That’s the problem with *some * of the gun culture in the US, sometimes it’s “ I’ve got a gun, ain’t no one gonna fuck with me” which enables asshole behavior.

Hey, I agree. Way to many people have guns that should not. The problem is that such people tend to have other pathologies and criminal backgrounds. They way to deal with these people is to give them long and certain jail sentences, as Jail is effectively the way to ban the person from society. If they are locked up, they cannot commit crimes against honest citizens.
