A look at America's love affair with firearms and the pathology of violence in the United States, which as a country, has the highest gun-murder rate in the world. The question of why Canada--with 7 million guns for its total of 10 million households--doesn't suffer from the same horrific gun violence, that its large neighbor to the south experiences, is examined.
