re: #510 Lord Of The Pies

Just about the only people who carry guns in Israel are military personnel on active duty.

That said, the guy from Budget Rental Car who came over to cable-start our rental car, had a handgun in his pants waistband.

I notice that a lot of those supposed “paradises” for gun ownership include the sort of actual restrictions that, if you proposed them here, would get you tarred and feathered in under an hour. Psychiatric evals. Limits on the number and types of guns you can own. Strict guidelines on where you can carry your gun and how it can be used. And the general reality that most of those “paradises” are big on gun culture because they are small and rely upon a conscripted military force that is effectively always on reserve until they get past a certain age.
