I just love these stats:
"The same number of people killed in Germany by Car accidents, is killed in the
Staates by gun bullets".
*rofl*

I think each country has pretty sides and bad sides. Weather in Saudi
Arabia is perfect compared with Germany, but loosing the hand for the case
you steel something worth of five bucks? Redicilous and not a good sign for
tolerance and respecting each other in general. I know western cultures are
looking like sinners in their eyes, but they should watch their garden
first. A Society with nearby unlimited resources like the Saudi s can
easily effort everything what makes life easy.
Everyone should decide on his own, where it is safe and ok to live. I would
like to live in the USA, but as i have family, my wife is strictly against
it. Know why? The same number of people killed in Germany by Car accidents,
is killed in the Staates by gun bullets. So, decision is easy, i guess.
And stop blaming Canada, nice area. In my eyes, ok?

Totally agree with everything said here. I blame it all on lawyers and the
media.
I've got an idea - how about a bunch of us move our families to a secluded
Pacific island with no lawyers or televisions. We'll sit around a monitor
fully-cached databases with no users or developers...ah....Utopia!
