When someone can show the percentages of bull's kept in average Spanish people's homes, then we can talk about bullfighting being banned as culture change.
It would be like boxing being banned here, its part of our history but not really our culture, its a sporting event, so is bullfighting, nothing more or less.
What so many people(but a surprisingly higher amount in here than normal) people don't get is the USA was born in a completely different circumstance to the UK. WE had wars without guns back in the day, america was born in revolution on a wild frontier where people had guns. Then we sent out army, who were armed, and their citizen's took up arms, but everyone had them, to fend off cattle rustlers, those pesky american indians who acted like they owned the land they lived on for thousands of years, to shoot snakes and loads of other dangers.
if the UK was either unoccupied, or invaded by a more advanced culture in the past 200 years, we'd have a very heavy gun culture here also.
That's just the way it is, you can't change that with gun laws now, everyone has them already, if you ban guns and round up all the ones legally held by law abiding/sane people who would hand them back.... criminals will still have all their guns.
Anyway, what else in this thread, Florida mansions for 100k aren't good value.... because you won't get insurance(probably if its THAT nice a house for that cheap) and you'll have to rebuild it every time a big hurricane goes past..... a mil here for a mansion that could last a couple centuries is better value than a $100k mansion in hurricane ally that you have to rebuild every 4-5 years
Anyway, guns don't kill people, people do... look up Canadian gun ownership numbers vs gun deaths there. America is overly violent, its got problems, it may be easier to KILL someone if you have a gun, its not easier to decide to murder, you're pretty much capable of it, or not, if you're capable, seriously without being too morbid, nor giving you idea's. Would it really be hard to stab your mum while no one is home, then get your sister when she comes home? Not least the fact that it happens frequently worldwide anyway.
hell, poison is a much easier weapon to use to kill people, slip poison in the family meal, guns, while its easy to pull a trigger, still takes aim, still means standing there and pulling a trigger and seeing a pretty horrible sight afterwards. People don't think its easier to put poison in food, leave the house, run away not even have to see them die?
From what I remember also, a larger portion of gun crimes in america are suicides than murders....
