In the US we’ve decided we are good with people dying so people can have guns. This is their version of that.

When Europeans are like “our homes are old and not built for ac.” …. Homes in Asian countries are also old but they adapted to AC.

@Jesse_P :
Because Europe thinks AC is ruining the planet … delusional, just buy a portable AC or 2, and DEFINITELY install them in hospitals and retirement homes, why is that even a debate.
