Won't matter if they invite the enemy inside.

I wouldn't call it hiding, per se. Half of the country is a mountain fortress. No one wanted to invade because even if the invaders were victorious, which they likely would be, the Swiss would inflict massive losses for a Pyrrhic victory at best.

Besides the women, what natural resource makes Switzerland worth taking?

They aren't the rest of Western Europe.

Remember, they ban minarets and the burqa

Currently the Swiss air force has a peacetime strength of 1,600 career military and about 20,000 reservists on call.
Now do one southern State, like Alabama. I would rather deal with the Swiss Army than the general population of a southern State.

There are approximately 377,310 veterans living in Alabama, according to the Alabama Department of Veterans Affairs (.gov).


Hell, I'd be willing to wager a large sum of money that Alabama has way more firearms in private hands, than total amount in the entire country of Switzerland.

True but the ranges they can shoot at are boring AF. Plus you can’t just shoot on your property or carry in public.

Although, some of their ranges have highways running right through the middle of them

but they’re Alabamans, owning a shitload of weapons doesn’t mean you know how to use them properly/effectively

You would be correct.

Same for nearly all states.

Hell, even when you only account for recorded gun sales louisiana has 2x as many in circulation.

Never been tested by combat- check
Have no idea how they would respond under fire- check
Overly complicated, over engineered weapons manufacturing that lack a long track record of performance when compared to Soviet or US weapons production- check
Silly article that over embellishes Europe’s military capabilities-check

Watch the damn you tube and the private bunker they toured complete with 10,000 various guns with ammo, rocket launchers, tanks with ammo etc., dozens of military vehicles etc. No private person here has all that.
