Technically we have similar policies. Commit a felony and you can’t own a gun. Problem is, there are plenty of misdemeanors that you can commit which should disqualify a person from owning a firearm.

In case you are wondering what the 4 rules are: -Always treat a gun as if it's loaded. -Never point your gun at something you don't wanna shoot. -Don't hold your finger on the trigger as long as you are not aiming for your specific target. -Always be aware of your target! That's what they tell everyone in the military.

Aye, as a kid in Switzerland they literally told me about jaywalking, that if I grow up to be a jaywalker, another kid could see and imitate my behaviour, and I'd be responsible for the downfall of society in steps. Whenever I was about to do something bad or criminal as a youngster, this one lesson held me off. Because I understood what the meaning of it was. If not for me, even If I don't care about myself and do silly things, I should at least do it for the sake of humanity and society as I am a small piece of that, what contributes through every action to the world we live.

Interesting I am Norwegian but we are kind of different in the socializing. I think you Swiss are more into following rules than us. We are a bit more anarchist. But Norway is still a very peaceful place, but that is because there is a lot of emphasis from young age in Norway to learn how to compromise, do conflict resolution. But this goes all the way back to Viking times. Viking era Norway was very violent and there was no central power to keep order. No police or anything like that. To keep the peace people had to learn how to do conflict resolution and find compromises. This I find is the biggest difference for me when in the US. In the US I feel like the attitude is always "my way or the high way!" Stand your ground and take no shit from anybody seems to be the ethos. When you got people armed to the teeth that is kind of a receipt for disaster.

In the city of Zurich there is an old tradition where boys and girls of the ages of 13 to 17 compete in a shooting competition using the Swiss Army assault rifle (in single-shot mode). While I never competed, I know that gun safety as Thor here tries to explain is taught before the shooting starts, so these young people know how to handle a gun at this young age. It's not fear we want, it's respect. These things can easily kill, and that's what we're taught. The rules of handling a gun are: 1. Always treat a weapon as if it were loaded and the safety off. 2. Never point the weapon at anything you don't want to kill. 3. The finger stays away from the trigger until the weapon is pointing at the intended target. 4. Be sure what you're about to shoot: Be sure that nothing is behind your target, hidden by it but still in the line of fire. Follow those 4 simple rules, which can also be boiled down to the term "common sense", and no accidents can possibly happen.

As an American who has lived in Switzerland for the past 15 years I can tell you the difference is violence in American culture. It is just absent here. I have seen men arguing loudly on a few occasions to the degree I expected a fight to ensue, but no, being Swiss one of them eventually gets fed up with the yelling and throws their arms into the air with frustration and walks away. America is just violent in nature and quite stupid in general, which is a volatile mix.

Switzerland is similar to the U.S. in a way that it is a magnet for immigrants because it promises better chances and better life quality. However I'd say the biggest difference is the education system. I've worked as a teacher in both countries and I just can't get over how many people seem to fall though the cracks and end up really uneducated and frankly I'd even call it narrow-minded.

Registering to vote really isn't hard for most people (there are some definite exceptions though, the system could be better especially in some states). Contrary to popular belief on the anti-gun side, purchasing a gun actually isn't that easy. It requires completion of a thorough ATF form and background check. If your background check does not come back clean or you lie on the form, your purchase is denied. Only exception is used gun sales in some states (my state required going through a dealer though, even for used guns).

Don’t point it at somebody, keep it down the range, and don’t aim it unless you intend to kill with it. We in America however have too much gang violence and many mental health issues.

Well the 4 rules in Switzerland are more or less already mentioned by some other users but it's not only knowing them that is important, but it is to understand them. In the Swiss military we learned following rules: 1. Treat all firearms ALWAYS as if they are loaded Meaning: each time you pick up a firearm you must do a personal security check. You check if there is a bullet in the chamber and in the magazine. You do that as well by pointing it in a safe direction. 2. Only point your firearms in the direction of a target you really want to hit Meaning: you never ever point your firearm at someone or something you actually not attempt to really hit 3. As long the aiming sighting device is not pointed at a target your trigger finger must ALWAYS be kept straight and outside the trigger guard or on the frame Meaning: you never walk around with your trigger finger on the trigger itself unless you are ready to shoot 4. Be sure of your target Meaning: think first before shooting, check your targets you are responsible for every round Not the firearm is dangerous but always the User handling it!

Aidan Patman-Clark I almost 100% sure that after columbine, every school shooting there after was either done for some sort of publicity or because 1 in 5 Americans suffer from some kind of mental health issue and the “cure” is to take a pill that usually has more negative side effects mentally. This in result can lead to ideas such as school shootings. Not to mention that prior to the Parkland shooting, calls were made to law enforcement officials but they either turned a blind eye or just simply said it was nothing to worry about

People forget that the main reason why Switzerland has so many guns is because every man has to do compulsory military service and then takes his rifle home so that he has one if Switzerland is invaded and he joins the militia. But he can’t just get ammunition, and has to pass a gun safety / shooting test every few years to keep it.

And the New Zealand shooter? Did he have to get a license to purchase each of his TWO assault rifles -- the ones he used to shoot up that mosque in Christchurch? These procedures are not the reason why there are fewer mass shootings or lower gun crime overall in Switzerland. The Islamist terror attacks in France, carried out several years back, involved assault rifles brought to France from the Balkan countries. The AVAILABILITY of firearms (legally or not) has NOTHING to do with the murder rate in a country. If the gun controllers' theories were correct, then Switzerland's homicide rate should be much closer to America's or Mexico's or South Africa's ...rather than Japan's.

This. Exactely right. There are virtually NO gun shops in this country, nowhere to buy guns & amunitions etc. Plus most people would'nt even know how to buy any of them and where to buy them. There are some guns collectors & fans like in every other country, they can use their collection guns in shooting range probably. Apart from that small number of people and variety of guns (collectors) all the guns the Swiss people have at home is their military provided assault-riffle. This goes back to the Minute-Men type of organistion of the Swiss Army to help speed up any mobilisation in case of war. There is regularly (once every 10 years maybe) some sort of case of a guys goes nuts and use is military assault-riffle to shoot at someone, but is is rare and far between. There is no gun culture as such in Switzerland. No one carrying guns in public, no one wants to, and is futhermore forbidden.

The difference is in Switzerland most men serve in the military where thy have an initial training service or some months and serve in the following years every year some weeks and get a gun they keep home for that. At the end of the service they could keep their weapon. So most guns are possessed and inherited by ordinary people with accurate training and no specific craziness about guns. In the USA most guns are possessed by gun nuts, wo are completely crazy about shooting and guns.

I'm a self proclaimed gun loving liberal, and I've known about the situation in Switzerland for a while. I'm glad someone with some influence explained that it is a fundamental cultural issue as well as a political one. America, we can change our culture, we've done it before, and there shouldn't be anything stopping us from doing it again. It is possible to keep our guns and have a safe country, but not if we continue on the path we are going down.

​@Xrey I wrote three fairly small and easy to understand sentences for context of the overall point. So ,You're either being intentionally obtuse or willfully ignorant of the point that those three sentences made. But I'll shall go ahead and waste my time and effort to refute your ignorant statement anyway. Hell, I'll even use your cherry picked context of automatic weaponry specifically. The first fully automatic weapon was conceived in the 1880s. The fully automatic machine gun or "assault weapon" as both you and Hitler liked to call them, arrived on the scene in the mid to late 1930s. Coincidentally he wanted a disarmed population too. How many mass shootings occurred between 1935 and 1976? Answer =less than one a year, with the vast majority of those years being zero. How many mass shooting have occurred from 1976 until now? Answer= All the ones you have ever heard of or could possibly reference without going to wiki or google. How many mass shootings have involved any fully automatic weapon of any type since 1776 in America? Answer=less than .0001% The 2016 number of deaths for all rifles in America is 374. That number includes any rifle, ARmalite15 semi automatic style rifles are only a fraction of that number. But no fully automatic weaponry to be found in the FBI statistics list sorry. In America ,more people fell out of their own beds and died from the fall , than all mass shooting murders involving automatic weapons of any kind combined. Nearly 1.25 million people die in road crashes each year, on average 3,287 deaths a day. An additional 20-50 million are injured or disabled.Texting and driving alone leads to 3100+ deaths per year. Pretty costly "privileges" in terms of human life. One could easily argue it's in the public's best interest health wise to do away with them all. You say we need to change, I say you need to educate yourself. Then start outlawing bed frames ,cellphones and driving cars before you even think about coming for a guaranteed constitutional right. Do everyone a favor though and pull over before you read or reply.

It also helps that Switzerland has a very good social safety net. If you are well-paid, have good health-care and can trust society/the government to help you if you are in need, then you don't have a reason to go storming a mall and slaughter random people. Just saying. Shootings have many reasons, gun-ownership is rarely one, but if you combine the will the do harm with easy access to fire arms you have a receipe for mass murder.

2:26 “You can buy a gun almost immediately without any background check” is complete nonsense, to purchase a firearm you must be of legal age (18 for long guns, 21 for pistols) not be barred from owning a firearm (if you are a convicted felon or have committed acts of domestic violence or abuse you cannot own a firearm), must submit to an FBI backround check, and fill out a bunch of paperwork, which is then securely stored at the establishment. There is no “gun show loophole” or “trust loophole”, you cannot own automatic weapons, short barreled shotguns, short barreled rifles, or suppressors (all regulated under the NFA Act of 1934) without paying a $200 tax stamp, filing an ATF Form 1 and 4, providing passport photos and FBI ID fingerprint cards, then waiting for ATF approval of your purchase. American gun culture is based on the ability to prevent others from using force to make you do something against your will, be it criminals or the government, not defense of your nation (which is also quite honorable)

He refers to private transfer of firearms. You indeed are not required to fill out any form of paperwork when you're transfering a firearm that is not regulated under the NFA to a family member, or in fact anyone for that matter. If the private transfer background check and paperwork was regulated it would be kept in the database, but since its not, the tracing of the gun is unkept once it leaves the original owner. If the private transfer occurs out of state, that's when the gun has to be sent to a FFL holder, who can conduct a NICS. What you wrote down only occurs when the object of the deal is a NFA regulated gun.
