Swiss politicians, of course, responded with disbelief to the army chief and hold his warnings are exaggerated.

“Total Resistance” by Major H. Von Dach is well worth the read. It’s illustrative of the Swiss mindset.

Swiss Citizens used to be armed until their government adopted EU style gun control laws.

Acquiring guns and sufficient ammunition is good advice for all citizens, Swiss or not.

I thought most Swiss males basically were already armed.

Doesn’t the Swiss Army send home every conscript with their battle rifle and a certain amount of ammunition? They then bring them back in every 2 years or so for updating and training? Am interested to hear from anyone who has better knowledge than I.

Sounds like an ideal way for a small nation with decentralized government to defend itself and its culture.

“the experience of 1939/1945”

I believe most of the world refers to that as WW2.

I have a solution, STOP IMPORTING foreign & un-assimilated Muslims!

Europe doesn’t have the cultural skills or history to assimilate such a large group of people, particularity now when it is already overflowing with them.

There are too many people in Europe willing to bend over backwards to accommodate foreigners, rather than insist that they merge with the population adopt the local customs and culture such as is the cases with EVERY OTHER IMMIGRANT in the world.

When in Rome do as the Romans!

Only invaders refuses to assimilate, and Europe is by no means ever even pretended to be a land of immigrants. if you want to live in Europe learn and adopt the local customs, language, and culture. Work to blend in not stand out.

US civilians comprise the largest army in the world. Don’t let our politicians disarm us. Rattle those sabers.

We aren't no thin red 'eroes, nor we aren't no blackguards too,
But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you;
An' if sometimes our conduck isn't all your fancy paints,
Why, single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints;
While it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an` Tommy, fall be'ind,"
But it's " Please to walk in front, sir," when there's trouble in the wind
There's trouble in the wind, my boys, there's trouble in the wind,
O it's " Please to walk in front, sir," when there's trouble in the wind.
