[QUOTE="HistoryMajor, post: 90776, member: 538"] Now, correct me if I'm wrong....the understanding of the difference between guns in Canada and the US is the number of deaths as a result. That is, gun violence is way higher in the United States than Canada, and gun possession is way higher in the US as well. Long guns we might come off relatively equitable, especially out West, but in terms of handguns, the comparison hardly even exists. I guess what I'm saying is instead of looking at homicide rates, it's worth looking at the rates of gun violence. In my view that probably provides a very different picture. *Shrug* But this one ain't in the Rubber Room. In terms of Switzerland, it probably comes down to a different culture than the US, and even Canada. P.S. JP, we don't need rose coloured glasses for things to be fine north of the 49th. :D [/QUOTE]
