SHOOTING at the OLYMPICS

The weapons fetish of some people, and the US as a whole, and the vehemence with which people defend it never ceases to amaze and shock me. I, for example, am quite thankful for the strict german laws on weapons ownership and wouldn't mind seeing them made even stricter (to prevent weapons caches with dozens of guns).

But that, I guess, is the fundamental difference in cultures and upbringing.

Agreeing with you but not that statement... I know a lot of Americans that completely have the same values in regard to these things as I do. To stigmatize a whole nation like that is not only wrong, but gains nothing. It's like saying all Europeans are pro EU
