Gun ownership is declining in Switzerland it stands at about 25% now as apposed to the ~45% of Americans, extrapolate the population figures and you see how many guns there are in each country. The majority of guns in Switzerland are because most men are conscripted into the army, anyone else who wishes to buy a gun had to undergo psychological evaluation something which doesn't happen in the US, which is why there's so many ****ing nut jobs shooting people

Islamic State Claims Worst Shooting In US History
http://news.sky.com/story/1710850/is...-in-us-history [The Islamist terror group ISIS claims one of its "fighters" is responsible for the deadliest mass shooting in modern US history.] Last edited by arista; 12-06-2016 at 08:14 PM. |

People in Switzerland undergo mandatory Military Training and they keep the equipment they use during training at home which can be converted to private use after their training is concluded. The difference between Switzerland and US is that almost all gun owners in Switzerland are trained extensively and aren't as likely to abuse them. You should honestly try to research these things before you attempt to use them as points in a discussion. |

What muslim hate speech? Terrorists are terrorists and there are plenty of white domestic ones. But the danger at the minute is Isis and radical Islam. There is nothing anti muslim about saying that Muslims coming to America should be vetted.

You were discussing banning Muslims from entering the country and throwing American Muslims out. Dress it up however you want, it's clear what it is.

The Fbi etc will get to the bottom of the who's and whys and for whoms ......the mai. Focus for today should be on the people who have lost their lives in this atrocity. Gun laws, IS, extremists etc are secondary at the moment to the families who's lives have just been torn apart needlessly

There's no real proof to suggest he was at this stage, unsubstantiated claims don't tend to hold up when you consider how different this act of terrorism was in comparison to an Isis terror attack.
The attack resembles a (sadly) typical American mass shooting, he wasn't highly organised and in cahoots with anyone like most terrorists who commit IS attacks are. |

This may come as a shock to people but even if there are gun control laws criminals will still be able to get guns. The places in the US with the greatest gun violence are the places with the strictest gun laws. All they do is prevent law abiding citizens from owning them.
