Foreigners cannot understand American gun culture, or find us barbaric for clinging to it. It is like how outlanders cannot fully understand American racism, as they do not have the experiences we have with it.
Blacks used to have separate water fountains up until the late 60s. Alot of folks are still resisting this change.
It is what makes up our fabric, good or bad.
Guns is an American tradition.
I will say this, rural areas are very liberal with guns, come to Jersey and see the hoops I had to navigate and money I had to pay, red tape and bull-stuff to own my guns.
My cousin in Alabama can just walk into a walmart.
(edit: I own a so called "assault rifle (though I have no plans of assaulting anybody, I hate that term), because it is goddam fun to shoot, I murder paper targets with it, and giggle like a child as I do it.
