Is it normal for people to set up surveillance cameras in their own home? Are break-ins that common? I just assume no-one will bother with my shitty flat.

Well if you took a page out of France's playbook it wouldn't necessarily get to this point. At the slightest suggestion that they might have to work a bit extra or pay a bit more, they're out burning cars and building guillotines. As it should be.

Edit: also educating people on safe firearms use as a condition of ownership of a firearm actually goes a long way to reducing the deaths. Also guns aren't the only way of getting rid of people. Just ask the IRA.

Ok another thing people haven't really touched on is government restrictions on dangerous shit generally. I'm not just talking about guns, but also cars. When I was in the states I saw so many car accidents and bits of car on the road. That doesn't need to happen. It turns out that if you have proper driving tests and mandatory classes, people don't crash as much. Same with guns though. Owning a gun is fine if you learn how to properly use and store it.

I'm sure if you took a second to think about possible solutions to this problem you'd find a way of making the necessary amendments to your country.

Yeah kids reciting the pledge of allegiance is honestly psychotic.

We're experiencing a couple of hours of twilight at midday at the moment but otherwise darkness. No aurora either because it's been mostly cloudy since the beginning of polar night. Also it's been raining on and off, which is not a good sign.
