Yes, amendment II, did you know that over 11,100/year people get killed by a gun in US, compared to for example England, where the same number is below 100? It's too easy to get a gun! I think there shouldn't be a right to own a gun, it only brings problems.
And the way the whole society is built. People get pressure from the day they are little kids, and this pressure grows and grows until we can see the results in the behavior of individuals. People forget to be humans, and when people don't get treated as humans, it's going to show somehow in a negative way. People expect too much from other people and themselves, and we have forgotten what's really important in life. There is too much pressure to show to everyone (including ourselves) what we are able to do/get in life, and we want too much! The ones who never get the feeling that they are doing well, (since they've been little kids, they've never felt that they are doing enough to be loved), are growing mad to the people around them.

Your stastics are completely off. Check my source below.

Beleive me it is easy to hate other countries. Understand that you, just like every other country is the world is subject to propganda telling you that so and so country is evil. Take a step back, look at the facts. America is far from perfect but not completely as messed up as you may beleive. The same goes for All of North America and Europe.

America was built on violence starting with the Boston Tea Party which started the revolution. We also ran out of Indian's to shoot so now when we get bored we shoot at each other or rape our woman or when traveling we do it to you and your family. Never a dull moment here that's why we love our country. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
