Most governments restrict the private ownership of firearms. Few nations allow the freedom that Americans enjoy in this regard. This is because we are still a functioning democracy (for now). Many governments fear armed revolution (which they call insurrection) by their own people because of their tyrannical rule. Many such developing nations retain large defense forces for the primary purpose of controlling their own people.
You're right!
Down here in the Peoples Democratic Socialist Dictatorship of Australia we can hear the jackboots thumping as we cower, totally unarmed, in our hovels waiting for the next ominous knock on the door.
