Here is an question for you = why are the crime rates way lower in country's that have weapons labelled as illegal, than in country's that permit weopons?
Do you mean with crime rates crimes committed with a firearm or all crimes? A. e. auto theft?
AND: Switzerland, where every person who has completed the military service may get his service rifle home and the country with one of the loosest gun laws in europe has an average homicide rate of 1.2 persons per 100000, UK with a maybe no-gun policy has a homicide rate of 1.61, and Scotland even 2.16 per 100000. How that?

Edit: typing errors;
And the guns used for crimes are very often illegal, and a complete disarmament of the normal people will lead to more burglaries etc., because then the criminals, who don't care about gun laws and get their guns at Ivan from the backyard know then, that no one has guns anymore so they can't defend themselves. Result: More burglaries etc.

STill it is all about the mentality of the country.
In The Netherlands criminals could get illegal weopons too, but compared to the USA we look like Alice in WOnderland.

It all goes wrong with the mentality of the people in that country.

I mean Australia is based on criminals brought there by England, and even they don't act this stupid.

USA mentality is much like that of middle-eastern people =

If ur done fighting with anotehr country, u start fighting with the other province (for example HAMAS and Fatah now are going after eachother), if ur done with that u start fighting with the other district and so on and on

But you compared all countries with guns legal, and all countries with guns illegal. Now, could you please tell me  a country where all types of firearms are illegal?
You obviously mean with country where guns are legal only the USA. And, in Netherlands, you may possess firearms, when you are a hunter or in a sporting club, so possession of firearms is legal there too.

No, ur wrong

In The Netherlands all firearms are illegal.

Military personal are not allowed to carry weapons out of their bases, unless orderd
Police have to leave their pistols in a safe at the police station
People who use weapons for sports need to have a license AND have to leave thier weapons in a safe at the club.

Sometimes a police officer took a gun home, since there has been an incident in which a police officer killed his family, and because of guns getting stolen, they aren't allowed to take guns home anymore.

And hunters? I don't think they leave their guns in the forest

As much as I like my .45 I'm beginning to really take a look at the .40 in paticular I was putting some rounds through a H&K USP .40 compact and it was pretty sweet went through a box of 50 rounds.

Just in case my arm(s) are (dead) or asleep  from sleeping in a weird postion I always keep a round in my Sig220R compact so I don't have to try to rack the slide to get a round chambered on a dead arm I just have to squeeze the trigger. Not saying I always wake up like that but just incase.

Damn I wonder how easy it is to get a gun nowadays anyways. I don't have a gun but I'd keep one to be safe. I actually have half a hockey stick next to my bed. It broke during a game, is incredibly hard and light so it could do a lot of damage and it's quick.

I just setup my shotgun so it's pointed at the door with fishing line tied from the door knob to the trigger.

That'll teach that leprechaun not to harass me about his pot-o-gold.
