Exactly.
It is more an issue of the gun culture than anything else.
In Israel and Switzerland for example, guns are found in virtually every home because of mandatory conscription and reserve duty. Nevertheless, we don’t have these kinds of crimes there to any great degree.
They do not share our gun culture, the need for cowboy like vigilante justice and they don’t tolerate an individual’s fantasy as a ‘right’.
