Boondocking safety-Are you armed?
Looking for suggestions regarding Boondocking safety. With California RV camping spaces tough to get, I have been looking at secluded, boondocking areas and issues. Thanks

How strange that there are more gun shot deaths per capita in USA than in any of the other G7 nations. Yet the gun "carrying" USA members here feel "safer".
All the highest crime areas of the US have the most stringent gun control laws. Care to guess why! Here in Wyoming, we have the highest per capita firearms ownership of any of the 50 states....yet we are among the lowest in crime rates! In Switzerland firearm ownership is required...military assault rifles (Sig 550) are issued to all men above 20 years of age (unless deemed unqualified) and participate in the militia. Switzerland has the lowest crime rate in the world,
One of the most dangerous places in America....a gun free zone!
This is not true. Only those in the military are issued guns, which are returned or purchased upon leaving. There is no ownership requirement. Guns are not issued to every male over 20 years of age. They do have regulations and restrictions for gun ownership.
But you are correct that there is a high rate of gun ownership and a low rate of crime.
