No, it means I don't care what you have to say. Sometimes a dropping mask is a very unpretty sight.
What 'they' do elsewhere is irrelevant.
This is our country, and we have done things differently from any country in the world.
While other systems have had some limited success, our culture is unique and has bailed out much of the free world at one time or another, militarily.
We have our Constitution, and despite our government of late ignoring it as much as possible, many of us have not, and we intend to keep it--and our Rights--as intended by those very wise men who wrote it.
It was intentionally a different system from any that had been in practice in Europe, simply because the nations of Europe regularly went through serious upheavals.
They have their systems, their governments, and if people think that is so much better, then leave, with our blessings.
Why would we want to emulate that which we left, why go back to systems doomed to failure when we already have a workable system?
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. It isn't the Second Amendment nor the right to own a firearm that needs to be fixed, it is a culture which has other people problems, and taking away one tool (because aside from a make-work project on the order of the WPA for clerks and door-kickers, that is the aim of a gun registry) will only force those problem people to find creative, new, and even more hideous ways to do their dastardly deeds.
There are other, even more effective ways to harm people besides guns.
