Also, despite American conceptions, the Scandinavians have some of the highest rates of private ownership of firearms in the world. Finland is second only to the United States.

True about Finland. I should have mentioned that not all Scandinavian countries can be lumped together in that regard.

(The most violent parts of the world tend to have some of the lowest rates of private ownership of firearms. It's harder to massacre and intimidate townspeople when they're all armed.)

Of course. It's a shame that too many non-Americans ridicule America's traditions of private gun ownership, rugged individualism and self-reliance, when those are actually among the laudable aspects of American culture (yes, it does exist).
