Gun Control

[Mollocephalus]

When you try to acquire gun license in Italy, well before you can even set foot in a gun store and buy one, you go through multiple checks. Failing just one of them will prevent you from ever getting the license or even join the military or the police.

The criteria are:

- Everyone in your family has to be clean. Cousin got jailed 20 years ago? no gun license for you.
- You are pressured multiple times by the police answering why do you need that license and what are you going to do with a gun, then go through a mental check.

Starting from these premises, which seem very logical to me, i always look at America as the odd one when it comes to gun regulations. The thing is guns are part of your culture in a way similar to how corrida is part of spanish culture. You love your guns and fabricate reasons why you need them, but it's quite apparent than even in self defense chances are you're safer without firearms.
