Why Switzerland Has The Lowest Crime Rate In The World.

+1. A lot of people in this country need to get that through their thick heads. The Constitution and Bill of Rights are meaningless without the force of arms to back them up.Originally Posted by MB888
Switzerland is not all peachs and cream, Ask Hannu
It's also chocolate and cuckoo clocks [/predictable]
Japan has a lower crime rate than Switzerland.

American Dad said it best when he said "Do you know what we call fish heads and tail in America? Garbage."Yeah, and they get to eat fish heads too. Yummmm.
Japanese people can't own a gun though. I would take a fighting chance with a little crime then a total ban on selfdefense with a firearm. I don't know if that's something we did after WWII or if normal poor people could own firearms. But I doubt it. Why? Because power hungry people in government have one thing in common no matter where they are. They want a monopoly on violence and want to use it as they see fit without questions.
I don't get it because I don't mind sharing.

I think a lot more of it is cultural. Yeah the guns help but think about the demographics of the country.
ETA:
Something I found interesting, according to a Wikipedia article foreigners commit crimes 3.7 times as much as locals. Immigration seems to be a problem there as well.
I don't get gun control and I don't ever want to find out the hard way what it means to without guns. I'm sure the real secret behind it all is a killer.

Yeah right, most rapes, violence, and petty crimes in Japan aren't reported. The LE doesn't even mess with the yakuza with a few exception. Iceland is usually what most says have the lowest crime rate in the world.
Wow
Umm, Shouldn't that Read "Japan has a lower REPORTED crime rate than Switzerland."?
My Wife tells me that her Cousins living/working in Japan will go to the Yakuza instead of the LE because they actually want something to be done.
Just sayin
