In the United States, you could stand in the midst of a pack of wolves, swim with a shark, and then camp near a grizzly bear and her cubs—all within 24 hours—and still statistically have a better chance of surviving than if you spent that same day at a school.
People in other countries look at us and shake their heads at our out-of-control gun violence. The solution is simple: just follow Australia’s outstanding example of success in stopping mass shootings. Having the will to do it is another matter. Being able to easily acquire guns is, obviously, more important to Americans than all those human lives.
If our politicians are going to continue boasting that we live in the “greatest country in the world,” they must immediately stop kowtowing to the NRA and the ammosexuals and back up their claim with meaningful legislation.
