I'm wondering what are the gun laws in Uruguay? Is a citizen allowed to own
a rifle, for example? Thank you.
You can buy and own a gun. You are not allowed to own big caliber guns
(armas de guerra). Guns up to .38 are no problem. Are you planning to
buy?;-)

I want to move out of the U.S. because I don't like what the U.S. government
is doing in the world.
I'm interested in Uruguay becauce my Father was from Uruguay, and I can
become a citizen there.
I'm sorry to hear that the economy is bad.

"Uruguayan people is basically pacific" .... ignoring the grammatical
errors and general banality of that statement, I will say that crime in
Uruguay has risen as quickly as the economy has descended. This is
especially true in Montevideo.
As for guns of calibers larger than .38 being "Armas de Guerra", that is
Orwellian double-speak. You have been fooled into thinking that
selective fire weapons and larger calibers than .38 are weapons of war,
and now you spout the phrase "Armas de Guerra" as if it was a fact.
He who controls the language controls the ideas, at least when dealing
with the ignorant. Remember aso that guns are not for duck hunting,
they are for tyrant hunting.
Had the Uruguayan populace been well-armed, neither the military
dictatorship nor the Tupas would have succeeded.

I didn't refer to this kind of ideas. Just to give people the chance to
improve they aknowledgements, or to create new jobs, helping hands. This
could be banal and retorical statements (dont' forget that your head is
empty), but if u really see what people can do, pragmatically, check...

I know that it could seems a banal statement. And what about the point of
view of an asshole who wants to visit a new country and the first thing that
thinks is about local weapons' laws??
I was born and grew up in Montevideo. I lived there for 23 years and I can
assure you that uruguayan people is pacific. Obviously that doesn't mean
that they can be fooled without.

so you can stay at home, dude. It's true that violence is rising. Try to
imagine yourself in a similar situation. But it's not carrying guns that you
solve anything.
> Had the Uruguayan populace been well-armed, neither the military

This is real bullshit. Please inform yourself about how things happened.
USA populace is well armed, but they are under Bush dictatorship. He don't
need weapons to dominate them. Medias were enough to convince America's
people to start a new war, babe!
Sorry if I'm agressive, but your posting is a compilation of bullshit...

B4 I start writing I also have 2 say that my english is quite poor so
read twice or better three times b4 u missunderstand me ;)
Nelson, did U write under the nick "me"?
Ferrarix's answer was actually 2 him and not 2 you then.
Most of the uruguayan people I know react quite sensitive if u ask about
having weapons at home (me too). They fascinate me but I wouldnt have
one at home.
Im sorry but I cant help u with information about gun laws, etc. in
Uruguay, actually the only people I know that have guns live in the land
(farmers? dont know the proper word) and they use them for hunting
"perdices, carpinchos and liebres" (can someone translate this please?!) :)
...the only people I know that live in the cities and have guns at home
are militaries or policemen... (of course there has to be others but
having guns at home is just not that common). Of course u will nead a
"weapon-certificate".
Im anyway wondering... maybe u can help me... if you are thinking of
moving to another country (normally) the first questions that come into
your mind are not if u can take your guns with you or not.
> So, it's better to get robbed and stabbed by a street punk, for example,
> than to defend yourself?
Can U define street punk please?
The last time I was in Uruguay I didnt see actually any punks... and as
far as I know (at least here in Aachen, Germany) punks are quite pacific. ;)
Be nice 2 each other...

I don't know why anyone should be "sensitive" about it. I thought it was a
fair and reasonable question.

Well, that certainly wasn't the first question I had, only the first
question that I posted here.
There are websites which answered many of my other questions.

I meant someone who preys on others...a "mugger", who would rob you on the
street and perhaps harm you.

1) Pregunta acerca la legislacion uruguaya sobre armas, ya que tiene
intenciones de ir alli. En su otro post decia "I thought it was a fair and
reasonable question".
No se a cuantos de este ng (casi todos afuera) se les ocurrio una idea
semejante en el momento de emigrar
2) "Had the Uruguayan populace been well-armed, neither the military
dictatorship nor the Tupas would have succeeded"
No obstante mi ingles no sea academico, si no me equivoco, esto quiere decir
que si la poblacion uruguaya hubiera estado bien armada, ni la dictadura ni
los Tupas habrian tenido exito. Realmente hay que tener mucha mierda en la
cabeza para afirmar una cosa semejante
3) "Uruguayan people is pacific" is a banality.
Se permite de juzgar pueblos que no conoce.
4) So, it's better to get robbed and stabbed by a street punk, for example,
than to defend yourself?
Es justo gente como vos que necesita Uruguay. Ya que estas, lleva algunos
amiguetes, asi arman una banda de justicieros, no?
Te pido que no me respondas porque vas a seguir diciendo cagadas, por favor.

To me it sounds like the point of view that he is worried for his

world.

It is not that i disagree per se with your "pacific" statement, but more
that I don't see how that differentiates Yoruguas from the rest of
America. Hence my assertion that your statement is devoid of content,
lacking in specific facts, and completely banal - - - although I do
agree that Yoruguas are in general mild mannered and mostly harmless.
That is until they decide to start torturing each other on suspicion of
communism or conversely on suspicion of capitalism. So in that respect
Yoruguas are par for the course for the Southern Cone nations when it
comes to being "pacific". And, if we are to believe in the statistics
of small numbers (which we should not), Yoruguas are way below par for
being banal, apparently.

Carrying a gun, at least in the home, would help to combat the
prevalence of home invasion crimes in Montevideo. If you don't believe
that carrying guns solves anything, then why is there not a sign in
front of your home (or on your person) saying "THIS IS A GUN FREE
ZONE" ?
The truth is that the Charruas with money, living in Punta and Carrasco
are well protected by guns. They have their own guns, their own
security, and enjoy an abundance of gubmint (sic) funded police
protection. Meanwhile the useful idiots (to quote from Joe) blather on
about the futility and worthlessness of guns. Please tell me the last
time that someone robbed an army base in Uruguay, and please tell me why
the banks have armed guards, given your assertion that "it's not
carrying guns that you solve anything."

Sorry my beef-eating friend, but you will need a more astute argument
than "This is real bullshit" to convince your readers. If your
assertion that the US is under a "Bush dictatorship" is an example of
the veracity of your arguments, then you may be the one that should
"inform yourself about how things happened".
As to the separate topic of the war about to begin, there are many
newsgroups beating that llegüa to death. Suffice it to say that I am
happy that France's unilateralist efforts to protect their oil and
weapons contracts with Saddam Hussein have failed miserably.
> Sorry if I'm agressive, but your posting is a compilation of

Hey, no apologies needed. It is not your aggression that you should
apologize for, but your lack of cogent arguments.
Off to enjoy my mate with my thermos under my arm.
No es que no tengo argumentos. Es que hacer razonamientos articulados en
ingles correcto me llevaria demasiado tiempo; por lo que, visto que andas
con el termo abajo del brazo, contestame en criollo;
Por lo menos decime si lo entendes, asi te explico mi teoria con los
argumentos del caso.
