Off-topic, but Americans literally are shooting each other in the streets. More americans have died in gun homicides than died in all wars since, and including WW2. Include suicides, and gun violence exceeds all US war deaths ever.

Some Americans in some areas. My experience has been if you do not get involved with buying or selling drugs, you will be pretty safe.

Which I guess is the point of the war on drugs, but that hasn't worked out so well.

Hmm.. the point of it, or result of it?
