You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information.
Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!
The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind them of this history lesson.
With guns, we are 'citizens'. Without them, we are 'subjects'.
During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED!
If you value your freedom, please spread this antigun-control message to all of your friends.

SWITZERLAND HAS THE LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!
IT'S A NO BRAINER!
DON'T LET OUR GOVERNMENT WASTE MILLIONS OF OUR TAX DOLLARS IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS AN EASY TARGET.

Firearms are tools for self-defense! Not everybody can physically handle an attacker; some innocent citizens require an equalizer. Please do not forget the innocent who protect themselves and love ones all the time with their legal firearm! Removing firearms from the world will not remove the criminal element from the world; it will only make them stronger.
“Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.” [Patrick Henry]
“The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.” [Thomas Jefferson]
Needless to say, that is an idea that you must rip out of the minds of your subjects at all costs. The common folk should not view themselves as justified even in fending off a common crook by force, much less fending off a foreign invader, or fending off you
and your thugs. The revolutionary concept of a “militia,” consisting of the people in general, which stands ready to forcibly resist tyranny even from their own “government,” must be removed by any means necessary from the realm of possibilities in the Minds of the Peasants.
