I’m not even talking about the languages, we have 20% immigrants in the population, and an even larger part has foreign roots.

We also don’t have weapons in every household, if we’re talking myths

It all depends if you did your military service (which implies that you're swiss) and if you didn't decide to drop out of it or deemed as unfit. I don't think it's a myth really, it just happens to be that a lot of people don't do their military service and thus don't have to keep a weapon at home

Both LA and Miami speak Spanish, no?

Only the Republicans have weapons in every household?

I'm joking, I realise that you are Swiss, but until I looked at the username I wasn't sure which side of the comparison you were referring to. Goes to show that even the nations' stereotypes are not dissimilar!
