Is it true that Canada has more guns per head of population than the USA but nothing like the level of killings in the USA?

Interesting, if true. Honestly had never heard that. Guess it's the right to arm bears...?

According to Wiki(1) not even close:

USA: 120.5 per 100
Canada: 34.7

Fascinatingly The Falklands are second with 62.1 per 100

(1) If you chose to accept Wiki as at least halfway accurate

Still submit that there's no census of wildlife packing. Like the gun dog on the other thread...

Ahh, but it's per head of human (1) population. Anyway, when was the last time a Doberman carried out a mass shooting?

(1) Well. Leftpondians(2)
(2) This is a joke ;)

Important for pedestrians. Before crossing the road:

In the UK, look RIGHT then LEFT.

In the USA, look LEFT then RIGHT!

Well when a bunch of us Brits were working in MA outside Boston rather than driving 2 miles to do a U to get round to the Iguana Cantina from our hotel just on the other side of Route 9, we hopped across the carriageways and the concrete centre.

US drivers would slow/stop to allow us to cross. Try that in the UK!
