How do we explain this?
Switzerland has a near ZERO MURDER RATE......
   in a nation of 8.3 million people.
There are about 2 million privately owned guns plus hunting weapons that do not require a permit
The National Rifle Association rightly points out that more rules on gun ownership aren't going to reduce crime.
In 2016, Switzerland had one of the lowest 
murder rates in the world.
Are we able to explain WHY their military (all of their citizens) are not committing murderous acts in their home country/against fellow citizens or committing suicide as in the US?
The Swiss have some specific rules and regulations for gun use.

Sorry to inform you but Swiss people have more rapes from the immigration that have over come their country. They have daily fires on the street from these people. You just don't see it on the news. Take the guns away and the CRIMINALS run the people down.. Look at Mexico

Scandinavian countries are very very very homogenistic (very little racial "diversity" there) and a comparatively level stratified class structure.

Switzerland isn't in Scandinavia, but point taken.

@WilyRickWiles thank you - correction noted

Thank you everyone this is my first post on IDW so still orienting to the format, etc. Thought I would test the waters, so to speak. Every time I've posted this elsewhere it turns into a racial issue & definately not into that! Pisses me off.

good post - although the explanation for it is indeed related to racial diversity and the lack thereof in Scandinavian countries.

Hello. I think there is always a build-up or a combination of factors as to why one country is doing better than another country, and that includes history, culture, homogeneity, social structure etc, etc. In the case of Switzerland, it could be to do with the fact that they make decisions by referendum which is had up to four times a year, they have rather strict regulations on immigrants' behaviour, they have a strong emphasis on community as a core. etc., etc. I think it is often impossible to make a fair comparison between two countries as to why one country is doing better than another unless they share very similar aspects.

Every person should be required to go through boot camp and spend two years in the military.
Gets you in shape, establishes good habits, shows you the larger world outside, gives you a taste of leadership at a young age, fun with people your own age, gives you a sense of belonging, comradery, makes you appreciate what you have

I think the Swiss model is probably closer to what the founders intended than the gun anarchy we have today.

The founders were pretty clear on what they wanted, regarding arms. They would be appalled at the fact that we have allowed the government to pass as many gun laws we already have on the books.

They were quite clear that our right to bear arms, like others, is a God given right, that the government had no authority to infringe upon. They had the incredible experience with such restrictions and how they impacted freedoms.

Think of it this way, without the 2A, the whole constitution, especially the bill of rights, becomes void of all power, because we the people just surrendered them to the government.

@Shill Seems simplistic. I've offered the following nuanced takes on gun laws before:

[theatlantic.com]
[theconversation.com]

@WilyRickWiles They were very simple people, however, they knew better than anyone about the dangers of the government becoming more dangerous than the governed. I love some of their quotes, some from the federalist papers. They were quite clear, arms is the only way to insure freedom. Without them, you are at the mercy of those that do. I don't know about anyone else, but as God pointed out, I, and I alone am responsible for me and mine.

I liked your articles, very well written. I do agree with the idea of having every 18 yo serve in the military. It would bring a much needed perspective to some of these young folks who just don't seem to understand the privileges they really have here in the US.
