US Problems Ig. In Germany, we have (too) many nazis and a few gun people, but the intersection between these two group is at least not as big that non-nazis have to arm themselves. Yet.

Unfortunately in the US many trans and trans-supporting people do view guns as potentially necessary. Glorification of trans murder is common among the right-wing here and they definitely are armed.

There are smth like 20M weapons in Germany AFAIK. Hunters, police, legacy owners, farmers et al, are among those.

Wikipedia says 1 gun on 5 people in Germany vs. 6 on 5 people in the US.
