A GUN IN A HOME IN AMERICA, THAT IS KEPT IN MOST CASES FOR HOME PROTECTION, IS FORTY-THREE TIMES MORE LIKELY TO BE USED AGAINST A FAMILY MEMBER THAN IT IS TO BE USED AGAINST AN INTRUDER. WHY IS IT SO EASY FOR PEOPLE OUTSIDE AMERICA TO LEARN SUCH THINGS AND BE OPEN TO HEARING SUCH THINGS, AND ALSO TO HEAR THE OBVIOUS COMMON SENSE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH THINGS, THAN IT IS FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, WHO ARE THE ONES SO THREATENED BY THOSE GUNS? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE RATIONALITY OF AMERICAN PEOPLE AND, ESPECIALLY, AMERICAN POLITICS? IGNORANCE OF REALITY IS NO PROTECTION AGAINST ITS CERTAINTY.
THERE IS NO INDUSTRIALIZED NATION LIKE THE UNITED STATES. THAT USED TO BE A GOOD THING.
