Best Answer

The phrase 'gun culture' covers the acceptance people have of firearms. Gun ownership is part of American culture. Obviously, those who own guns are in favour of the right to own guns - and many of those who don't own a gun see no reason to stop others owning them.

"..... culture" is used to mean that something is so deeply embedded in a certain society that it would be most difficult to change it. Ireland has a Christian culture - can you imagine the effort it might take to change that to either another, or no, religion?

Slavery was a "culture", as was child labour, in many societies - but they were changed.

Of course, not all "..... cultures" are bad - sporting cultures are internationally similar, as are many religious cultures.
