  • In Switzerland’s case, most of these “military guns” are not kept with ammo, so it’s not like Timmy can go on a shooting spree with a glorified pipe section. There’s also an actual license system for buying and owning weapons and ammo.

    I always wonder why especially liberal/left-leaning people (not implying/saying you are one) are so opposed to private gun ownership

    Well, there’s a pretty good example of why virtually unrestricted gun ownership is a bad idea in the USA. Are poverty, healthcare the bigger issues? Of course. That doesn’t mean you should compound them by making it easy for people to act with deadly force at the tip of their finger on impulse. Have a proper license system, make gun safes mandatory, don’t give licenses without good reasons (self defense isn’t one in 99.99% of cases), control ammunition sale.
