"Culture". To think it is a part of a culture is pretty crazy, lol. Makes sense though.
An Indonesian friend and I were playing the original 'Last of Us' Game. I was remarking how unrealistic it was that, even after twenty years of scavenging, you could go into any random house and open a drawer and find ammunition. He said, "Well, the game is set in America."
America has no cultural attachment to archery. But it does have a cultural attachment to firearms from the Revolution to the present. In terms of weaponry that could be used to project an object (in this case aircraft) from a person.

Yeah, the biggest example was the Wild West that the stories even reach to Europeans too. That while the Europeans were first to utilize them in numbers, the Americans made it as part of their way of life. Has people forgot that one of the constitions was the citizen's right to "carry (fire)arms"?
You know, for the last frame I expected the bowstring to keep caught, the arrow to fall off, and Iowa to turn around and go "... how do you shoot this thing again?"

America was basically the frontier of civilization when it was founded. The land belonged to whoever could hold it, treaties only held as much power as the people gave them. Plus, the whole premise of America was founded on a person's individual liberty, which, like treaties and land, only belonged to the person who could enforce them. It's no surprise that Americans grew up close to their guns.
