Any change in culture that is effective takes time  and is done subtly.  Just
as many other nations have been whittling away at their citizen's rights to
own firearms, they've been doing it in such a way that people who do legally
own and use firearms are viewed as being deviants.

The US has a gun culture, and instead of trying to hide it, safety and
responsibility through safety courses and shooting sports are ways to reverse
the stigma that guns only have one evil reason to exist.
