That is a broad statement.One of our local sheriffs thinks it is good that people have guns and it is OK to shoot an intruder.Now that is far different than prople walking down ths street getting shot for not good reason. There are times a gun should not be used.Break into my house, you are taking a stupid chance. My street has 10 houses.There are at least 3 ring doorbells, two cameras, eight guns that I know of.Maybe more.I'd certainly hot try to break in here but you are welcome to try. |

All tough talk aside, statistics show that people in countries with strict gun laws are much less likely to be killed than people in the US. But to each their own, so: Enjoy! |

Sounds like no reason to have a weapon in canuck towns. In Tennessee, you can just lay it on your coffee table or bed stand (loaded). Quicker to grab and fire if needed. I could easily get off 6 rounds of .44, carefully aimed in less than 15 seconds. |

Ahh, good question.The toaster oven. Which would be a great way to ruin a raw pizza - even if you did make it small enough to fit in there. -sw |

I wouldn't have any problem serving on a jury.When I first moved here I was served with notice I'd been called to jury duty.There were about 30 other potential jurors waiting.We filled out some forms, were given numbers and taken into a courtroom.We had to go through voir dire. Most of us were immediately dismissed.The attorneys for both sides were there, asking questions, looking for specific types of people to fill the jury box in their favour. (It did seem to me the Judge was half asleep or didn't really care about what was going on.) Another dismissed potential juror did recommend a seafood restaurant as I was walking towards my car in the parking lot. :) Jill |

Not every state has the death penalty.And it typically takes years before a person is executed.Usually has to be a particularly heinous crime and all legal appeals over the course of many years exhausted. Miss Manners doesn't approve of this thread drift. ;) Jill |

In Tennessee, they don't allow jurors to smoke a number. They'll shit if you just light up a cigarette. And they don't even give you cream cheese, let alone fancy voir dire they have in S. Carolina. I guess jury duty here is more like alabama or texas. Nuthin fancy. |

I said in my post that they grow giant avocados in Australia.

The reason, of course, is that the only voice yoose guys can hear is that little one inside your head. That avocado is of normal, decent size in any country where I've ever seen avocados. And what's the big deal? You say it tastes good and that's the main thing. |

FWIW, we > spend less per capita on health care than the US and the government plan > covers everyone. .... and we live longer. AFAIK our doctors earn more and we have insurance companies making a profit.I'm not sure of other cost differences. I chuckle though when people from other countries say their medical is "free".Most have no idea of cost.I talked to the owner of the villa we rented in Italy and he said it is about 15% of income.There are exceptions. In my case, what my employer paid was not far off from that but I don't know how it works for people making more or less than me since the premiums would be about the same. In the US, it was common for employers to pay for health insurance but I think those days have gone.Some offer insurance but often with a hefty employee contribution. |
