US Gun Ownership Debate

I suppose you mean because there it's easy or even legal to have a gun, like in the USA?

I once used to believe that the problem in the US is that guns are so widely available, but today I'm not so sure about that anymore, because there are many very safe countries that rank high in number of guns per capita like Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Austria, Canada and Germany.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_guns_per_capita_by_c...In Swit

That's in the US, though. In most european countries, there are close to no guns in circulation and this could change a lot of things.

Death penalty exists, but it is rare.Loaded guns exist, but they are not common. Most of them are in the hands of well trained people who are harmless unless (in the unlikely event) that deadly force is the only way they can get out of the situations.The US has its problems, but you have been listening to propaganda by anti US forces (you might want to figure out who they are and what their agenda is!) if you think either of the above issues are worth a worry.

You realize they don't have to shoot at people. The issue is the US's obsession with guns. Other countries do this without firearms successfully.

easy to get guns in other countries that don’t have mass shooting problems

Nope.US already has a lot of weapons, and getting them illegaly is a lot easier, than in UK, where they literally have to smuggle them from abroad, and being an island makes it even harder.I live in the balkans, and getting a gun here is very hard, almost impossible. People still get shot, and during the "wild 90s" here, there were a lot of shootings, even mass ones (not during the war, but after, or in in-war areas).The only difference is, that we have "different crimina

It's not just the attitude, it's also the sheer number of guns: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimated_number_of_civilian_g...The US is so far ahead of every other country, including Switzerland, that the argument "it works for the Swiss people" makes no sense.

People own guns legally in other first world countries and this is a problem fairly unique to the US.
