True Dem, but you fail to add one key number into your equation. That is, how stupid people in the USA are compared to people from switzerland. In switzerland you dont have to actually tell people you cant be like Wiley Coyote and strap a rocket to your ass and fly down the side of a mountain. Here on the other hand, people are dumb, and so long as you have to tell them you cant be like a cartoon, they cant own fire-arms either. If you have no common sense, you have no ability to safely own a gun.
Edit: And for the record syren, lets look at it. Would you have even been considered for that interview had it not been for the benefits you received while still attached to your parents? Keep in mind, in a poor family you cant afford school to get a degree to get the entry level position. In that situation you'd be a dock working nobody like everyone else, with no hope, and dreams shattered by a busted system that dont give a shit.
Now, dont get me wrong, im not saying you should apologize for being born into a wealthy family, far from it. You just get to be one of the lucky few that doesnt have to deal with life the way the rest of us do. However, the difference is, I do know what its like to be in your position, but you on the other hand, have no clue what its like to be on the other side of the tracks, which is exactly the problem. Having no frame of reference for what its like to live like that, how could you ever have sympathy for anyone else who does? Not your fault, but true none-the-less. Always remember syren, I dont hate "you", I hate the system that created you.
Edit edit: That and its fun to pick on you because you bite back instead of just crying about it.
