Re: Uhh...
Uh, no, it's not. Not "the opposite", I mean.
According to all statistics I've ever seen or heard, the USA *is* pretty much "a gun-battling place".
Statistics? Or TV shows?
Guns are rarely used, even in the US. Very rarely. (rarely is a relative term, yes, they're used more than in say, Sweden) And their rates of use are going DOWN. Not up. Down.
This isn't the popular image projected by the media, I realise.
There's not a showdown on Every Main Street, Every Day, as Ashton portrays, nor does the NRA (or anybody else) advocate one.
