False Sense of security is the USA's middle name.. Look at the right to bear arms for example.. This has to be one of the biggest mistakes a nation can do in todays day and age.. Because once you do it, and turn the culture into accepting and needing a gun under their pillow to feel secure it is very hard to pry that away from them. Given from what I understand it might have served a purpose a few centuries ago, but today it is absolutely ridiculous.. And the few people that want to defend it go right ahead because explaining this is like trying to justify what we do to for a living to some southern biblethumping christian. It just isn't going to happen, not because they are bad people, or because we are right and they are wrong, but because it is something that has been so ingrained into their lives since they were born that their brain is almost unable to wrap itself around an opposite and logical argument..
Either way, the USA is built on a very large false sense of security through media propaganda, their brainwashing government and god knows what else..
Not to say that most countries in the world aren't like this, and not to say that there are no doubt MORE countries in the world that are MUCH much much MUCH worse.. but we aren't talking about them right now
