Americans bought 25.2 million guns, which is 2.5 million more guns than possessed by every law enforcement agency in the world put together.[7] Between 2012 and 2017, U.S. civilians bought 135 million guns, 2 million more guns than the combined stockpile of all the world's armed forces.[7]


Jaw dropping stats indeed. Never knew we loved our guns just that much. For this reason, a universal gun ban could never work here.

Only about 6.5% of the worlds total population, those you ever lived or currently alive, are alive today.

1. You need to move your decimal point over two places since you listed it as a percentage


2. Your 230K death number of people dying from COVID is way off. That may be the correct number of deaths of people who tested positive though. Huge difference.

Other races are NEVER referred to as "yokels". You are spouting a fricking dog whistle.

and to the other person with El Paso closer to LA than Texarkana, Texarkana is closer to Atlanta than El Paso


ie Texas spans damn near a third of the southern pat of the country

and El Paso is only 3 states away from the Atlantic

This is exactly what other countries thought about when weighing options on invading the US during WWII.
