Black folks praying in a church; murdered by a white man. Muslim folks praying in a mosque; murdered by a white man. Jewish folks praying in a synagogue; murdered by a white man. White men have a hate problem. And because of that, we all have a gun problem.

In Switzerland, every household has to have a gun, but there is no gun problem. hate + gun = problem

Mostly true, but’s let’s clarify the issue. Not every household has a gun. But able bodied adult males between the ages of 20 and 30 are expected to serve in the Militia. They receive firearms training. You can’t just go out and buy a gun in Switzerland like you can in the U.S.pic.twitter.com/LPrkq38LcE

So Switzerland actually has that “well regulated militia.”

Switzerland has real militia that’s trained by their country. In the US, a “well regulated militia” can mean Jim-Bob and Bobby-John sitting around a campfire chugging beers shooting off their motley collection of guns.
