I will immediately endorse the U.S. adopting Switzerland’s gun laws if it comes to a voteAmerica should do as the Swiss government does and require everyone to have a Millitary type rifle. We are at war with terrorists who are all armed with fully automatic AK-47 assault rifles. Its time we wake up to that fact.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Firearms legislation in Switzerland allows the free purchase of semi-automatic, but not fully automatic firearms by Swiss citizens and foreigners with permanent residence.[note 1][1] Permits for concealed carrying in public are issued sparingly.[note 2][2] The acquisition of fully automatic weapons, suppressors and target lasers likewise requires special permits issued by the cantonal firearms office.[3] Use of hollow-point and soft-point ammunition is limited to hunting.[4]...
Swiss gun culture has emerged from a long tradition of shooting (tirs), which served as a formative element of national identity in the post-Napoleonic Restoration of the Confederacy,[5] and the long-standing practice of a militia organization of the Swiss Armyin which soldiers' service rifles are stored privately at their homes. In addition to this, many cantons (notably the alpine cantons of Grisonsand Valais) have strong traditions of hunting, accounting for a large but unknown number of privately held hunting rifles.
Interestingly, although the Swiss are as relaxed about gun ownership as we are, they have a lot less gun homicides.

What’s the racial makeup of Switzerland. Just curious.

The defense and protection of the state and of the United States is an obligation of all persons within the state. The legislature shall provide for the discharge of this obligation and for the maintenance and regulation of an organized militia.
That little piece of information saying that the Swiss issue a weapon to everybody is actually a Facebook posting, and it's not exactly true. Neither are all the other little "facts" that conservatives over here like to tout about Switzerland having a lower crime rate than other countries. It simply isn't true.
Here is a link that talks about all those little bits of information and how untrue they are. But, in the interest of dispelling the myth that Switzerland issues a gun to every citizen? Not exactly true, as they require nearly all males to join the military, get trained, show up for refresher training every so often, and after their service, if they can show just cause, they can keep the weapon after having it retrofitted.
Quick question gun people, would YOU be willing to be REQUIRED to serve in the military as a condition of your being allowed to keep your guns? Me? I'd have no problem with it, I've already done 20 years.
Facebook posting says the gun-rich Swiss have the lowest firearm crime rate in the civilized world
One other point is particularly important here. The description of gun distribution in Switzerland omits important information.
The Swiss government doesn't hand out a gun to every household. It requires nearly every able-bodied young male adult to serve in the citizen militia, where they are issued a military rifle. The guns are supposed to be for military use only, not for personal defense.
Those men are supposed to show up for 18 weeks of training, followed by seven re-training sessions (each lasting three weeks) over the next 10 years.
If you want to keep your weapon after your years of service, it is refitted to scale back its firepower and you need to provide a reason for keeping it.

They keep automatic weapons in their homes while in service. They “scale them back” to semi automatic afterwards. All men can keep their weapon.
