Some do seem obsessed, I'll give you that, but for most I'd say it's a case of being "critical of" rather than "obsessed over."
The problem with many of the foreign critics though is that few if any really know "how it is" in the USA with regard to guns, gun ownership, their indominable defense of their rights and constitutional amendments, etc. To know that and furthermore even begin to understand it is to first know their history... all of it.
Some say "Well I've been in the US, I've visited there for ___ weeks before"... sorry, that doesn't qualify you as informed enough to sit in judgement. I've lived 90 mins from the US border all my life, I've travelled all over that country over the past several decades and know many dozens of Americans, both friends and relatives. And in all that I know for sure only 2 things on the gun issue --- Banning isn't the answer there, and it never will be.
