The Swiss, for comparison, also have a high level of gun ownership, yet there are nowhere near comparable statistics when it comes to gun crime, even factoring in Switzerland’s much smaller population. There are 120.5 firearms for every 100 residents in America, meaning that there are easily more guns than people. We also know that gun ownership goes up by the millions after a mass shooting. That’s why this is the cause, source, origin, and condition for the origination of those many bad, unskillful things, namely safeguarding. This mindset will always be a piece of America, but it need not be destructive if it can occupy a middle path away from the maximalist interpretation of gun ownership.
