Point is Subman our murder rate is less that Switzerland's and having 300 people killed by guns compared to around 160 a year would seem to bear out that more guns = more people being shot dead.

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
Actually it fell by 1% from 2005/2006 compared to 2006/2007.

Even when it was rising it was still lower than the US.

Firearms offences fell by IIRC by around 14%, thats for the third year running I might add.

Returning to type I see can't win the argument so lets start mud slinging.
No - any rational mind would see that the Swiss have similar rates to you, and that your irrational mind blames their higher rates on an inanimate object - this is actually a sickness, but that's best left for another thread.

There is no mud slinging - just that you are obviously inexperienced in the world. Trying to explain something to someone of your age is like hitting ones head against the wall - you just won't get it no matter how many times I explain till you hit your 30's+.
