Shit happens, what are your chances of getting killed by a mass shooter? I would quess you have more of a chance of spontaneously combusting in your safe place then getting killed by a mass shooter using an ar sporting rifle... snowflake

The chance of our police being shot and killed sure is higher than other places.

Funny....of the two of us....actual police officers agree with my side.....

Police Gun Control Survey: Are legally-armed citizens the best solution to gun violence?




Instead, it is interesting to note that many respondents consider armed citizens as a potential asset in reducing the carnage from a mass murder situation; proactive choices dominate over gun and magazine restrictions and bans.

More than 91 percent of respondents support the concealed carry of firearms by civilians who have not been convicted of a felony and/or not been deemed psychologically/medically incapable.

A full 86 percent feel that casualties would have been reduced or avoided in recent tragedies like Newtown and Aurora if a legally-armed citizen was present (casualties reduced: 80 percent; avoided altogether: 60 percent).

US cops killed 100 times more than German police in 2015

Because we have more criminals, and no real criminal control in this country…

Yes, U.S. locks people up at a higher rate than any other country

We don’t have strong enough penalties for violent criminals, a dead criminal cannot repeat their chosen behavior.

Czech prez calls for European ‘2nd Amendment’

Czech president Miloš Zeman has said Europeans should “have the courage to invest in our own guns” in order to guard against international terrorism, like millions of U.S. citizens have.

The elder statesman — a veteran of the Prague Spring uprising against the old Communist regime as well as the Velvet Revolution which finally brought it down — made his comments in an address to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, an intergovernmental forum which predates the quasi-federal European Union by several years.

“The level of international crime is growing because of Islamic terrorism,” he said, in response to a question from an Armenian politician.

You aren't aware?

The center of the world government, the BIS, and the international banking cartel and the international bureaucrats is in Switzerland. Why do you think they are always neutral in all wars? Because they fund all sides.

It wouldn't surprise me to find out both Soros and the Koch brothers have vacations homes, with guns there. All the elites probably do.

If you want gun freedom in Europe, Switzerland has traditionally been the hold out.

EU Gun Ban
Main article: Amending Directive (EU) 2017/853
A 2017 amendment to the EU Firearms Directive, known as the "EU Gun Ban",[11][12][13][14] introduces new restrictions on firearms possession and acquisition, especially on semi-automatic firearms, personal defense weapons, magazine capacity, blank firing guns and historical firearms. The restrictions must be introduced into the Swiss legal system by August 2018 due to its membership of the Schengen area.

The Directive also includes an exemption covering a specific Swiss issue - it allows possession to a target shooter of one firearm used during the mandatory military period after leaving the army, provided it was converted to semi-automatic only (art. 6(6) of the Amendment Directive).[15] This part of the Directive specifically was however challenged by the Czech Republic in front of the European Court of Justice due to its discriminatory nature. The Czech Republic seeks nullification of the "Swiss exemption" as well as of other parts of the Directive.[16]

Civil rights organizations plan to hold a referendum to reject the recent EU directive.[17] [18] According to Swiss People's Party vice-president Christoph Blocher, Switzerland should consider abandoning EU's borderless Schengen Area if the Swiss people reject the proposed measures in a referendum.[19]

THE SWISS WERE PREPARED TO FIGHT FACISM TO THE BITTER END | FRONTLINE | PBS



That is why the Nazis despised Switzerland. Joseph Goebbels called Switzerland "this stinking little state" where "sentiment has turned very much against us." Adolf Hitler decided that "all the rubbish of small nations still existing in Europe must be liquidated," even if it meant he would later "be attacked as the 'Butcher of the Swiss.'"



The 1940 Nazi invasion plan, Operation Tannenbaum, was not executed, and SS Oberst Hermann Bohme's 1943 memorandum warned that an invasion of Switzerland would be too costly because every man was armed and trained to shoot. This did not stop the Gestapo from preparing lists of Swiss to be liquidated once the Nazis overran the country.



The other European nations were easily toppled and had little means to wage a partisan war against the occupation. Once their standing armies were defeated, the governments capitulated and the populaces were defenseless.



Only in Switzerland was the entire populace armed and prepared to wage a relentless guerrilla war against an invader. When the war began in 1939, Switzerland mobilized 435,000 citizen soldiers out of a population of 4.2 million. Production figures for Swiss service rifles, which had firepower equal to those of the Germans, demonstrate an ample supply of small arms. Swiss militiamen were instructed to disregard any alleged "official" surrender as enemy propaganda and, if necessary, to fight individually. This meant that a nation of sharpshooters would be sniping at German soldiers at long ranges from every mountain.



While neutral, Switzerland was prepared to fight a Nazi invasion to the end. The celebrated Swiss Gen. Henri Guisan developed the strategy known as defense du reduit--an initial opposition followed by a retreat into the Alps, where a relentless war to the death would be waged. Most Swiss strongly opposed Nazism. Death sentences were issued for fifth-column activities, and proclamations against anti-Semitism were passed at various official levels. There was no Holocaust on Swiss soil, something that can not be said for France, the Netherlands, Poland or most of Europe.

Culture of violence: Gun crime goes up by 89% in a decade | Daily Mail Online

The latest Government figures show that the total number of firearm offences in England and Wales has increased from 5,209 in 1998/99 to 9,865 last year - a rise of 89 per cent.

The number of people injured or killed by guns, excluding air weapons, has increased from 864 in 1998/99 to a provisional figure of 1,760 in 2008/09, an increase of 104 per cent .




========



Crime rise is biggest in a decade, ONS figures show

Ministers will also be concerned that the country is becoming increasingly violent in nature, with gun crime rising 23% to 6,375 offences, largely driven by an increase in the use of handguns.

Gun crime in London increases by 42% - BBC News

Gun crime offences in London surged by 42% in the last year, according to official statistics.

Top trauma surgeon reveals shocking extent of London’s gun crime

A leading trauma surgeon has told how the number of patients treated for gunshot injuries at a major London hospital has doubled in the last five years.

----

He said the hospital’s major trauma centre had seen a bigger rise in gunshot injuries compared to knife wounds and that the average age of victims was getting younger.

-----

Last year, gun crime offences in London increased for a third year running and by 42 per cent, from 1,793 offences in 2015/16 to 2,544 offences in 2016/17. Police have seized 635 guns off the streets so far this year.

Dr Griffiths, who also teaches medical students, said: “Our numbers of victims of gun injury have doubled [since 2012]. Gunshot injuries represent about 2.5 per cent of our penetrating trauma.

-----

Dr Griffiths said the average age of gun crime victims needing treatment at the hospital had decreased from 25 to the mid to late teens since 2012.

He added that medics at the Barts Health hospital’s major trauma centre in Whitechapel had seen a bigger rise in patients with gun injuries rather than knife wounds and that most were caused by pistols or shotguns.

Met Police commander Jim Stokley, who was also invited to speak at the meeting, said that handguns and shotguns were the weapons of choice and that 46 per cent of London’s gun crime discharges were gang-related.

He said: “We believe that a lot of it is associated with the drugs trade, and by that I mean people dealing drugs at street level and disagreements between different gangs.”

Violent crime on the rise in every corner of the country, figures suggest

But analysis of the figures force by force, showed the full extent of the problem, with only one constabulary, Nottinghamshire, recording a reduction in violent offences.

The vast majority of police forces actually witnessed double digit rises in violent crime, with Northumbria posting a 95 per cent increase year on year.

Of the other forces, Durham Police recorded a 73 per cent rise; West Yorkshire was up 48 per cent; Avon and Somerset 45 per cent; Dorset 39 per cent and Warwickshire 37 per cent.

Elsewhere Humberside, South Yorkshire, Staffordshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Wiltshire and Dyfed Powys all saw violence rise by more than a quarter year on year.

Among countries ranked by total gross domestic product, rate of death by firearm assaults in the U.S. was more than 10 times higher than the next four highest countries combined, according to data from the Global Burden of Disease. Those four countries are China, Japan, Germany and the U.K.

And Europe murdered 12 million people in gas chambers.....averaging those murders out, we don't even come close to their insanity...at least criminals in the U.S. murder each other for personal gain, mass murdering innocent men, women and children....that is a European practice that our gun ownership keeps from happening....

Yes....mass murder is funny to you left wing types....

Yep.....hopefully this understanding of the Right to self defense will spread through Europe...before they sink into more violence and mass murder with a disarmed population...

Czech prez calls for European ‘2nd Amendment’

Czech president Miloš Zeman has said Europeans should “have the courage to invest in our own guns” in order to guard against international terrorism, like millions of U.S. citizens have.

The elder statesman — a veteran of the Prague Spring uprising against the old Communist regime as well as the Velvet Revolution which finally brought it down — made his comments in an address to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, an intergovernmental forum which predates the quasi-federal European Union by several years.

“The level of international crime is growing because of Islamic terrorism,” he said, in response to a question from an Armenian politician.

You dick. Lets have more guns so we can reduce our murder rate to American levels.10 times higher than ours.

You can post as many pretty pix as you want. Doesnt make the US as safe as Europe. By an absolute mile.

Right all those muzzies you got raping and killing a beheading and bombing, that's all good. Safe!

Chimp pic? not enough balls to call him what he really thinks.?
An uppity nigxxer?
Know we have bombed 57 countries / 1/3 of the worlds population?
And you whine about Muslims who have better. Ed and earn more than our white homegrown rubes?
No prob with our 20000 rapes/ year?
Jealous?
Not getting enough?

Libtard rule 17. "When loosing, post gibberish."

The chance of our police being shot and killed sure is higher than other places.

Funny....of the two of us....actual police officers agree with my side.....

Police Gun Control Survey: Are legally-armed citizens the best solution to gun violence?




Instead, it is interesting to note that many respondents consider armed citizens as a potential asset in reducing the carnage from a mass murder situation; proactive choices dominate over gun and magazine restrictions and bans.

More than 91 percent of respondents support the concealed carry of firearms by civilians who have not been convicted of a felony and/or not been deemed psychologically/medically incapable.

A full 86 percent feel that casualties would have been reduced or avoided in recent tragedies like Newtown and Aurora if a legally-armed citizen was present (casualties reduced: 80 percent; avoided altogether: 60 percent).

US cops killed 100 times more than German police in 2015

Because we have more criminals, and no real criminal control in this country…

Yes, U.S. locks people up at a higher rate than any other country

Europe murdered 12 million innocent men, women and children.....they had no guns to stop it......

End of the debate. Go and have a lie down ya sad fuck.

Europe mass murdered 12 million innocent men, women and children.....all of our deaths by criminals don't come close to that....

And you are flipping to that one again? You are aware how long ago that was right? And that most of Europe has few guns and that hasn't happened again? Stop being a child.

It happened.......and you think it will never, ever, happen again. Do you think the Europeans in the 1920s thought that it would ever happen the first time? And yet it happened......and then, after it happened, they let their governments disarm them again...now that was dumb. The Swiss...with 435,000 civilians armed with actual military rifles didn't have citizens sent to gas chambers...the rest of Europe did....

You aren't aware?

The center of the world government, the BIS, and the international banking cartel and the international bureaucrats is in Switzerland. Why do you think they are always neutral in all wars? Because they fund all sides.

It wouldn't surprise me to find out both Soros and the Koch brothers have vacations homes, with guns there. All the elites probably do.

If you want gun freedom in Europe, Switzerland has traditionally been the hold out.

EU Gun Ban
Main article: Amending Directive (EU) 2017/853
A 2017 amendment to the EU Firearms Directive, known as the "EU Gun Ban",[11][12][13][14] introduces new restrictions on firearms possession and acquisition, especially on semi-automatic firearms, personal defense weapons, magazine capacity, blank firing guns and historical firearms. The restrictions must be introduced into the Swiss legal system by August 2018 due to its membership of the Schengen area.

The Directive also includes an exemption covering a specific Swiss issue - it allows possession to a target shooter of one firearm used during the mandatory military period after leaving the army, provided it was converted to semi-automatic only (art. 6(6) of the Amendment Directive).[15] This part of the Directive specifically was however challenged by the Czech Republic in front of the European Court of Justice due to its discriminatory nature. The Czech Republic seeks nullification of the "Swiss exemption" as well as of other parts of the Directive.[16]

Civil rights organizations plan to hold a referendum to reject the recent EU directive.[17] [18] According to Swiss People's Party vice-president Christoph Blocher, Switzerland should consider abandoning EU's borderless Schengen Area if the Swiss people reject the proposed measures in a referendum.[19]

The Swiss are all armed, and were never invaded during World War II.!!

Yep.....armed people are safer than unarmed people when there is an aggressor who doesn't mind committing murder...


THE SWISS WERE PREPARED TO FIGHT FACISM TO THE BITTER END | FRONTLINE | PBS



That is why the Nazis despised Switzerland. Joseph Goebbels called Switzerland "this stinking little state" where "sentiment has turned very much against us." Adolf Hitler decided that "all the rubbish of small nations still existing in Europe must be liquidated," even if it meant he would later "be attacked as the 'Butcher of the Swiss.'"



The 1940 Nazi invasion plan, Operation Tannenbaum, was not executed, and SS Oberst Hermann Bohme's 1943 memorandum warned that an invasion of Switzerland would be too costly because every man was armed and trained to shoot. This did not stop the Gestapo from preparing lists of Swiss to be liquidated once the Nazis overran the country.



The other European nations were easily toppled and had little means to wage a partisan war against the occupation. Once their standing armies were defeated, the governments capitulated and the populaces were defenseless.



Only in Switzerland was the entire populace armed and prepared to wage a relentless guerrilla war against an invader. When the war began in 1939, Switzerland mobilized 435,000 citizen soldiers out of a population of 4.2 million. Production figures for Swiss service rifles, which had firepower equal to those of the Germans, demonstrate an ample supply of small arms. Swiss militiamen were instructed to disregard any alleged "official" surrender as enemy propaganda and, if necessary, to fight individually. This meant that a nation of sharpshooters would be sniping at German soldiers at long ranges from every mountain.



While neutral, Switzerland was prepared to fight a Nazi invasion to the end. The celebrated Swiss Gen. Henri Guisan developed the strategy known as defense du reduit--an initial opposition followed by a retreat into the Alps, where a relentless war to the death would be waged. Most Swiss strongly opposed Nazism. Death sentences were issued for fifth-column activities, and proclamations against anti-Semitism were passed at various official levels. There was no Holocaust on Swiss soil, something that can not be said for France, the Netherlands, Poland or most of Europe.

Was Switzerland neutral or a Nazi ally in World War Two?

Yes.....all of the other countries in Europe were invaded and conquered by the socialists in Germany.....and yet they left Switzerland alone.......rather than invading and simply taking over their banks.......as they did in every other country.....

What was different between the Swiss and the rest of Europe...the rest of Europe disarmed their citizens, leaving their nations defenseless after the nazis defeated their weak armies.......had the rest of Europe had armed populations like the Swiss....there would have been no way the Germans could have held those countries......with every city a center of guerilla warfare with armed people shooting at them.......
