I agree with Scotty, you don't see any guns here. When there is a death due to guns it will be on the news, so when like ONE death is on the news a year, everyones like OMG guns everywhere, when in reality there isn't.

Also I think it depends what type of society you live in aswell because that will effect the stability of the people that live there.

For example, in my opinion, in more socialist countries like Norway, Sweden, Finland, UK, etc the people are less likely to go around shooting people due to the nature and culture of the society people are brought up in.

Where as America is a very capitalistic society and more of a dog eat dog, do whatever to survive type and I think that draws in more violence, combined with the ability to be able to just walk into a shop and buy a gun is a deadly combo IMO.

my 2 cents.
