What do neighboring European countries think of Switzerland's gun policy?
gpt
First of all you might want to ask what exactly Switzerland's gun policy is, and what effect it has on daily life in Switzerland.

There seems to be a misconception in some circles that Switzerland is in some way like the United States in its gun policy, and that gun rights there is somehow a big deal as it is in the United States with people driving around with gun racks in their pick ups, and ominous warnings about how often and with what caliber they will be shot if they try break into someone's house.  It is not like that at all.

The Swiss are a generally civilized people in a carefully regulated society with low crime rates and a competent police force.  Other European countries think of millions of things when they think of Switzerland, and guns are not one of them.  Cheese, mountains, banks, skiing, pocket knives... no guns.
