Either there truly aren't any mentally ill in those countries, or they keep them all locked up in the nuthouse. Which would also explain their lack of paranoid right wingers at the voting booths.

Not to mention- where do bad guys get guns? You guessed it! Responsible gun owners.

Let me tell you all about it...

Well hand guns are made for killin'
They ain't no good for nothin' else
And if you like to drink your whiskey
You might even shoot yourself
So why don't we dump 'em people
To the bottom of the sea
Before some ole fool come around here
Wanna shoot either you or me

So the Huff Post article says things have stayed the same? What difference does it make then?

It will make a difference when one of those guns is used on someone you care about.

You mean to tell me violent criminals, fools and raving lunatics don't typically manufacture their own guns?

Who knew?
