I know it's not kosher to post news items without comment, but in this case, I'm not sure what the comments might be. I think we all suspect that the rest of the world looks on our "gun culture" with morbid fascination. Here is one example, from the Arab news site "Al Jazeera," for those who are interested.
Here's the link:
http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/interactive/2012/07/2012726141159587596.html
Added:
For those who insist on a preview before they click on a link, the webpage contains a graphic that ranks and compares the rates of gun ownership and the rates of gun deaths in each state in the usa. It also contains a chart comparing the numbers of guns in us civilian ownership versus those in other nations.
The purpose of me posting the link was solely to provide one example of non-dopmestic gun reporting
, for those who might be curious. That's why I said, "for those who might be interested." If you don't want to click on the link, then don't. If you're concerned that reading a news item from the Arab equivilent of CNN might result in your door getting kicked in during the wee hours of the morning, then there's nothing I can say to assure you that this is safe.
High Road should not equate to high and mighty. Lighten up.
