I know I'm a little late to the party here...lol, but what was the point of the two videos again?...lol.
Sorry Steve...just kiddin'...kind of.
Just a note about that second video of the kids in Russia. I've actually spent quite a bit of time in Russia...and I mean in real old fashioned Russia (not just Moscow). The fact that these kids can do this doesn't surprise me. Of all the countries I have been in (almost 30), Russia is still the strangest and most surreal place I have ever been. Anyway...just a word to compare to the USA...I never did see anybody carrying a gun in Russia...other than security guards at the hotels and factories where I was staying/working. I've been to 48 of the US states, and I have seen lots of people with guns...just about every place I worked in Florida I met a guy that had a gun laying on the seat of his truck/car.
In the US, one might worry about being killed by a gun...but in Russia, I think you'd be just as likely to be killed by a 2x4, a crowbar, or with somebody's bare hands...lol. No joke.
As a resident of cold and boring old Canada, we sure do have a different culture here. I'm not saying it's better or worse, just different. I am currently waiting for my rPAL licence, so I guess you could say I'm "pro-gun"...lol.
Anyway...having spent a great deal of time in much of the USA, and quite a bit in Russia, I can say that the two countries are so shockingly different, I don't think you could compare them in any meaningful way.
