By "gun culture", are they referring to the bling bling wildly brandished, gold plated Colt 45 toting gangster stereotype?
Or the unexciting, law-abiding, John Q Public who shoots at the range...who takes time out of his personal life to get educated on firearms at classes and courses so that he may better protect himself and others, and inform others?
If the former, I don't support that gun culture either. If the later, I see nothing wrong with it.
