You can't get a gun because you feel you might need protection some day, you need to have reason why you might be in danger constantly. Obviously, cops and soldiers are authorized to have guns. I don't think there's any dictatorship here.
If by Europe you mean the European Union, then I am perfectly aware of the gun laws considering I am a Briton myself. Our gun laws absolutely suck and unfortunately they don't show any sign of changing any time soon.

Technically speaking Belarus is seen as Europe's last dictatorship, but surprisingly they seem to have fairly lax gun laws and quite a strong gun culture. If you check a couple of posts above, you'll see that I wasn't being entirely serious regarding the image of the dictators though.
