like switzerland, but they are looking at is private ownership of guns. switzerland at this.would require all able-bodied males between the ages of 18 and 36 to have a military issued machine gun and in many cases, handgun in their own. is it the ownership of guns the matter or the possession of guns that matter question mark i would think that if you are worried about people behaving responsibly or irresponsibly, with guns the position of guns should matter rather than the ownership. if you were to fix this for switzerland and for israel, which is a only a seven guns per 100 people, is israel the vast majority of guns are owned by the government. you may be in possession of a gun for 40 years, but the government technically owns it. will howdy count that. they ignored this. if you were to fix that, both switzerland and israel, in terms of position rates, are higher than what we have here in the united states. you get similar types of claims here and so for example where the claims you'll see is that the united states makes up over 4 percent of the world
