Everyone knows that Guns aren't the problem, Americans are.
Switzerland proves this over and over and over. Stop focusing on guns and focus on yourselves. You shits.
- this country is vast and stupid, vast... and... stupid... ...id ...id ...idGreedo
- Switzerland is a baby country with silent racism that keeps non-similiarly minded individuals out, thus reducing violence.robotron3k
- Ban Americansyuekit
- Whilst there are a high number of guns in Switzerland, they have no bullets at home, and all the same they're in the top 30 countries for gun deaths per capitadetritus
- I'm calling for a complete shut down on Americans entering any other country until we know what's going on folks.monoboy
- ...from a list which includes 15 South American countries, so I'm ..er.. not sure how great an example they are here.detritus
- robo making shit up again - do you realise you talk shit, or are you oblivious? Switzerland is in top 10 countries immigration per capita.detritus
- Switzerland is so small compared to the US http://www.travelers…OP31
- robo isn't entirely wrong ... the history of violence and racism in the USA is unique, and comparing directly to Switzerland isn't fair to either nationmonospaced
- size is irrelevant...set
- @ OP31set
- I'm with set on this one.kona
- Detritus... 3.60 vs 0.21 per 100,000 is incomparable, regardless of whether they're in the top 30 or notset
- ... and it's AS easy for people in Switzerland to have bullets, if they choose, but I guess they don't... which is kind of the point.set
- So I don't mean to be rude but I don't really understand any of your argumentset
- I bet that even you are aware that the average Swiss person is most likely a better, calmer, healthier, more well rounded individual than the average American.set
- 'even you' is a shitty way to word it, I didn't mean it like that.set
- I'm not sure I've any idea what 'an average anyone' is like, but then I've never been very fond of black and white polarised absolutes.detritus
- the high number in Switzerland is due to the right to keep your army gun at home. So basically it's trained soldiers in possession of guns at home.uan
- and everyone has to go to military training (or civil service as an alternative).
last time Switzerland voted for a law to hand the weapons back to the army...uan - ...the result was: population in cities voted to get rid of the weapons, population of countrysides wanted to keep the weapons.uan
- so now you can decide for yourself what's best for you, keeping your weapon at the base or at home.uan
- Ah, so cosmopolitanised urbanites vs. redneck yokels? Huh. And there's me thinking that was solely an American division...detritus
- You're being a stubborn muppet if you don't think you can characterise a country by the average citizenset
- But it's good way to still disagree with me even though it's a load of rubbish . :)set
- I am one to generalise, but I'd be a stupid muppet, to borrow from your vernacular, if I put much stock in any national stereotype, esp. for a country of 300M.detritus
- I mean, it only takes one glance at the dismembering internal national dialogue that happens in the States after every shooting to show such it up.detritus
- Personally, I see your virtuous Swiss, or some Suffolk or Bavarian farmer to be on about the same level as some gun toting midewestern American hick.detritus
- Just my to Franken, since I was one of these armygun possessing swiss: Most of our gundeaths are suicides.Longcopylover
- Everything else uan already said.Longcopylover
