As someone said, there are very different cultures acros the countries... Here in Belgium, it's pretty hard to have a gun... recently, people had to bring them back du to a new law, even when it was only some old family souvenir (unless they had some kind of paper I guess, but no one had it). That law has changed since then but all those old guns have alredy been destroyed ^_^ Anyway, it is forbidden to use it even to protect yourself against some burglar... Even cops cannot keep their guns at the end of the day (even if they are still supposed to act if they see some criminal action... this is so stupid !). Well, we are pretty good in making stupid laws I guess 
However, I've never owned a gun, I don't know anyone who has one and I don't intend to have one in the future...
Nevertheless, I love shooters and violent games
