>It is not that it is impossible to carry a gun up here. As you said you can buy a gun elsewhere and illegally get it into the country. However it being illegal makes the availability of guns low. So suicide, accidents and impulsive actions are less likely to occur with guns. Criminals still will carry guns.... that is not something we can prevent. We cannot prevent people getting shot by illegal guns. However we can prevent all the other crap that goes with the widespread availability of guns.
Perhaps we just cannot simply compare our small country with a large country. Here allmost all people have police posts nearby. I think that even most Dutch farmers have a rifle around.
