The US is not an 'entity' in that regard... and it doesn't HAVE an attitude... and expressing it that way does poor service to those many millions who object to the stupid attitude SOME Americans have - which is furthered by the millions spent by and in the name of the NRA in order to keep the $$$$$ flowing and promote that ".absurd stupid misinterpretation of a legal amendment ".

There are flaws & problems about and within the UK, but I don't start a dozen threads about them, and I certainly don't assume that the UK as an entity should be held up for ridicule for any of them. Why is that so hard to understand?
