why the heck are they carrying rifles into grocery stores and candy shops?

Guns are tools that serve specific purposes. I have all sorts of tools, and I don't carry any of them along with me when I go shopping. (Other than reusable shopping bags.) I take tools with me only to the places I want to use them. So why would you take a gun along anywhere you didn't intend to use it?

Does Switzerland fear invasion from its neighbours?
