Not exactly. I can see why you'd say that, but Americans weren't gun nuts until around the 1910s to 1920s. At that point the right wing decided they needed a better red herring than the Mexican Border, and started pushing the 2nd amendment bullshit they've been on ever since.
You're still doing it. Except to be clear: you didn't point out shit. You said some vacuous "they needed a red herring" shit about the 2nd amendment without any explanation of why they did, why they picked that, or even really who they were. And you didn't correct shit either. Aside from an equally vacuous "You're wrong."
