May I correct 2 glaring inaccuracies though
Britain's treatment of their colonies in the 20th C cannot be said to be analogous to the response in the late 18th C when tax-dodging entrepreneurs thought up a wizard jape to get richer - form a new country. As I see it the US has been ploughing this furrow ever since!
As for 'pulling our bacon out of the fire' a couple of times - so you blinking well should have, in return for us not intervening on the side of the Confederacy!
The standard British reply to this old chestnut contains the words: late, self-interest, seeking allies to legitimise its own interests, expensive reparations, historically anti-British and Ol Joe Kennedy. Feel free to arrange these words in a set of phrases that accurately represents US popular attitudes towards Britain through the late 19th and first half of the 20th Centuries.Kris Meeke got fired -PSG so terrified they quit!

BDunnel, I have been away from this for a while. I come back and see nothing has changed. You keep going on about how the attitudes of Americans about guns are "alien" to you, and how you don't understand how people can "live in fear", etc.
Why can't you see that your attitude is utterly alien to us? That we think it is incomprehensible that you live in such fear of guns that you must beg your governments to take them away from you? Why can't you see that despite some great tragedies, that LEGAL gun ownership in this country is completely safe, that the chances of this sort of tragedy happening is less than the chances of being struck by lightning? Why is it so hard for you to allow us to live our lives? Why must you force your morals on us?The overall technical objective in racing is the achievement of a vehicle configuration, acceptable within the practical interpretation of the rules, which can traverse a given course in a minimum time. -Milliken

I for one live absent of fear in my own very well protected home....
As far as our American attitude... Many of us really could care less what folks think of our attitude or our laws. Our laws are OUR laws, no one elses and that is what matters to us. Personally I wish we would mind our own damn business more often, if others would do the same. I feel no obligation what so ever to amend our laws to pander to outside interests so outsiders feel safe. We'll decide what makes us feel safe and how we we accomplish that within our laws. Unfortunately, when a country has been attacked, not everyone is going to like the response.HINCHTOWN!!

This is not a case of 'forcing my morals on you'. It's merely a suggestion that lives might better be lived without guns.
