America isn't the only country in the world with hardware stores yet is still the only country in the world with weekly mass shootings -- 80% of which use legally purchased firearms and 0% of which use home made guns.

Except comments where I use a % -- those still have a conspicuously positive score. I wonder if someone's sleazy tools are being thrown off by it?
