Welcome to Switzerland... Funny how they seem to muddle along.
Swiss gun regulations
45 minute video explains how they work, not the common myths.

Switzerland requires people to have a whole rifle which is obviously a step in the right direction; but it's only until they're 30 years old, and they're not allowed to ever buy ammunition for it except for at practice ranges for immediate use and they're not allowed to take any home, which is of course pansy-ass commie socialist liberal fascist maoist nazi antifa black-lives-matter BS. In America, we know that the whole point of owning a firearm is to be able to defend yourself, heroically stop mass shooters and sign-carrying protesters in other cities, and kill police officers in the name of freedom when the government becomes too tyrannical just like the Constitution says.
But Chicago!
9 injured, 1 killed when two "individuals" opened fire on a crowd after an argument.
I like the phrase "matter of American fact".
3 killed, 4 injured in Cleveland, Ohio.
1 dead, 3 injured in Winston-Salem mass shooting. "Police were on patrol in the area when they heard numerous shots fired."
If the racist police would only stop over policing these communities, crime would be nonexistent.

Then Switzerland doesn't have a problem. The USA clearly does.
Thank you for underpinning my point.
I think the worst thing about the situation in the US is not the ownership of guns, but the ability to legally carry them in daily life. The liberalization of concealed and/or open carry permits in the last few decades strikes me as insane.
Why? It will prevent arguments from escalating. The past few weeks here in Southern California, we've witnessed a steep decline in obscene gestures.
To me the answer to the question above is a no-brainer: “Of course.” If someone who did a crime is on the loose, then anything that might help apprehend him (most criminals are men) could be useful. That includes height, weight, presence of glasses, facial hair, clothing, and ethnicity. In fact, of all of these identifiers, ethnicity is the hardest to change if you’re fleeing the cops.
...
In fact, in this case the newspaper at issue refused to report any identifying information (though clearly race was the hot button) even though the cops already had. And they explained that they left out the information because it might “reinforce stereotypes.” Right then and there you know the criminal is black or Hisptanic.
I'm surprised that they were able to keep count.Witnesses reported hearing over 100 shots fired.
