yeah... I just really wanted to hear that from americans, not a rich brit who'd gone over on concorde, and stayed in a 5 star hotel... It's just ridiculous figures like 20,000 poeple die from gun violence a year... The other thing that added to it were the kids that came over to our school (when I used to go to school), and they've all got guns! They did their gun safty test when they were in the 6th grade! They were abotu 17, 18 and were shocked that most poeople had been drinking scince 14, but they didn't get how alien guns are to us... I mean the only poeple who have them are farmers, and they have shot guns, and it takes months to get a licence...
Sorry I shouldn't really take heed of steroetypes (I dont to any other culture, well except to other brits, but nothing serious.. maybe It's cos I see as americans as our wierd cousins)...
Ponyone: um... Well any of the girl's male... no why be sexist, any of her relatives could have pulled a gun on ya... we hear stories of how kids bring guns to school ( but dont actauly use them)... Overhere, some one gives me verbal, I dont care, they get physical I get physical, and this puts people off, noone wants a black eye, or teeth missing... Now having some with a gun around harrasing poeple, that's a nightmare. I'm a very calm person, but I wont take being smacked like an animal, so where does that lead the sitaution? .. do you see where I'm comming from.... Still, I'm sure our bone idle press who likes to make a mountain out of a mole hill (cos it certainly fills the pages/ minutes quicker and easier than proper journalism) has done it again...
