Go google how many people die from guns in America each year to a country that does not allow guns...very big difference. Lets not forget the countless school shootings.
Because of your government.

Stop feeding the conspiracy theorist Multipas-esque idiot guys. Us Americans should not allow ourselves to let the groveling masses affect our thoughts. |

Everything you do as a U.S citizen is recorded in one way or another, they even have fake cell phone towers created just to record phone calls and pull text messages and the truth is a majority of this was done illegally and in secrecy from the citizens and some parts of the government. I won't sit here and quote all my evidence because you can go search Edward Snowden and read thousands of documents about it, Edward is also now classified as a terrorist in the United States because he tried to make the citizens aware that the government was doing this to them and violating several laws, freedom right? But by the same token, I understand this happens else where too and I know for a fact it occurs in Canada (Harper even passed a law that legalized it and helped people do it) so I can't say America is a bad country because of it as it's a global issue, but it does show that sense of freedom so many of you feel like you have is not really there and more so an illusion. America does have some freedom but it is highly over exaggerated, I will gladly admit that I think it's a pretty good country and is better than most places but it does have flaws, as do all countries. I don't have a problem with people talking about it being free either, the only problem I have is when someone is like "AMERICA IS SO FREEEEEEE MURICA' THE BEST COUNTRY OUT THERE!! SO MUCH BETTER THAN EVERYTHING ELSE!!! GUNS!! FREEDOM!!!" and are completely unaware of the shady stuff their own government does to them. |

Have you ever once been affected by this monitoring? I personally don't care at all, as I never plan on doing anything illegal that can lead to a warrant, in which case they can use this compiled evidence that otherwise isn't examined, this even coming from the ex-head of the NSA. In fact, nobody should really care unless they're scared that their illegal doings are going to get snuffed out by the government. You watching some sexual stuff? Government doesn't care. Having an emotional call with your girlfriend? Govt. does not care. That's what people don't understand. On paper it seems as if it's restricting, but as long as you're doing what you're supposed to do, which you should be anyway, that has literally no jurisdiction on your daily life, and therefore should not be considered a factor. |

Hiding information from your citizens on programs like these is also not acceptable, it isn't freedom when you aren't even aware of what your own government does and in some cases the government isn't even aware of what the government does. This takes away the freedom of privacy, something people should have. |

Ok this thread has officially surpassed the "All the things you are" in terms of blatant stupidity. I hereby award SomeGuy and DADA the Medal of Honor, be sure to break it open to check for hidden recorders and anthrax. |

No. Don't take away my rights.
If I'm shot tomorrow I'm not going to blame the gun, I'm going to blame the person holding the gun.. If I'm stabbed I'm not going to blame the knife, I'm going to blame the person who was holding the knife. |

Who do you blame then? The man or the fact that he is able to have a gun at those moments |
