I would like to point out to you that although citizens in the US still have their firearms; yet, they still stop people from going to work or into restaurants and the like. You see, the firearms have to be used in order for their presence to affect anything. Conservatives in the US merely blog with feeling. They don't do anything else, whatsoever. They are sheep, just like everyone else.
Then there is the French and the Austrians, who actually took to the streets in protest. THEY have the guts, we have bluster.
