hey jon , nothing against USA in generell ,but the cops in USA are sick brutal animals .
i saw often how they react , ,
and in my opinion they allways overreating by arresting people !!
, they are same brutal ,equal they arresting a egg thief or a carjacker ,and this is not okay

in germany the cops will go in JAIL for such a behavior . at least they will be suspended for sure!!

That's true somewhat, but you're just seeing what the media shows you. I don't love cops (far from it) but they're not all like that.

here in South Africa an egg thief is often times also a car-jacker.
so the police force don't discriminate in who they dish out brutal treatment to. They treat everybody equally. :lol:

Most streets in US are perfectly safe, this isn't an option for cars yet in America:

btw i don't doubt streets are safe, but don't you feel insecure knowing that anyone can have a gun in the glove compartment? just asking... please don't start thinking "again another **** european thinking USA sucks and our laws are ridiculous", it's just that it's an unknown situation for me
Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

Honestly, no. I've never felt weird about guns being around. I only know 3 people in the US who own a gun, 2 of them keep it locked away and only use it at a firing range. The other one is a marine who likes to show off his collection.

Of course, it all comes down to location. Compton, for example, had the highest shooting/murder rate in the US per capita for over 10 years if I'm not mistaken. But Seattle was virtually crime free during the same period. I think it's much more of a problem if you're involved in serious crime to begin with. If I just robbed a crack dealer in south central, I'd be very concerned about guns in glove boxes. But as a middle class white guy in the suburbs, there's very little to fear.

...Guns always made me feel safer. The opposite of what you'd think. But that is how it is for me.

A lot of my friends have guns (legally). I don't care for them nor do I own any guns or any weapons at all, Xavi, but emate pretty much summed up the situation. The people that have guns and use them in illegal ways would have guns regarldess of whether or not they are legal.

i saw one report afteer the virginia tech massacre where they had the leader of a pro-gun organisation being interviews, and asked if they said do they think differently after massacres like this? and the guy basically said no, because if everyone had a gun, someone would have took him down after one shot. which kind of makes some sort of sense, however you could easily have anarchy then

lol, so i've been following the discussion and I think guns play a huge part in insecurity..here in Argentina a lot of people have guns, and thiefs have easy acces to guns, illegally of course..besides, cops are corrupt so instead of arresting arms dealers, they don't, in exchange for a part of the dealer's money..

any thief can have a gun if they wish to and this is reflected everyday in the news for instance, everyday someone gets killed in an attempt to steal his car, to break into his house...this wouldn't be possible without guns, but that's the difficult part, how the f**k are we supposed to get rid of them! :stupd

omg..this sucks so bad..
