This is a much more nuanced view than a “total ban” honytawk suggested. I completely agree this should be the norm.

There’s definitely many sane countries that have “strict” gun control. But that’s very different to a “total ban”.
That is definitely not true. Even in Australia, which has some of the strictest gun laws, we don’t have a “total ban”. If you have a legitimate reason to have a firearm, you can get a license. And yes, legitimate reasons can include “guns are fun” - it just means that if that is your reason, the gun is only used at a gun club, and you can’t walk around the streets with it.
Edit: reading your other posts, it seems you mean “carried in population centres”. Stored and/or used in controlled environments within population centres, and even open carried by appropriately licences individuals (eg police) is still a far cry from a “total ban”.
What country has a “total” ban on firearms?
The emulators contain Potassium Benzoate
The XKCD one is interesting, but seems to be missing the transfer to/from the storage medium sent by FedEx.
If I want to move data from my computer to yours over the internet, the internet bandwidth between our devices/networks is the main consideration. If I’m FedExing SD cards or HDDs, I’ve also gotta take into account the transfer times to get the data ONTO those devices.
I wonder how the analysis would fair when taking into account:
- speed of internet
- TB/kg of storage
- storage medium transfer speeds

English lacks a formal plural form of “you”, and while Australia has its own informal variation (“youse”), I’m a big fan of y’all.

Not sure about USA law, but in Australia we would call that “obtaining financial advantage by deception”. Otherwise known as “fraud”.
