for My history report I'm trying to prove that gun laws are typically bad for society and that crime rate depends more on culture/economy.
I've written responses to all these examples I just need specific examples now and come here to ask for links to the examples.
(btw links cannot involve the US)
I need examples of:
-Example of crime rate going up after a gun ban was imposed in any country
-Switzerland's policy of obligatory gun training or whatever
-Switzerland's firearm death rates (if possible specifically homicides and accidents)
-proof of Switzerland's economic wealth (maby currency worth?)
-country with high crime rates where gun training is obligatory and homicide rates are high
-homicide stats
-proof that said countries economy is poor
-example of a chain of inventions sprouting from guns (example: nuclear bombs--> nuclear power)
-Australian law that bans spud guns
-example of guns being used to control animal population and explanation of what might have happened had the animals not been controlled
-example of public shooting put down by concealed weapon
If anyone can help me in finding these examples I am very thankful!
I will be looking for these examples myself aswell.
btw is maby a word, or is it slang... spell check marks it incorrect
thanks again!

This kinda relates to it, but nazi germany had gun control and laws and so did communist russia, and they were both pretty messed up.

You can find facts on Switzerlands economy and military here.
For a poor country with obligatory gun training you could look at these countries with compulsory military service.
It's spelt "Maybe".
