Bahaha
Yes, because the free use of software conflates with wanting everyone (including the lunatics) armed with deadly weapons running around the places you try to live.
These Muricans really have such ignorant view on the world. I doubt they have ever left their hometown, let alone visited actual developed nations with real gun laws.
40% of Americans have never left the country.
11% have never left their own state.

I don't consider myself well-traveled, because I can't afford to be, but I've done my best (starting with vacations with my parents) to see other parts of the world.
Thats equally funny and correct imo.
Keep in mind 10% of America lives in California, where the gun laws are better.
That’s not true. Gun homicide rate in California is 4.7. Gun homicide rate in Arizona is 5.9.
Are you thinking of the total number? Because California’s huge population is going to skew that.
Also California has much larger cities than Arizona, and population density plays a factor.
