I loved this. Why is it so hard to be civilized? In Japan people were wearing masks even before the pandemic. And I doubt even if they were allowed to own a semiautomatic weapon, they’ll be so embarrassed to be such an ass, they wouldn’t.
They also have a monolithic society and closed borders. They have very strong family oriented society and rarely is a child brought up in a fatherless home. Those aspects are way more important than the gun laws.
