In Switzerland, all males over the age of 18 are part of the militia (no army) and have a fully automatic weapons in the house. Yes, fully automatic military style weapon(s) with thousands of rounds of ammunition. Switzerland does not have the "gun issues" that we have... if you believe we have "gun issues".

The question you should be asking is, "What country in Europe has more people drugged up on anti-depressants and allows these people to have guns?". Almost all of these recent shootings were done by people on Prozac and had access to firearms.

For full disclosure I have fully automatic machine guns, pistols, shotguns, and rifles. I would not live in a country or state (long term) that banned gun ownership. Guns are not the problem... people are.
