Why are you americans so proud?

So basically i just have a 2 questions concerning guns and freedom and USA in general. I'm not trying to start a debate or similar i just want to know your opinion because me as a swiss don't really get why you guys allways have to rage if somebody says something against the US or somebody tries to touch your guns These are my questions: 1. What to you have against gun registrations and better background checks? it's not like they take away all your guns 2. What's so special about your freedom? Do you honestly think that other countrys like england,germany and such have less or another kind of freedom that doesn't even compare because it's so much worse? please enlighten me.

  • 1. Background checks are already required and make sense. The dumb laws like the Assault Weapons Ban make absolutely no sense and do nothing to curb any sort of violence. They're just a nuisance. People also worry that the government would impose such strict regulations within the background checks that very few people, if anyone, could own guns, effectively banning them. 2. I don't think England, Germany, Norway, etc. are any worse than the US. Many countries do things much better than the US, such as healthcare and education. I just enjoy having my right to bear arms. It gives me a much better chance of defending myself should something bad ever happen, although I truthfully hope that I never have to use a gun to defend myself. It also gives me a really fun activity. Going target shooting with friends and family is great fun.
