if you dont give a fuck about your own citizens and children dying by guns then why should people from other countries? Ironically, "we" actually care more..we know how we live without a fear of guns and being gunned down and we would like you to live like that too.. reading many replies here it is evident you people, in the land of the free and home of the brave, seems to live in constant fear despite having guns while the civilized world lives with no fear and no guns.

and if you say "but USA is more dangerous than the rest of the civilized world". Well, it is because of the mentality you have. The mentality that every problem can ultimately be solved by and with a gun! The nutcase thinks that killing everyone with gun "will show them", you think that having gun will solve your protection problem,arming teachers will sovle crime in schools, arming this will solve that and this......everyone sees guns an an ultimate answer to anything,including crazies,thieves and harm doers... it is a vicious circle and more guns will just make it worse..Such a easy availability of guns and ammo definitely contributes to this mentality. As long as everyone thinks guns are solution to everything you will get violence no matter how many guns you have.

But how does that saying go: you cant help someone who doesn't want to help themselves in the first place.
