why do countries like Norway and sweden - which rank in the top ten worldwide for gun ownership- have much much less gun homicides than USA?
not my words but .... Firstly all able bodied men in Switzerland do military service and refresher courses. Most of the guns in peoples homes are due to this and ammunition cannot be kept with the gun at home. Secondly machine guns, automatic weapons and silencers are banned. Thirdly to own a weapon they must go through psychiatric as well as criminal weapons checks. Fourthly it is very rare to be able to get a permit to carry a weapon in public. Just to keep a weapon requires a permit which has to be refreshed annually. If the US want to continue as is that is fine but to use Switzerland as a justification is utterly stupid.
More egalitarian societies, with stronger gun control, lower youth unemployment, and generous social safety nets. Young men at the bottom in those places are not as idle, as threatened, nor do they have as easy access to high leverage weapons, as our young men.
Eventually? What, in 50 years? No liberal would wait that long. Of course, 3d printed guns would take over way before then, so you're living a pipe dream (what's new?).
i don't see any trade you ever posted, correct me if i'm wrong but this site is about the trade???pussy
ISLA VISTA, CA—In the days following a violent rampage in southern California in which a lone attacker killed seven individuals, including himself, and seriously injured over a dozen others, citizens living in the only country where this kind of mass killing routinely occurs reportedly concluded Tuesday that there was no way to prevent the massacre from taking place. “This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes these things just happen and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop them,” said North Carolina resident Samuel Wipper, echoing sentiments expressed by tens of millions of individuals who reside in a nation where over half of the world’s deadliest mass shootings have occurred in the past 50 years and whose citizens are 20 times more likely to die of gun violence than those of other developed nations. “It’s a shame, but what can we do? There really wasn’t anything that was going to keep this guy from snapping and killing a lot of people if that’s what he really wanted.” At press time, residents of the only economically advanced nation in the world where roughly two mass shootings have occurred every month for the past five years were referring to themselves and their situation as “helpless.”
ROSEBURG, OR—In the hours following a violent rampage in southwestern Oregon in which a lone attacker killed nine individuals and seriously injured seven others, citizens living in the only country where this kind of mass killing routinely occurs reportedly concluded Thursday that there was no way to prevent the massacre from taking place. “This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes these things just happen and there’s nothing anyone can do to stop them,” said Ohio resident Lindsay Bennett, echoing sentiments expressed by tens of millions of individuals who reside in a nation where over half of the world’s deadliest mass shootings have occurred in the past 50 years and whose citizens are 20 times more likely to die of gun violence than those of other developed nations. “It’s a shame, but what can we do? There really wasn’t anything that was going to keep this guy from snapping and killing a lot of people if that’s what he really wanted.” At press time, residents of the only economically advanced nation in the world where roughly two mass shootings have occurred every month for the past six years were referring to themselves and their situation as “helpless.”
