While I am not exactly sure what "type of society" that you mean ..... I believe that their is a direct correlation and symbiotic relationship between pervasive, basically unregulated ownership and the "gun culture" we have developed.
The countries cited in the previous thread are testimony to this. They have always had far, far more stringent gun regulations, their societies are not burdened with a similar culture and enjoy much much less gun violence. Even on a per capita basis (which is the only valid way to make these types of comparisons).
