I didn't have to watch this to know what it was. I figured that puzzle out when I was six or seven to the astonishment of many. Unfortunately, it was a one-time thing, and I have since become a complete loser. BUT! I HAD PROMISE!
The difference between America and Canada astounded me at first, but then I remembered how many US novelties never make it to Canadian grocers. Good times. I love taking my gut on holiday to the States.
The impression I'm getting is that, without guns, the United States is unsafe. In England you might feel safer because of other things, but safer in the States because of guns. I have no idea. The longest I've been in the States at one time was approximately 6 weeks, and I felt as paranoid as ever. I feel safer in Canada. Nothing is unnerving like being pulled over by a State trooper who keeps his hand on his pistol the entire time. For me, anyway.
I'd rather live in ignorant bliss than have to deal with the worry of who's going to shoot me. Guns have little to no chance of escape when used, which is why they're an asset to police officers, but to the common citisen? Nobody -needs- a gun. You can argue the need for self-defence, but guns aren't the end-all-be-all.
They're a privilege, not a right, and like most destructive things, need to be respected.
