i guess if they're equally intolerant of all religions it could be a good thing. anybody know if they've banned crosses yet? or six pointed stars?

Nope. Not even close. This was a specific Fuck you to a specific religious group. Apparently they wanted to ban Mosques outright but they couldn't bring it to a vote legally. And the worse part is polls in other parts of Europe show the same or even higher percentage who want to ban Mosques outright.

Europe has never been the land of the free. There's a reason a couple hundred years ago a bunch of dudes got in rickety boats and floated to North America so they could practice their religion in peace.

Yea, I think that's pretty much the case in this scenario.

The Swiss government are morons. They have fiat currency just like we do. It's pretty socialistic over there too just not as centralized as us, so you get some benefits like lower taxes in certain regions, and no wars being fought on the people's dime. Still, they force kids to enlist in the military at gunpoint, pretty insane policy if you ask me.

It seems almost every thread gets derailed these days. I think if criminals knew the chances were huge that the owner of that home they are about to break into posessed and knew how to use one of those assault weapons.... well..... you know what would happen :)


I think it's very very weird that on each version of that video on you tube the commetns have been disabled.

I think it's a solid argument. But I also think there are places like Compton, California where people are armed to the teeth and yet the crime rate is very high. Yet in Berkeley, CA it is a bunch of liberals and none of them have guns yet the crime rate is very low.

I'm pro-gun rights. But I don't think it's that simple an issue.
