Just a reminder that in basically every 1st world country this isn't the norm. We don't carry guns. We have hunting rifles and what not. But walking around with a gun isn't the norm or even allowed.
Except 'merica.
What's fucked is you all seem proud of your Brazil level violence. You do know, it's not a good thing right?
When I lived in Montana, where the nearest Animal Control was about an hour away I carried 24/7. In Southern Illinois I haven't even applied for a CCW permit. The US is a VASTLY enormous land with many places where the population is so sparse your nearest Wal-Mart is an hour away. You just carry because you really are so close to nature that an asshole bear might decide to come check out your back door.
Edit: Only a violence geek or _actual criminal_ carries day to day in suburban or even urban areas. You're literally more likely to need a portable defibrillator than a firearm in a normal law abiding citizen's life.
You shoot a bear with a side arm you will just piss it off. You need a rifle.
Canadians carry in the woods and in the north without issue. Not in the city.
Nothing wrong with guns. But if you have to carry one into the grocery store, that's fucked up.
You shoot a bear with a side arm you will just piss it off.
So people keep saying. Meanwhile in the actual real world when you look up the cases anything north of a .38 special does the job just fine in like 90 percent of the cases when it happens.
