[QUOTE]Originally posted by 92MaroonGT: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by cobraracer46: [qb] In Japan, you cannot buy a handgun, much less an assault rifle. In fact, even off-duty police officers are banned from carrying guns. You can buy a shotgun or an air rifle, but it is not easy: First, you have to take a class and a written exam. Then there's a skill test at a shooting range Next is a drug test Then a mental evaluation. Assuming you pass all those tests, you file with the police, who then run a background check. No wonder Japan has one of the lowest gun ownership rates in the world. But does it work? In 2008, the U.S. had 12,000 gun-related murders. Japan had 11. More than double that number were killed in the massacre in Newtown, Connecticut. [/qb][/QUOTE]I bet it has something to do with them not having a military too? [/QB][/QUOTE]
