    I don’t know how people live like that, I’d be putting bulletproof glass in my windows, and reinforcing the walls with inch thick steel plates to keep from getting killed on the toilet while reading the times by a stray bullet.

      The cognitive dissonance over guns isn’t the worst one, though – it’s the part where a traffic accident on the parkway could leave you in the hospital through no fault of your own, and bankrupt soon after; and that this could happen any time during your car-based commute, morning and night, even if you had a good third-party insurance carrier who didn’t wriggle out of paying for care.
