Never mind, I thought that when you said "Yes, except that even if guns were illegal, you could still get them." you meant that in direct response to "If psychos and utter nutjobs have nukes, the world is a more dangerous place."

BTW: The next time you say "it's a right" is such a weak argument, I hope someone shoots you. Hey, the right to life is just such a weak argument, right?

I'm not telling you to get rid of your guns. Though as a foreign bystander I'm a little disturbed by your instant hostility. I'm not trying to disarm you so I can better kill you in your sleep. Neither is anyone in the US who disagrees with the public right to own anything that ranks below a backyard SAM battery.

As for me getting shot, there's a very small chance of that happening because guns aren't that easy to get in my country. And few criminals actually have them - most of them that do tend to use them on other criminals.

Like I said, it's a cultural difference. I can never understand what it would be like to live in a society where everyone can own a gun, and I suppose you can never feel safe in a society where nobody can own a gun (legally).
