Take a globe. Put your thumb over Europe and your hand over Canada. Everything not covered up has threatened to use some kind of weapon on America in the last half century. (Ok maybe not Australia either, but that messes up the visual).
The world is full of guys trying to keep what they have. Some of them think that means they have to show how tough they are. They have to be the guy in the bar who talks about how he'd beat the crap out of [insert whatever athlete or boxer or whatever] if they walked through that door.
