the USA is among the most violent western states with the highest homicide rate. Why? because in the US they give you weapons (not just guns) even when you are ordering an hamburger.... no other state has so many shootings in schools, cinemas and other public places. You are obsessed with violence. In Europe there are no problems with guns because only police can have them. You may have the misfortune of finding a thief in your house or someone who wants to hurt you and you may be killed. But this is life and allowing anyone to have a weapon is not the solution. Otherwise the US should no longer have problems with theft and violence, and this is not true, right?
