The side effects of such widespread gun usage in the US are a bummer, but at least that proliferation of guns protected your country from being overrun by a tyrannical facist government.

It's amazing how well their gun culture stopped the tyrannical dictatorship from teaching taking over!!!!

The gun culture is the fascists. So yeah it was a success.

Step one was convincing these paranoid morns that the "real fascists" were people asking other politely to stop using slurs.

Hard to believe nothing didn't work. Back to the drawing board, maybe we can try caving to the demands of the rich and connected, the middle of the road voters surely want to get screwed without consent by the rich, but with gay marriage and more concern expressed about people getting hurt. Where is liz cheney, we can use her as the running mate, this is going to work great.
