    though I am not sure I understand the first sentence.

    Fair enough. I missed the clause that said the UK system was better.

    I think the reform of police practices in the US is necessary, as well as a reform of gun laws (as the vast majority in the US note they want via surveys).

    Russian infiltration of the US extreme right, and the NRA has aligned the profits of gun manufacturers with the entire republican party. It's fucking nuts. The second amendment is about being able to form a well regulated militia. It specifically says well regulated, and it specifically says for the security of a free State.

    It doesn't say every psychopath and his dog has the right to an AR-15 with a grenade launcher.
