"It is widely agreed that the United States has an exceptional gun culture. Although Great Britain is America’s “mother country,” the two nations have very different arms cultures. Why so? Historically, two reasons were especially important in the early colonial period:

1. The practical differences between conditions in America and in Great Britain.
2. The influence of American Indians."

Thanks OP for a good read. Emphasises why governments would keep their citizens unarmed.
As always I enjoy the biased and ignorant liberal comments following the article.

Great read.

Kopel and Volokh are the only two real journalists at WaPo.

I guess they have to keep them around to show they are 'fair and balanced', but they sure don't promote their articles. Probably because they would show up the rest if the writers as pathetic idiots.

Yep, those liberal leftist Democrap Socialist feel and emote with far little understanding of actual factual history.

The American Revolution began when Americans used their firearms to resist house-to-house gun and powder confiscation at Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775. The attempted confiscation was part of a royal plan to disarm America, set in motion by King George III’s October 1774 embargo on the shipment of firearms and gunpowder to America.

It was firearms and ammunition bans followed by attempted governmental confiscation that sparked our revolution.

Try not to forget that bitches.
