@Brainfart

as I said, something is inherently broken with your country. Get rid of the politicians and elect some, that are able to set up an effective police force.

I also stayed up late in the night as a teen. And I met my dad several times in the kitchen. Turning on the lights really helps.

No guns needed.

There were several cases of burglary in the neighbourhood. The people slept, and the burglars stole expensive stuff - and they were really good. Never woke anybody up.

If the burglar is a good one, you won't know until you miss something or you see the damage to the lock.

School Shooting #23 was 20 minutes up the road from where I was, and they locked down the school I was in. I was administering the network there.

Go look at Canada please they have plenty of guns and it isn't as bad there as in the states gunless societies mean absolutely nothing if the populace is fearful and feel as though things are just collapsing around them. If you didn't have guns you would have various other violent crimes its not exactly that difficult to kill someone without a gun. Let's also not pretend that every death involving a gun is an act of mass murder which is what guns excel at volume killings.

I heard there were 3 recent school shootings, and I thought to myself, what was the 3rd. Apparently the 1st 21 weren't done with enough pizazz to deserve much media attention.

When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.

with guns, non-outlaws become outlaws with quick sanity.

Ok, here's one for you.

Violent crime has been sharply increasing in the UK recently, and according to this the UK is at number two on the list of industrialised nations' violent crime rate(Behind Australia). The US isn't even in the top 10.

You'd think that with stats like that, Britain should also have a much higher homicide rate than the US. You'd be very wrong.

According to the graph here the US comes in at number 24, while England and Wales are at 46 and Australia(violent crime central) is at 43.
