A survey shows a majority of the Swiss want to ban army weapons
from homes – scrapping a long-standing tradition of the country's militia army.

Centre-left political parties and pacifist groups are preparing a plan to force a nationwide vote on the issue as parliament considers alternative options.

Nearly two thirds of the people interviewed came out against storing personal assault rifles and guns in private households.

Once again the subtle gelding of another country slithers onward.

The Swiss president and foreign minister, Micheline Calmy-Rey, who is a member of the Social Democratic Party, is opposed to storing army firearms at home.

"What used to be part of our defence strategy has become a security risk," she was quoted as saying in the SonntagsZeitung newspaper.

Maybe the real security risk was putting Ms Calmy-Rey in a position of power.

" .. a security risk"?

Allowing people like Micheline Calmy-Rey to voice their ideological ideas is fine. But it ought to be a crime to attempt to overthrow a civilized country with them from a political platform or any public office.
