Pretty sure you still need to go through a background check for those
>How likely is it that you get shot in america?
You're more likely to slip in your bathtub and die from that
>Do you have to pay tips at hospital?
Nice meme
>Is it true that americans mock and yell at people who use sidewalks?
If you walk on the road get ready to take a Hummer to the face

>renting guns
Typically you have to be shooting at a range, and turn them in afterwards. Also, you have to listen to safety instructions. My cousin works at a gun range, and turned away Japanese tourists because they couldn't understand English, and therefore couldn't understand safety instructions.
>For self defense
In almost all states, you need a carry permit, which requires residency, a background check, fingerprinting, classes, and a waiting period. The current interpretation of the 2nd amendment states that you have the right to bear arms on your own personal property. Anything else is a privilege.
>likelihood of being shot
Unlikely outside of Chicago, LA, New Orleans, and Florida.
>tipping at hospital
We only really tip at restaurants and in cabs.
>mocking people on the sidewalk
I have never heard of this at all

Texas is weird. People always say "keep Austin weird," but I think they're actually the normal ones.

I'd rather be a Communist than a Texan.

All 4 of those are memes. Also, jaywalking is illegal on the books in most states but it's only enforced, if ever, if you're causing a nuisance to traffic.

So as a tourist I could go to a shooting range and try the guns? Sounds fun. I've never shoot a gun in my life. Haven't even held one

It's easier if you train yourself in gun safety on a dummy gun first: http://www.nssf.org/safety/basics/

>>70708548
>mock and yell at people who use sidewalks?
Never even heard of this before

Got coins thrown at while walking down the street in Phoenix, las one is definitely true

You'll want to understand the basics before you go (always wear earmuffs to prevent hearing loss from gunshots if it's indoor, brace the butt of the rifle firmly with your shoulder, etc.)

Actually they probably will teach tourists the basics there, just make sure they can do that and won't just hand you a gun and say "Enjoy" because then you might have some problems

It's mostly something retarded teenagers driving their first car do
