Worked w a Brit and as deer season approached other guys at work would swing by the lab to chat hunting and rifles.

My coworker from.across the pond asked why we Americans were so gun crazy.

I asked him why he seemed anti gun.

Told me when the IRA blew up a McDonalds it took out all his windows.

Said well.i guess that should make you anti bomb and not anti gun. He just stood there stunned. Not kidding, for a minute.

Total deer in headlights deal.
