kingshrubbTrump v. Greenland
mercIMO the biggest cultural difference is guns. Apparently there are liberals in the US who think nationalized healthcare, cheap or free university, paid parental leave, guaranteed long vacation, etc. is all wonderful. But, they love their guns so much that that would be a red line. They’d forfeit all the great things that a European socialist country has to offer if the deal also requires that they give up their guns.
SyntaxErrorI live in the socialist paradise Sweden and have three rifles for hunting, my wife has two, my mom three. Some of my friends have pistols for sports shooting. I don’t get why Americans think guns only exist in America.
Also, we currently have a right wing government.
Funny thing is that is was the social democrats who made the laws that anyone could own rifles for hunting as it used to be only the land owning people who had that right before, the parties on right opposed that because they were afraid the rifles would be used to start a revolution or something.
Does anybody in the country have the right to go to a store and get a gun without question? What makes the US unique is that the constitution is currently interpreted to mean that gun ownership is a right, and that the government can’t do anything to regulate it.
Except there are restrictions, which vary by state.
