Where’s the outrage gun activists??

Do you really need a bunch of numbers that are made up by bureaucrats to tell you where you would like to live ? That’s what rifle wants, just so he can argue semantics all day long.

Clearly, somebody isn't quite able to understand what "semantics" refers to.

I've gone over this already. Why do you keep hiding from reasonable questions about what things you take most into consideration for living in a place?

As Americans (or any other nationality), the people develop interests based on what the culture makes available. For me, it is American (especially college) football. I also have family/friends here. As I said, if you take those things away from me, I probably wouldn't be living in the U.S.

The same holds true for other countries. Tell a middle class South Korean guy that he can move anywhere in the world that he wants. Overwhelmingly, he will choose to stay in South Korea. Why? Because he has grown accustomed to his culture, has interests based on that culture, and has his family/friends near.

So asking an American (or any person from any other country) where they'd rather live is illogical. Outside of people in poor/persecuted situations, they will most likely choose to stay put.

As I have already said twice, there are a list of things most people put as their top factors in ranking and/or deciding where to live. Outside of family/friends, those things are crime/safety, healthcare, education, income potential vs. cost of living, freedom, environment/cleanliness.

When you compare the U.S. to a handful of other countries around the world, America doesn't measure up cumulatively in those. It doesn't mean the U.S. is a shithole. It doesn't exclude the U.S. from doing a lot of things well. It just means that there are some other countries who do those things that most people consider the most important better than us.

Now, are you going to answer the very basic questions or are you going to hide like you did for explaining why you are against the bump stock ban?
 
nowhere else I would want to live. Not even a question. Might visit but not would to live there.

If you want to live in a foreign country go to Las Vegas or Orlando.
 
nowhere else I would want to live.

And no one here is saying that. All we are saying is there are some things other nations do better, and some things we do better. BC, being a hillbilly, immediately went into MURICA, LUV IT OR LEAVE IT mode.

It's not like we haven't borrowed ideas from others before. That whole Reischsautobahn thing Ike really liked is one example.
