Dan no matter what side someone stands on the gun argument the buck stops even for any NRA propaganda if you look at the big city just separated by a river called Windsor/Ont on the north and Detroit/Mich on the south side.I think Windsor has a much murders in one year as Detroit in one day...End of the "gun" argument...
There was also a funny movie (Bowling for Columbine) where a fat guy from michigan with the name michael walked through windsor and people were friendly and left their doors unlocked.On the south side americans were scared and afraid of who knows what carrying guns that kept them "safe" as they try to keep us scared with the "terrorists" to pry our last rights and freedoms away to have big brother protect us and keep us safe...
I guess it must be some kind of american paranoia and hence the fascination with guns...An argument which might cost you a bloody nose in canada might leave someone dead in the US;as the name implies saturday night special...
But to be fair todays gunlaws in the US are as restrictive as in europe except for a few states remaining were you actually can carry a gun except for keeping one in your house or go hunting,target shooting...And with 150 miilion firearms + in the country it would be too late anyways to do anything about it...The poor and economically challenged will always have access to one as also the law abiding taxpayers who feel scared without them...
