I'm of the opinion that this is an issue for Americans to resolve. I have an opinion, but it matters not one jot. I can not and never will understand the gun culture of the US. That's why non-Americans should just butt out and leave them to it. Let them continue killing each other. The situation is beyond reproach. There are simply too many guns in general circulation. If I was an American living in America, I would want a gun to defend myself too.
