Doesn't look like we will be able to point to Swiss gun ownership as an example for much longer:

    "Every misuse of a weapon is not the fault of the weapon - it's the person behind it; it's a problem of society," said Hermann Suter

    I couldn't say it any better myself...

    Not a bad article either...

    Wow, Switzerland sure looks like a great place. Maybe the grass is always greener on the other side, but I'd sure hate to see such a nice place go down hill because of some extremist liberal view on firearms.

    However EU is mainly a controlled by different conservative run countries.So probably the gunhaters in Europe is most likely all the consevatives...
    Makes me wonder what kind off bad stuff they're planning coz they want to disarm the whole of europe first...

    I think a nation shall not be afraid of their citizens and trie to enslave them in order to controll them [V]

    The leaders of a nation should be proud of his people and seek support of his people and put some trust and faith in us.[;)]

    The EU will destroy all of the freedoms still available to anyone in Europe. It is an unaccountable "uber state" that is extremely power hungry.

    "This year will go down in history for the first time a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future." -- Adolph Hitler

    Ah the Swiss, an industrious, money-loving, hard-working, money-loving, rigid, money-loving, well organized, money-loving people.

    Quote from article in first post:
    "Every year about 300 people die from army-issue guns in Switzerland. ...The majority of cases are suicides, ..."

    Reminds me of an old Archie Bunker show. Archie's flaming liberal daughter Gloria was lamenting the homicide of a friend by handgun. To which Archie replied: "Well sweetheeart, would you have been happier if he had used a hammer?"
    Go Archie! [}:)][}:)]

    ...Money isn't a bad thing, it's how it's acquired. We could open up the whole Nazi gold, Swiss bankers, Vatican can of worms, but let's not. Did I mention that the Swiss love money?
