Now what I will say here may offend you my dear chez mon ami, as you are americanne but I will still say it. We did not have a rebellion and traitor leading our countrie, the loyalist always remained uttermost obedient to the monarchy and resolved our issues through the Dominion of Canada status, which we achieved through diplomatic means. Americanne already had a gun culture as exhibited by the action of traitorous states that openly rebelled against the empire and thus the seeds of culture are there. Also do not mistake me to yank hater, I am simply pointing out that gun culture is not foreign but rather indigenous.
Now my turn to ask a question , Why did america completely rebel against the Empire, it still puzzles me when the empire was much more soft on the north americanne colonies compare to l'asie in contrast and yet they still remained loyal until 1946 I believe.
First answer this....why so much dislike for the US??? No matter what the US does, at the end of the day it is and will always be one of the greatest nations in this world. It has paved the way to freedom for so many other countries!
