Now that you clarified yourself, I kind of agree. Stupid people should not get firearms, and the difference between America and other countries (as far as I can tell) is not that guns are controlled better elsewhere but that citizens are more responsible. I think the variable is not access to firearms so much as cultural stupidity.

And while we're at it, I think they should not be allowed access to air or water either.
