One of the differences I have noticed between the USA and other western nations that have at least a modicum of firearm possession and use: most of the rest of use don't fetishise firearms to the extent that what appears to be the vast majority (although is probably "just" a loud significant minority) of Americans do.
Seriously, you'd think their entire identity and penis length is based around it. And the size of their ute, I suppose.
I can't speak to why. It doesn't make sense to me. I know the statistics, I tell people the statistics. They feel they are the exception to the statistics. Also, to be frank I think most of them (at least guys) get off on the illusion of the power it gives them.
Some people collect. Okay, sure. I guess I can understand that. Dangerous hobby you got there. Hope no kids are around. But, if you do it right, okay, whatever.
Some people hoard. Okay, you're Nicodimas and you are going to win the [insert your whatever type] Apocalypse cause of your mad Nostradamus' skills. I get it. You're an idiot, but mostly harmless.
Some people (mostly women) keep them for protection, but don't advertise that fact generally. Okay, I get that.
It's the ones who show up with their gun everywhere that I just can't wrap my head around. Why the fuck do you need a pistol in the grocery store? Why in the world are you packing at a kids baseball game? Probably wants to play hero and like I said above, despite being more likely to hurt themselves or an innocent bystander with that gun, they are the badass Rambo/John Wick exception to the rule.
Til their kid pulls out the gun and accidentally shoots their sister because the 5 minute trip into the store for Coors Light was all the time needed for the improbable but possible to happen. -

I'm not actually sure where it is from. But I've seen the "poor man's idea of a rich man" quote used about Trump and his gaudy taste more than once.
