a mass murderer unless this killings are linked to some political or religious ideologies and aims you can't call it an act of terrorism.

By the way, they're all bad and evil, neither terrorism nor mass murder is good.

kay10:
You are rude, brother

I don't think this is the time to pet China.

They deliberately allowed it to spread to the rest pf the world.

Haven't you read of Whistleblower doctor that was warned and later sent to where he'll eventually die of the virus?

What about the other 5 professionals that went missing after trying to explain to the world what is really happening.

Abeg you people should stop being hypocritical, if we can't call a spade what it is, then the entire world should be ready to live with this for decades.

Nuel4:
the whole world failed my friend. The whole world is on lockdown not just USA. Everybody miscalculated the severity of the virus it is not just USA. How exactly was he supposed to arrest the pandemic when democrat politicians, including a mayor in New York were encouraging people to go on about social gatherings?

New York is the only reason USA have ugly numbers. New York alone has more cases than Italy and China combined and New York is completely a democrat state and their democrat politicians encouraged their people to live normal lives and have fun.

don't mind hypocrites.

Everybody failed because China refused to give the world the accurate information. In the US it was worst in those cities because their Dem leaders told them to go out and have fun.

In Italy there was a similar stupid campaign 'hug a Chinese' campaign.
After the campaign it didn't talk long before Italy exploded with lots of covid19 cases
