Country wise Gun Ownership in the World: Generally people buy guns for self-defense. But now keeping guns has become a status symbol as well as a fashion. Some people also keep guns to show off and threaten others. Due to increase in weapons, violent incidents also increase in the society. In this case, America is the most victimized country, where citizens have the most weapons, and the most incidents of mass shooting happen here.
However, it is also a fact that gun culture has been promoted more by illegal weapons than by licensed weapons. These days Serbia is in discussion regarding gun culture, where there have been incidents of firing twice in a week and there is an atmosphere of fear in the whole country.
