[b]Guns ARE normal. They always have been. [/b]

40% of households in the US have at least one gun in them (and those are only the households that freely [i]admitted[/i] to having a gun). There are more AR15’s in America than there are minivans - ALL minivans, regardless of manufacturer. Remember that the next time you see a minivan. Many high schools have rifle or trap/skeet teams. There are likely 400,000,000 guns in America at this point. More than 1 per person.

So yeah, guns are pretty ubiquitous. No one needs to normalize them. They’re already normal. [/quote]

You are right. Guns are normal and always have been...IN AMERICA. Nowhere else in any civilized country. Are we comfortable with having the highest rate of gun ownership in the world? Are we comfortable with normalizing armed intruder drills in our schools from grade school on?  A school shooting is an isolated, once-in-a-lifetime event in most countries--here it happens year round, every year. Why are we so different than other civilized nations on this matter? [/quote]
