Sweden is planning gun bans and tighter gun control after the country’s stringent controls failed to a prevent a February 4, 2025 school shooting.
On February 4, Breitbart News reported at least five people were killed in the shooting. On February 7, Reuters noted the reported number of deceased had increased to eleven.
Justice Minister Gunnar Strommer told Reuters they are looking to ban AR-15 rifles as a “preventative measure.” Strommer said this even though the specific type of firearm(s) used in the attack has not been reported.
Authorities have only indicated that the attacker, a 35-year-old man, had rifles with him which he was licensed to own.
BBC noted that Sweden also plans “to increase vetting around gun purchases.”

Sure. Make it illegal for vicious criminals to own guns. That’ll solve the problem. Just like it has in Chicago & DC...
don’t forget sticks, rocks, spoons, lamps, plates, hammers...might as well outlaw possession of everything. wouldn’t it be easier to just outlaw killing people?
Braindead liberals. It’s the people stupid! Not the guns. Guns are inanimate objects.
I waa gonna say they need to ban Volvos while they’re at it. Just to be on the safe side. Fidiots!
Good list lol
Stupid is as stupid does. Banning never makes the populace safer.
Does Sweden have a bomb ban? I ask because bombs regularly go off there.

Sweden averaged over one explosion per day in January 2025, marking a disturbing new high for the country once renowned for being quiet, peaceful, and safe.
A muslim ban would work better.
What idiots.
Typical leftists.
Gun control doesn’t work now so double down and pass MORE gun control for criminals to ignore.
And then a few years later, you have one of your stars make a documentary about “Our knife crime crisis”. Like this one on the BBC: “Idris Elba: Our Knife Crime Crisis”.

Sweden is making a big mistake.
In fact, they should just start locking themselves up.
And just existing in general.
Exactly.
At all.
Just like other lefty countries.
💯.
