Thats more like the population of Texas spread out over the size of the US... considerably less population density.

Not exactly.
Most of Canada's population sits just north of the border.
The further north you go the fewer people you'll find. The weather up there isn't very people friendly.
I bet most of Canada's population lives within many fewer square miles than Texas has.
DT.
If the entire population of the world were put into the land area of Texas, each person would have an area equal to the floor space of a typical U.S. home and the population density of Texas would be about the same as Paris, France.

But I am fixing to buy one, for hunting. It does not bother me one bit that people carry guns, it is their choice. I choose not to, but can see why they do. I won't carry because I don't want to have to deal with the after effects of acually having to use it.
But in America we have the choice.

People talk alot of bad thinks about guns. NO one talks about automoblies, guessing 1 bullet equal 1 person in one shot, and 1 automoblie equals many people in one shot, you do the math. I use a 12ga with number 6 shot, yes number 6 it will do the trick. will not travel thur normal walls. For an apartment I think a 410 shotgun would be perfect.

If you gave a person 1500 sq feet, you could fit 18,585 people per sq mile
if you gave them 1000 sp feet you could fit 27,878.4 people per sq mile
Texas is approx 268,581 sq miles
Thats a lot of people, granted there would be no place to drive
Population to the earth is Approx 5,943,159,879 in 1998
I tried to do the math and i got this number 18,585 people per sq mile x 268,581 sq mile 4,991,577,885 thats giving ever one 1500 sq feet
27,878.4 people per sq mile x 268,581sq miles = 7,487,608,550 at 1000 sq feet so yes it is possible, granted their would be no other place for other stuff
