    Your assuming we all live in America where guns are legal. Good luck getting one in the UK.

        Yes and no. We don’t have school shootings so that’s a plus. I guess not having guns is the cost of that, which is pretty fair. Some people are allowed guns, but you need a special license for it.

        Edit: also we actually have stronger unions and more strike action even without guns. They don’t actually help outside of a revolution. If anything we have less police violence because we don’t have guns, so the most of police don’t either. As a police officer you have to have special specific training to even handle a taser, nevermind a gun.

          Sounds like a great role model to follow. Since you never mentioned what country you are fucking talking about we all will assume it’s a random one. So let’s just say, you’re talking about Mongolia.
