The discipline of Swiss with national service for all 16-50 year olds two weeks a year makes the most sense, imo, for teaching skills of personal defense and safety, national defense, and socializing our diverse cultures.

Now that's more like the posts I am accustomed to reading from you, MSI. It is a very good idea, if for only the reason that insulated citizens, whether at the top or the bottom, would learn that our differences are not all that great in so many ways, that we all share a common humanity with one another.

in our neighborhoods, individuals that are armed and in neighborhood watch programs have a better chance at protecting against armed or unarmed terrorists than unarmed ones.
An individual with a golden retreiver has a better chance of surviving an encounter with a terrorist. Armed neighborhood watch groups are as likely to shoot the watch group from the next neighborhood.
