Spoken like a true American. The difference is of course pools serves
a rather peaceful purpose involving swimming, relaxing and cooling
off. No matter how you twist and turn it, guns are made to kill and
the days of the wild west are long gone.
More to your point about overreaction, why is it people are not
allowed to smoke anywhere yet nothing stops them from stuffing their
face with junk food constantly. With obesity numbers around 40%, seems
like that puts all the other dangers somewhat into perspective, not
least the Mexican flu.
