Uncounted generations of serfdom in Europe has formed a mindset that a mere century or two of freedom has yet to overcome.

The founding of America was an entirely unique event in the annuals of history.

It is not only unfair to compare the two cultures, it is a comparison of apples and oranges.

ETA: so it is delusional to think that had the people of Europe been armed (as are many Americans), that the result would have been different. The two
mindsets are too far apart.

I acknowledged the above with

"I know there were centuries of conditioning..."

minus the second class citizen conditioning + arms = a different outcome
