Even setting aside America’s bullshit Medical industry, yanks have really weird ideas about freedom.
As an Australian the American concept of freedom always seemed nuts, even pre-Trump. Yes American’s have the freedom to carry firearms, but I much prefer the Australian freedom to live without fear of being shot.
Ah, yeah I suspect a lot of Australian’s do that too.
Perhaps not over the speed limit, but loads of drivers definitely feel as though they’re entitled to zoom around right on the limit and any impediment to their passage is an outrageous insult.
I hate that when the world thinks of the US, they think of these 2A freaks. I get why it happens but I still hate it.
The one thing I’ll push back on is your last point. Pretty much no one is afraid of getting shot. Gun violence IS an issue but it’s not affecting 99.9% of people

Not to mention their ridiculous belief in their right to drive over the speed limit without consequences. Canada included.

Americans do not fear being shot on the daily either.
Maybe if they did, something would be done about all the shootings
