These people were already dead regardless if the tool was a baseball bat or a bomb.
Subman thats quite a claim can you back it up? Sounds like an opinion to me. :hmm:

PS. Your murder rate in the UK is more than double that.
Hmmm, must be all those assault rifles?:hmm:

UK murder rate is running at 2.03 per 100,000

Swiss murder rate is running at 2.94 per 100,000

Oh this is a good one:

According to a recent study of four cantons, family murders account for more than half of all homicides – a rate three times higher than in the United States.
Even higher than the US Subman!

But you're missing the point once again - The UK, when it had guns or not, had a murder rate that was a fraction of the rest of the world. This is normal for you guys. And 2.5 or 2.9 - same area roughly anyway, so I fail to see your point! Oh, by the way, your murder rate is rising but we've been through this in another thread. Maybe if you had a few firearms in the home, it would be going the other way! :p
