Those who aren't from the U.S. -- what are your opinions on these seemingly constant gun massacres in America? What goes through your head every time you see a headline or read a news article like this one? I'm genuinely curious.

it's a violent and military culture. no other country in the world is constantly on war, no one has so many military holidays. the mass media reinforces manichean views of good and evil. Jack Bauer taught people that torture may be cool, sometimes... in other countries violence is rooted in inequality, poverty. but in the US these delusional guys do for futile reasons and they see themselves as heroes.
