It’s a characteristic of American society that is not shared by any other civilized country. I find it really mind-boggling that my suggestion that we ought to approach the problem by just getting rid of the Second Amendment really has not captured more popular support, because it’s so obvious that it’s an undesirable part of our government structure.
Yet asshole we have the greatest country on earth. See the correlation because I do.
I'm hard pressed to think of another nation that is currently still running under its founding documents and political system as long as the US is as of this writing. Maybe England, sort of.
(Vatican doesn't count nor various tiny principalities). Maybe Switzerland?
