Common peaple buy AK 47s.
Do you have to prove that your line of work or place you living in require gun for protection for geting permit?
But yeah freedom can be vewed the way you describe it for the good and the bad that comes with it.
In USA guns are very much cultural thing.

The majority of people buy guns for protection and hunting. In the USA, we have too many criminals and nutjobs that like to go around mass shooting. Last year, I was across the street at a gas mart, when someone went on a shooting rampage at the store across the street. The guy shooting was a previous employee pissed off about getting fired. He shot one man pumping gas, two people inside the store and shot the owner point blank in the face with a shotgun. He then blew his head off. I could've easily pulled in there instead of the other store, so I started carrying concealed again for awhile.
You have to get a license for a handgun in my state, but only a permit to conceal carry. You can open carry any legal gun, shotgun, AK's, etc...However, anyone can buy a pistol, ect., on the street. People buy and trade firearms all the time under the table.
