this is all fucking weird to me. Packing heat where ever you go. I can understand having a gun in your car or something, kinda like a baseball bat in the trunk or in your home against burglars. But you don't carry that everywhere you go.

Saw a show about an english reporter tagging along with some neighborhood watch in the US with zero tolerance against gangs. Everybody had guns, gang members had stashed theirs in abandoned buildings, bushes etc. Shootings were common. The english guy said that when there's a shooting in the UK it's so rare that it is in the news right away. Just like here in NL.

Aaronm, why do you think there is such a huge difference with european countries, that in the US shootings are part of everyday life as opposed to europe?
