Thanks for the request to answer.I can say it is not as bad as others make it out to be. Guns have saved my life and I have used guns to save the lives of others. That you can read all about here and the links within.Frank Macera's answer to If other democratic countries are doing quite well with strict gun control laws, then why are most US citizens so paranoid about implementing it? Have they lost faith in their government or in 911 emergency services?I understand that its unfathomable to people that live outside of the United states a country with guns, the second amendment, the right to defend yourself. No other country is like the United States. No other country was built off of pirating, brothels, taverns and rebellion like we are.Some might say oh but pirates and the birth of the United States have nothing to do with one another. They'd be wrong. The continental Congress gave something like 1700 letters of marque to pirate British ships. 800 vessels are known to of engaged in piracy 600 British ships captured or destroyed. Why pirates we had no navy against the best navy in the world at the time.The first shots of the revolutionary war took place not 10 miles from where I live. The hms gaspee run aground trying to stop smuggling. The gaspee was the 3rd ship we attacked. The others were the hms st John, and hms liberty. The gaspee attack was planned in the Sabin tavern.Benjamin Franklin huge lover of uh bawdy houses as they were called. George washington had “camp followers” who tended to wounds, cooking, mending/laundering clothes, and daliances. In fact these soldiers engaging in daliances was so common that the soldiers would slip away to go to brothels. Punishment was the army would deduct from your pay mainly because of stds and deserting for a few hours.The united state's was forged from this colorful history. The thing that really set this nation in stone was the use of firearms.The movie the patriots protagonist benjamin Martin was loosely based off of very real men. Thomas sumpter, Daniel Morgan, Andrew Pickens, and that old swamp fox Francis Marion.Very facinating history and much of it has a gun behind It.Many think with so many guns that I would be scared of getting shot. I carry a gun. Its part of my daily life. I work fixing guns and selling guns. I collect guns and love the history behind them. I am a law abiding American. I dont do drugs. I havent had alcohol since July. I dont get involved in anything illegal and because of that I do not fear guns.I am more scared of getting in my car and going for a drive then being shot. I have seen people stop in the roundabout/rotary.I have literally seen people stop to let another car into the rotary. I have seen people make right hand turns on signs that say no turn on red and get creamed because they made a blind right turn infront of someone. My first 3 years of driving. I got hit by a girl trying to over take me. I was rear ended by a drunk driver who smashed my car into a concrete and wood abuttment holding up a building totaling the front end and had a Turkey become a window ornament and had to go get itty bitty shards of glass removed from my eyes at the hospital.Not many americans fear guns. The ones that do know nothing about guns. We once feared sailing off the edge of the world cause the world was flat. We once feared the dark cause of gremlins goblins and grumpkins waiting to eat us. We once sacrificed one another or animals for rain and a good harvest, the blessings of the divine. Knowledge is very important in all things.As for living here while I may of strayed off topic. You could not pay me enough to live in any other country in the world. It is amazing living here.Edit: I was emailed shortly after posting and asked why the history lesson. You really need to understand true american history. The gritty unabridged none white washed history of the United States to truly comprehend the second amendment. Examples below:"What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms."- Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, December 20, 1787Another good one"The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."- Thomas Jefferson, Commonplace Book (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria), 1774-1776Or"I enclose you a list of the killed, wounded, and captives of the enemy from the commencement of hostilities at Lexington in April, 1775, until November, 1777, since which there has been no event of any consequence ... I think that upon the whole it has been about one half the number lost by them, in some instances more, but in others less. This difference is ascribed to our superiority in taking aim when we fire; every soldier in our army having been intimate with his gun from his infancy."- Thomas Jefferson, letter to Giovanni Fabbroni, June 8, 1778While your able to understand a quote you miss a lot without the historical context of the events surrounding it."Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of."- James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788Last two quotes just cause I like sharing history. The first one though seems very relevant today as it did then."Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves."- William Pitt (the Younger), Speech in the House of Commons, November 18, 1783Last one“Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.... The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able might have a gun."- Patrick Henry, Speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 5, 1778
