@freetalklive: the way you make it sound, i would never want to live in NH. the thought of almost everyone around owning a gun is a little unsettling to me. "safest and freest" or not. im cool with other people owning guns as long as they know what they are doing. but it think maybe we should enact a test or something that proves your smart enough to own a gun...just a thought.....

However, i would much rather live in the U.S. than any other country in the world regardless of the crime. what can i say, i like it here.

I have a friend that is now 16.  When he was 15, he father gave him a gun and my friend started open carrying it on his waist, everywhere he went.  No problem with me :)

Some people just don't want freedom and safety, which is fine.  Other thing which I consider a plus, but most people would think is a negative, most people in NH take their garbage to the town dump, or pay someone else to do it.  This might also scare you.  In NH, the state parks are paid for by user fees (only state like that in the US).  In NH, if you are hiking a mountain and get injuried, and it can be proved that you made mistakes, you get a bill for your rescue.  Or how about this, the Governor only serves two years (unlike 4 years in every other state).  Or the State Senators and State Reps only make $100 in salary a year (plus travel expenses).

However, on the videogame front, the world's largest arcade is located in NH, http://www.edge-online.com/magazine/inside-world%E2%80%99s-largest-arcade  Funspot rocks!


i dont really care what people do with their garbage in NH, nor how you pay for your parks in NH, nor how you handle health care in NH, nor how much time your politicians serve for or how much they get paid in NH, nor how your friend handled a gun in NH. im just saying that everybody owning a gun is a little unsettling to me. i think anybody who doesnt know how to handle a gun properly (i.e. the girl's "parents") shouldnt be allowed to own one. obviously you and your friends know how to handle guns. congrats on that. like i said, im cool with people owning guns....as long as they know what they are doing with them.

also, based on your logic, everyone who chooses not to own a gun or just doesnt have one is afraid of freedom and safety.....really?...... I feel totaly free and safe in my tiny town in Michigan. and guess what, very few people own guns! i dont need a gun to feel free or safe. obviously you do...thats your choice. but please stop trying to say that the onl wayy people can be safe and free is by owning a gun.
