Just my own preference...I prefer a country with very strict gun controls... |
* Based on survey data from a 2000 study published in the Journal of Quantitative Criminology, U.S. civilians use guns to defend themselves and others from crime at least 989,883 times per year
* A 1994 survey conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that Americans use guns to frighten away intruders who are breaking into their homes about 498,000 times per year
* A 1982 survey of male felons in 11 state prisons dispersed across the U.S. found:
? 34% had been "scared off, shot at, wounded, or captured by an armed victim"
? 40% had decided not to commit a crime because they "knew or believed that the victim was carrying a gun"
? 69% personally knew other criminals who had been "scared off, shot at, wounded, or captured by an armed victim"

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
