We don’t have a strong gun culture. We have a lot of guns pers capita but those are mostly shotguns and hunting rifles. The vast majority of people don’t own guns but the ones that do have many.
What we do have however is a strong competent military and a border that due to its terrain would be an absolute pain to try invade us thru. NATO membershit helps too.
During winter war soviet general hears someone shouting from wood - “One finnish soldier is better than ten soviet”. Angry general sends ten man to deal with annoying Fin. After short period of shots and dying soviets screams, comes another shout - “One finnish soldier is better than hundred soviet”. General sends hundred soldier and again none of them comes back. Then general hears third shout - “One finnish soldier is better than thousand soviets”. Furious general sends thousand man to deal with him. This time one of his soldiers manage to survive and reports to general - “Sir, please don’t send more of our troops, it’s a trap, there’s two of them”.

What’s that funny story again about one Finnish soldier in the woods decimating 1000 Russian soldiers?
