    I was going to say, "Well parts of the US" but you kind of covered it.

    In Idaho you just walk into the Court House, give them like $40, fill out a sheet of paper and get fingerprinted. They do a background check and at some point in the next 2 months you get a permit to conceal carry a weapon.

    If that is too hard for you, you can just open carry it for nothing.

    In Wyoming, WY residents don't even need a permit to conceal or open carry.

    In Utah, you have to take a 4 hr conceal carry course that just teaches you some of the laws involved in concealed carry, never really talked about firearms even. And then do the paperwork and pay the money to get the permit. With a Utah permit you can conceal or open carry in schools. In fact if the elementary teacher, principle, whatever tries to stop you they get in trouble. Or you can just skip the hassle and open carry like Idaho and Wyoming.

    Hand dryers 'splatter' users with bacteria, scientists warn
    Leeds University found that airborne germ counts are 27 times higher around jet air dryers in comparison with the air around paper towel dispensers

    Modern hand dryers are much worse than paper towels when it comes to spreading germs, according to new University of Leeds research.
    Scientists from the University of Leeds have found that high-powered ‘jet-air’ and warm air hand dryers can spread bacteria in public toilets.
    Airborne germ counts were 27 times higher around jet air dryers in comparison with the air around paper towel dispensers.
    The study shows that both jet and warm air hand dryers spread bacteria into the air and onto users and those nearby.
    The research team, led by Professor Mark Wilcox of the School of Medicine, contaminated hands with a harmless type of bacteria called Lactobacillus, which is not normally found in public bathrooms. This was done to mimic hands that have been poorly washed.

    Subsequent detection of the Lactobacillus in the air proved that it must have come from the hands during drying. The experts collected air samples around the hand dryers and also at distances of one and two metres away.
    Air bacterial counts close to jet air dryers were found to be 4.5 times higher than around warm air dryers and 27 times higher compared with the air when using paper towels.
    Next to the dryers, bacteria persisted in the air well beyond the 15 second hand-drying time, with approximately half (48 per cent) of the Lactobacilli collected more than five minutes after drying ended. Lactobacilli were still detected in the air 15 minutes after hand drying.
    Professor Wilcox said: “Next time you dry your hands in a public toilet using an electric hand dryer, you may be spreading bacteria without knowing it. You may also be splattered with bugs from other people’s hands.
    “These findings are important for understanding the ways in which bacteria spread, with the potential to transmit illness and disease.”
    The research, funded by the European Tissue Symposium, was published in the Journal of Hospital Infection and presented at the Healthcare Infection Society (HIS) International Conference in Lyon, France.
    A spokesman for Dyson, which makes jet hand dryers, said: “This research was commissioned by the paper towel industry and its flawed.
    "They have tested glove covered hands, which have been contaminated with unrealistically high levels of bacteria, and not washed."

    Meh... Mythbusters did that test a while ago. We live with good and bad bacteria all day long. Our bodies are built to fight them off. Unless you're an antibiotic addict.
