Like I said, as far as I know. Which often isn't far. I'm happy to be set straight, but I don't make it a point of checking to see how many countries allow guns to be carried legally by civilians. If Switzerland allows that, well, I guess that's just how the Swiss roll, innit?

The human suffering that was endured by the people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was meticulously documented. But still, I think it’s true that crime kills way more people than war.

Final analysis: People just love things that can destroy people.

If people were cockroaches we’d be jacking off to giant spray cans of raid.

Nice to know they only have guns because they’re fascist.

Or is conscription not fascist?

automatic guns are also banned here. Unless you have a specific permit which very few people have.

But the real difference is Switzerland probably doesn't have the kind of gang violence we do. There are plenty of rural gun toting states where the murder rate also isn't an issue.

You’re an outlier that actually supports full nuclear disarmament. So everyone but you, I guess. I’d like to see them off the planet but I’m hard af for guns. If it happens I guess I’ll have to start jacking off to knives.

They won’t keep firing if you hold the trigger down but they’ll fire as fast as you can pull it and with a real light trigger that’s really really really ****ing fast

Just to be clear. The kids on the playground don’t stand a chance.

automatic literally means you can just hold the trigger down

but as far as mass shootings go.... just about any semi auto gun will do. you don't need an AR-15... a standard issue 9 mm glock pistol with a few spare clips is more than sufficient to murder a couple dozen unarmed civilians.

Good reason to carry, to prevent "rape and pillage." Plus one for the Second Amendment.
