- Max,
OK ... on reading my original post again I admit I got the tone wrong. But a passive aggressive "stab"? Not so.
Of course each country's laws are its own concern, but in this case IMHO they do affect others - for instance, there was a series of incidents a while back where a number of UK visitors to Florida were victims of shootings in a pretty short space of time. Understandably, they were very well publicised over here. That sort of thing, and the US homicide stats etc, are bound to be difficult to understand for some of us non-Americans.
But I will follow Donk (who is the gentleman as always) and keep my trap shut on this from now on.
