You know, the Swiss have a heavily-armed population too, in fact it’s probably just like the “well-regulated militia” that Jefferson envisioned. Yet they don’t have these mass shootings happen every week. Sorry to sound like a cranky old conservative (which I’m obviously not), but I sometimes think there’s something uniquely fucked up about our culture.

Here in the Czech Republic, a lot of folks have firearms. We also don’t have weekly mass shootings.

It’s something in the culture. Czechs get pissed off like everyone else on that planet, but they’d be far more likely to punch you in the face as opposed to shooting you. And that’s even with people who do have concealed-carry licenses here.
