    In New Zealand we've got a fairly high rate of gun ownership but very strict licensing & storage. And banned semi auto rifles since 2019. Number of school shootings since 1840 = ZERO. It's Guns +poor licensing/control + something very bad culturally

    Dear Wealthy Nigeria The good health and safety of your driver and his family should now be a personal concern for you. You are no longer at another level. Yes... this applies to your security guard and the aide handing you your stuff. Welcome to Nigeria
