It’s so nice living in a country where you needn't worry about things such as getting shot by an incompetent gun nut, a toddler, a psychopath, a homegrown terrorist, a robber, a pro-lifer, yourself, someone who's gone off his meds, a nervous trigger-happy parent, a jilted lover, a paranoid neighbor, someone you accidentally just cut off on the highway, a "pink supremist", a disgruntled employee, a secessionist, a gang member who's a lousy shot, the vice-president, a jumpy policeman . . .
