I agree exactly with qasx..etc.

Assman, I don't feel I need to read that book. I have hands on experience living in countries with lots of people. This feeling of entitlement to be strapped, I really gotta see.

Name another developed country NOT AT WAR where the people they need entitlement to carry guns like US.

I just don't understand how one can claim to be at peace and feel it's okay that civillians need to walk around with guns.

If this is the case, then you should be able to move to Venezuela and other dangerous countries because technically it's the same thing.

It's very easy to make a mistake with a gun. You can shake hands and let bygones be bygones with a man you punched up earlier but you cannot with one you blasted in the face.

And it takes a trained individual to do extensive damage with a punch. Usually more are needed.
Anyone can accidentally pop someone in the face with a gun.

I lived in London and some of the cats there are very nasty pieces of work. They stab a lot and if they could get their hands on guns like you do in America, believe they would be a lot more blasting going on.

The above poster put it nicely. How can a country not a war think that carrying guns is the answer to this?
