Actually - no. Here in the US, and in other places around the world, guns
are commonplace. Yet - no warring citizens. How do you explain that?

What exactly do you call "commonplace"? In Canada, Britain, Australia,
Japan, China, The Netherlands, guns ARE NOT commonplace. Just because the US
has guns enshrined in its constitution doesn't automatically include the
rest of the civilized countries around the world.

Guess that rocks your "The USA is the centre of the universe" theory eh?

WTF??? Where does that crap come from? You made a blatently stupid
statement, and I called you on it by demonstrating that in the US and other
parts of the world guns are commonplace. Yet - there is not a warring
citizenry as you so foolishly claimed. Then... you come back with this???
Just what in the hell does this response have to do with anything? Oh - I
know - it's just a dig at the US and the second ammendment, right? Making
foolish digs like this does nothing more than expose your jealousy for what
you don't have.

Who cares that some countries do not allow guns to be commonplace. That
has nothing at all to do with the point - which... now read really
slowly... guns in the hands of law abiding citizens does not create a
warring society.

Think you can get your head around that?
