I’d say it started with Harlan Carter. He was the one who decided that the NRA should be all about the profits of gun manufacturers, and not about safe and sane gun culture.
Gun culture is just a different and insane thing in the US. We have a bit of it in Canada and gun issues in the cities, but guns are highly regulated here, maybe too much in some specific aspects. I’m in favor of less restrictions for historical pieces similar to historical cars where you can apply for that status.
Where I’m from lots of people have guns but there’s not really a gun culture, they’re basically used for animal defense. Last incident I know of was a deliriously sick coyote getting in to a horse paddock in daylight.

You just know there’s so many Americans with guns who can’t wait to kill someone for the right reason in the most violent way, it’s like their fantasy.
I was listening to an American at a work outing once who got inspected at the Canadian border, and she was ranting about how they thought she had a gun and were checking everywhere. I’m sympathizing cause that sucks, then she’s like “but they never checked my purse where I kept my gun!” and it’s like fuck sakes woman, you certainly made your point…
