You know more than I do. I knew of a single grenade brought into school, but only to show his mates.

No we definitely have issues that we need to resolve here in the states, but what I was getting at is Europe shouldn’t act like their farts don’t stink as well.

Sweden is just one example off the top of my head, but I’m sure anyone with an internet browser could find examples of gun/explosives violence elsewhere in Europe.

Absolutely. Europe isn't perfect and has many of its own problems and has done so for hundreds of years. However, we're currently going through our greatest period of peace, and I would feel relatively safe anywhere (not counting western Ukraine or Russia). This is partly down to strict gun controls and single digit mass shootings per decade.
