Buying small arms in Somalia

Now please let me have a valid source for that hilarious US right wing, NRA propagandist statement. And be warned, i'll slap you with figures of gun realted homicides in different countries in return. And you do know which country is #1 don't you? Yeah you guessed it, U! S! A! U! S! A!
;-)
"U.S. crime trends have been better than those in countries with restrictive firearms laws. Since 1991, with what HCI calls "weak gun laws" (Sarah Brady, "Our Country`s Claim to Shame," 5/5/97), the number of privately owned firearms has risen by perhaps 50 million. Americans bought 37 million new firearms in the 1993-1999 time frame alone. (BATF, Crime Gun Trace Reports, 1999, National Report, 11/00.) Meanwhile, America`s violent crime rate has decreased every year and is now at a 23- year low (FBI). In addition to Japan, other restrictive countries have experienced increases in crime."
Trends are not all the same for every country, but it's basically leading to "less guns = more murders" because in countries/states that restrict firearms ownership only the criminals have guns. BECAUSE THEY ARE CRIMINALS!
Keep in mind, I'm talking about 1st world countries Conan. What country do you live in? I would love to see your facts. I live in a state in the USA that allows for concealed AND open carry of unloaded firearms, and I fell very safe because of it. There are 4 guns in my house.
Buying small arms in Somalia
Fun to watch, but when the dude in the white shirt (Kaj Larsen) says that the proliferation small arms creates instability in countries it really boils my blood. That is totally false, it is a fact that countries that allow their citizens to own firearms are safer (with the exception of violent militia ruled countries such as Somalia). He's making a senseless comparison between countries in totally different situations.
Pope Song
Almost the best song I've heard today. And I've listened to some good music today.

Standing Your Ground Against Police
C'mon, he's carrying a firearm and and a camera while approaching a cop. That would be very threatening. He's harassing cops who are just trying to do their jobs.
