You do realize that by law in switzerland, all guns have to be locked in a strongbox, right? So no ccw, and no keeping the gun ready near the bed, right?

That would be the kinda of system I would like to see in this country. A strong presance of rifles and shotguns, but focussed toward sport.

It might be worth noting that switzerland does have problems with these weapons.

I think the post above is very much inline with my thoughts. But for some reason I can't thank it, so consider this thanks TBS!

The only comment I'll make is as far as handguns and these assault type weapons go, here in the U.S there is this paranoia among people who feel they must be armed. To make matters worse all these arguments in favor of ownership and justification are mostly a lot of rubbish, distortions half facts and out and out lies and the gun lobby in the U.S wields incredible political power.

Think granny should carry a gun to shoot her attacker. The only result will be armed criminals who have no hesitation to use violence will instead of pulling a gun on granny and robbing her will instead pull the gun and shoot her dead and then rob her. Criminals ramp up their behavior. They will never stop being criminals and in an armed confrontation with a criminal if you do things legally until you are faced with a weapon you can't use deadly violence so once the guy approaches you and pulls a gun or knife in close quarters if you choose to draw and fire the outcome will probably be a bad one for you.

yes, i do think granny and grandpa should conceal/carry. it is true that a true hardcore criminal will not be stopped because he is going to steal, rob and do just about anything he wants. i had a relative in north carolina attacked in her own home by a home intruder and she had a weapon, in this case she could not get to it, so it did not help. on the other hand conceal/carry does combat some of the little street thugs and wannabe criminals if they think the "old man or woman" is armed to the teeth..
i wish i could find the link to the city in florida where it is mandatory to conceal/carry and the statistics of crime there, maybe someone else can find it and post it here
