i think every country is in a unique situation, there's lots of firepower in swiss homes but they're kept by trained reservists.
in the US for example, the cat's out of the bag - the ridiculous number of firearms, the streamlined supply of guns and ammo, the sheer crazy number of gun stores down there guarantee easy access to firearms for criminals. so with every two-bit hood armed to the teeth, if you're in a danger area you're armed. no two ways aboot it.
how many 7-11's get knocked off with a .303 rifle? canada's gun control for hunting weapons only makes sense when you realize that there's three days of food on grocery shelves, otherwise it's complete and total ludicrous hogwash.
