Ugh. I still hate guns. Guns kill people and the US obsession with them will never make sense to me.

I hate it too, but not because I don't understand it, but because I do.

Americans are children, they are ruled by their action hero fantasies more than practicality. You can tell that they have such a mindset because they fear going without a weapon more than going without a medic. Only Barbarians and Children do that.

I say this as an American who has to deal with these kinds of people on a daily basis.
