On in America. If they didn't have such stupid gun laws then the police and general public wouldn't be going around terrorising kids with toy guns. kmt

Um, what exactly do America's gun laws have to do with 12 year olds carrying around "toy" guns that are basically replicas of the real thing... and waving them around in public terrorizong OTHERS to the point that someone felt the need to call the cops in the first place??

It's not obvious?  The number of guns in circulation in the US is basically enough for every man woman and child to have one.  Given that fact, police unfortunately have to be hyper sensitive to any report of someone with a possible firearm.  Whereas, in countries where private firearm ownership are prohibited, or in the very least, highly restricted, it's reasonable to assume that the police wouldn't have to assume the worst every time they receive a report of a kid brandishing a firearm.
