But not unexpected.

Your interlocutor says:

A very liberal county where we dont tolerate gunplay

and you say:

You say This isn't the Wild West but you don't live in the US.

And you're basing that statement on ... the fact that your interlocutor lives in a very liberal county?

COUNTY? See it? Not COUNTRY?

The only place in the world where someone would talk about living in "a very liberal county" is the US. Trust me. In Canada, we wouldn't know what a county was, unless we're rather old. And we really don't talk about where we live in terms of what degree of "liberal" it is. In the UK, ditto; nobody would talk about the county they live in, or how "liberal" it is, in that manner.

Nobody else but a resident of the US would talk about "the streets of America" either, I can pretty much assure you.

I just swan, I do.

But -- do you see your problem now? You just don't grasp what you read, even in as simple an instance as this.
