Americans can NOT capable of self-governing in relation to guns.
Why don't you just come out and say what you actually mean, the whole sentence. You know you want to. What you MEAN, is that:
"Americans can NOT capable of self-governing in relation to guns, because they haven't drawn the same conclusions about it that I have."
In short, its another form of "since Americans haven't chosen to ban guns, that shows that they can't self govern in relation to guns".
You are an anti-gun extremist, and about as far away from mainstream America as you can get,.
