Talking to German friends:

“I hear Bavaria is like the Texas of Germany?”
“Oh no, not at all. Bavaria is not scary!”
“Do … do you guys think Texas is scary?”
“…….”

@tiffanycli We Bavarians know how we would behave if we had unrestricted access to firearms. That's why we are scared of Texas

Texas is about in the middle when it comes to gun deaths per capita by state, in between Michigan and Illinois. highest rates are Mississippi, Louisiana, New Mexico, Alabama, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana.
