Whatever. Not worth it to get into it. It always comes down to a gun debate, which inevitably leaves me itching to shoot somebody. A feeling that is unwelcome since I don't own a gun and can't go to the range and cap off a few hundred rounds to sate my urge.

My point was simply that there are types of violence we experience here that you don't experience there and vice versa. When I hear about Chechen rebels taking a school or about Muslim thug gangs in France, I'm not on here talking about how screwed up Europe is and how its failings produce such a social problem.

But, I see a story about a US school shooting and I just come waiting for the across-the-ponders to start posting about how screwed up the US is.

Such is life.
