Its the fault of a country that lets anyone of its population own and buy guns. Especially as 95% probably shouldn't be trusted with a gun.
That's the major difference in philosophy between most of Europe and the US. Here the government doesn't "let" the population do anything. It's the population which "lets" the government do things.

On a secondary note, approximately 45% of US citizens own guns. So you are saying that 38,475,000 of those who do own guns can't be trusted? (Based on an estimated 300 million population.) That's a pretty large number of folks you've throw under the bus. Be very careful when making large sweeping statements, hyperbola tends to creep in.
