You must suffer from little man syndrome or your medication needs adjusting. Are you known to the police as a regular troublemaker who gets in fights with strangers to prove his manhood or just for extra pocket money? Pay attention Mort, I didnt say I get into fist fights. But I dont need a big gun to prove my manhood either. You americans are too scared of things, thats what your high rate of gun ownership is based on, fear, not courage. The Americans do get into fist fights. FBI stats homicide deaths 2012- Handguns- 6371 Rifles including so called assault rifles- 322 knives or cutting instruments- 1,589 Hammers clubs etc- 518 Hands fists feet- 678 Twice as many people are killed with fists/feet/hands in the USA compared to rifles. Why you relying on 2012 data when 2013 was released last November Baron?
