Now, before I start saying this, I want to say this, right, I believe in your right as

Gerund

Americans to have guns, I'm not trying to stop you from having guns, all I'm saying is this is my personal belief on the opinion, my opinion on the belief, ah, it doesn't matter,

Future simple

I don't like guns, right, I'm going to say some things that are just facts, right, in

Australia we had guns, right, right up until 1996 and in 1996 Australia had the biggest massacre on earth, still hasn't been beaten, and, now after that they banned the guns, now in the 10 years before Port Arthur there was 10 massacres, since the gun ban in 1996 there hasn't been a single massacre since, I don't know how or why this happened, ah, maybe it was a coincidence, right, now please understand that I understand that Australia and America are two vastly different cultures with different people, right, I get it, in

Australia we had the biggest massacre on earth, the Australian government went, that's it, no more guns, and we all went, and we all went, yeah, right then, that seems fair enough to me, now in America you have the Sandy Hook Massacre where little tiny children died and your government went, maybe we'll get rid of the big guns, and 50% of you went, f**k you, don't take my guns, so here's, here's where it gets confusing, right, now as I said I'm all for your Second

Amendment rights, I think you should be able to have guns, it's in your Constitution, what I'm not for is bullshit arguments and lies, there is one argument and one argument alone for having a gun, and this is the argument, f**k off, I like guns, it's not the best argument, but it's all you've got, and there's nothing wrong with it, there's nothing wrong with saying I like something, don't take it away from me, but don't give me this other bullshit, the main one is I need it for protection, I need to protect me, I need to protect my family, really, is that why they're called assault rifles, is it, never heard of these f**king protection rifles you speak of, protection, what the f**k are you talking about, you have a gun in your house, you're 80% more likely to use that gun on yourself than to shoot someone else, and people think, well that had never happened to me, you don't know that, because you know what, from time to time, we all get sad, one day you're happy, then you're sad, and then, protection, I had a break-in in Manchester,

England, where I was tied up, I had my head cut, they threatened to rape my girlfriend, they came through the window with a machete and a hammer, and Americans always go, well imagine if you had a gun, and I'm like, all right, I was naked at the time, I wasn't wearing my holster, I wasn't staring at the window waiting for cunts with machetes to come through, like what world do you live in, where you're constantly f**king ready, you have guns because you like guns, that's why you go to gun conventions, that's why you read gun magazines, none of you give a s**t about home security, none of you go to home security conventions, none of you read padlock monthly, none of you have a Facebook picture of you behind a secure door going f**king yeah, like you're gonna be ready if someone comes into your house, you have it at all f**king time, by the way, most people who are breaking into your house, just want your f**king TV, you think that people are coming to murder your family, how many f**king enemies do you have, jeez, you think a lot of yourself if you think everyone's coming to murder you, so if you have it readily available, it becomes unsafe, you have it in your bedside table, one of your kids picks it up, thinks it's a toy, shoots another one of your kids, happens every f**king day, people go, that would never happen in my house, because

I'm a responsible gun owner, I keep my guns locked in a safe, then there's no f**king protection, someone comes into the house, you're like, wait there f**k face, oh you've come to the wrong house here buddy boy, I'll tell you what, I'm gonna f**k you up, okay, is it 32 the left or 32 the right, your mother's birthday, why the f**k would I know your f**king mother's birthday, maybe if you didn't leave the window open, because it's too hot in here, we wouldn't be getting f**king murdered right,

I find the NRA to be hard work, the fact that they always think the answer is more guns, after Sandy

Hook happened, the NRA said and I quote, none of this would have happened, if the teachers had guns,

I think they're forgetting what school was like, did anyone remember that casual teacher that used to, whenever she came onto school, that relief teacher came, you and your friends would see her and go, oh we're gonna make her cry, and then she's standing in front of the class with a bit of chalk and her hands would be shaking, and you go, you're never getting married are you miss, never gonna happen for you, then she gets back to a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle, she'd be crying over the steering wheel, just why don't they like me, let's give that kind of gun and see how things work out, and then they go, oh we'll answer to that, we'll just add more guns, they go we'll put an armed security guard at every school across America, yeah that'll work out, the average security guard in America earns $16 an hour, not a lot of wiggle room to be a fucking hero, someone comes onto the school and and you've got Kevin, now I'm sure Kevin's shit hot at Call of Duty, but it might not fucking cut it ladies and gentlemen, now I understand that when I'm doing this joke in this room, 50% of you agree with me, 50% of you don't agree with me, and I do respect the people who don't agree with me, don't think I don't, uh the 50% that don't agree with me, 20% of those people are smart enough to realize this is a comedy show and it's not to be taken seriously, and they're laughing along because it's just funny jokes right, and then the next 20% are sort of phased out a little bit and looking around going,

 I wonder how they got that chandelier up, and then there's the last 10% and they're fucking furious, right now in this room and the people watching at home, 10% of you are fucking seething, just and for a couple of reasons, first reason, I'm making good points,
