I Don't Think Guns Make Us Safer

I think it is a double edge sword. One on end, you would think having guns means security and therefor protection, which equals safety. On the other end, the gun you have to protect yourself with, will the others will have them as well so the likely hood of resolving matters peaceful has a good chance to escalate to violence.

Compare USA crime and shooting statistics with other countries.. The horse has probably bolted, though. There's probably no possibility of any change.

@OhAngel: Oh, there's lots of things that could be done, and many are in some states, but the gun lobby seems to think that ANY regulation is going to be the thin edge of the wedge...
