Yes Brian, it's exactly what I've said, repeating Dan's words.
That initial *here* in my phrase was not referred to America (apparently I'm not
American), rather to Italy... and probably to all Europe. You also enforce my
impression about the *fear* Americans have of their government.
I don't know about anyone in Italy who claims the right to own guns to
eventually fight the government.... repeat, *here* it sounds strange.
