Every time there is another shooting in America, I am once again amazed to read how liberal their laws are for guns. It seems that everybody is entitled, in half the States in the country, to carry a semi-automatic weapon, to carry it concealed and all of this is protected, allegedly, by their Constitution! In some areas you are even allowed to take guns into bars and I cannot imagine what types of lunatics in their legislature don’t understand that men, alcohol and guns are a particularly poor cocktail!
One wonders, with them having a President assassinated every 20 years or at least an attempt on a President’s life, not to mention the congress woman who has recently been shot, and all of their school massacres, when they will eventually get around to accepting that in a proper democracy you really don’t need to carry a hidden gun everywhere you go to “protect your rights”.
