You mean like Europe?

I've talked to cops from over there, and they tell quite a different story
than the published "information".

The information from Hand-Gun-Control, Inc in the USA is totally public
too.

It just happens to also be totally wrong.

As I mentioned above, the cops from Europe tell a different story than most
anti-gun people do.

Since I didn't paint it as anything simple, I don't know what you mean.
