Right, I would bet money on that. The Swiss are armed to the teeth, I
remember reading an article in National Review about it. They take their
right to bear arms probably more seriously than we do here with the 2nd
amendment, likely the Lichtensteiners are also armed to the teeth.

I believe it's Swiss law. I think they issue machine guns to all there citizens.
I don't think there are vary many rapes, car jackings, purse snatchings,
or muggings there. It's supposed to be a vary safe place to live.

People are pretty polite to each other when they know the other is armed. I
remember when concealed weapon licences were made legal for common folks in
Texas back in the 80's. The violent crime rate dropped pretty drastically.
