Interesting debate ... I understand the US. second amendment and respect it, on the other hand the numbers are very hard to ignore. The USA has many of the cities in the world with greater numbers of violent crimes with guns, year after year. I think that owning guns sounds nice but creates a more defensive, less free society, grounded in fear. Living in fear is a bad atmosphere, and people snap once in a while. At the same time the business is great for many companies. You are free to own guns but the concequences create pain and fear in the society. Just a thought
