Gun nuts demonstrate a surprisingly high level of ignorance about gunshot death. 

They used to cite Switzerland as some sort of proof about guns in homes not being a hazards. In fact Switzerland had the 3rd highest rate of gunshot death among developed countries, after the USA and Finland, driven by the Swiss Militia practice of sending home automatic rifles and ammo with members. 

The Swiss gunshot fatality rate from military firearms alone was higher than the total gunshot fatality rates in Germany, France and Mafia plagued Italy, but gun nuts touted the Swiss militia putting guns in homes as a safe situation. Go figure.

It was a bit like Ann Coulter pronoucing that Canada send troops to fight with the USA in Vietnam, or the recurring pronouncements that "more 9/11 terrorists entered from Canada than the USA". (zero is not more than zero)
