But that, I guess, is the fundamental difference in cultures and upbringing.

I'm sorry but your attitude is pathetic. What shocks me is how disrespectful some people are towards other people's interests. Just because you don't like firearms it doesn't mean that they're bad or not moral. I for one wouldn't be too happy to think that my government, which I elected and gave power to give me a better society, doesn't trust me with my own fundamental rights and decides to deprive me of stuff for the sake of better (theirs) control, not safety. You really need to be blind not to see this.

nope, unfortunately there's immigrant and immigrant, even if people are SO scared of making distinctions based on race and provenience here (and it's not like they don't think of them, it's just that they don't have the attributes to voice them cos they're not politically correct).. if anything I provide this country with highly specialised work skills that locals are too lazy to learn, and my taxes go towards many of those lazy useless waste of spaces out there that live off benefits, so bite me.
