Going from 2 to 4 is a 100% increase. Got any more fake scare tactics?Gun violence rare in U.K. compared to U.S.This is like the idiotic anti climate change comment "it was cold today." Boom, climate change debunked.
Hey did you hear that 2 states had done voter fraud investigations. They found literally 10s of ppl out of millions illegally registered. Serious problem. Rampant voter fraud confirmed.
Welfare fraud. I heard once someone was collecting in two states! Abolish the whole thing! Not on my watch are those selfish worthless wretches going to take my hard earned money!
I can go on and on.
Meanwhile real crooks are buying their way out of the types of penalties that petty criminals get put away for.
Maybe you do support this, but by your own logic, hard drugs should be legalized. Because the ban sure as heck ain't workin!

yeah...you are new....no one is making that argument....we are making the argument that taking guns away from normal, law abiding people doesn't lower the crime rate......what lowers the crime rate is locking up criminals....for violent felons, 30 years needs to be the minumum...
As their violence levels grow......their criminals will become more willing to commit acts of murder......and their violence levels are off the charts....Britain is more violent than the U.S. and their people are helpless....in fact, they face arrest if they defend themselves and injure their attackers...
Violent crime on the rise in every corner of the country, figures suggest
But analysis of the figures force by force, showed the full extent of the problem, with only one constabulary, Nottinghamshire, recording a reduction in violent offences.
The vast majority of police forces actually witnessed double digit rises in violent crime, with Northumbria posting a 95 per cent increase year on year.
Of the other forces, Durham Police recorded a 73 per cent rise; West Yorkshire was up 48 per cent; Avon and Somerset 45 per cent; Dorset 39 per cent and Warwickshire 37 per cent.
Elsewhere Humberside, South Yorkshire, Staffordshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Wiltshire and Dyfed Powys all saw violence rise by more than a quarter year on year.
Still way more gun violence in US than in UK. And UK is WWWAAAAYYYYY safer than the US as well. You even have less chance of dying while in the army than you do walking down the street in the US.Your argument is nonsense, things got so bad in the US so more people felt the need to be packing. Hardly a model society to be bragging about.Still a lot less than in the US. Please try again.Yeah......that used to be the case.....now their social welfare state has been destroying the British family, and their culture can no longer civilize the young males raised in single teenage parent homes...
Gun crime in London increases by 42% - BBC News
Gun crime offences in London surged by 42% in the last year, according to official statistics.
The Met Police's figures showed there were 2,544 gun crime offences from April 2016 to April 2017 compared to 1,793 offences from 2015 until 2016.
Knife crime also increased by 24% with 12,074 recorded offences from 2016 to 2017.
============
And this....
One person killed or badly injured by guns every three days in London
The statistics, obtained by the Standard under Freedom of Information rules, showed that the total number of people threatened, shot at, injured or killed in a shooting rose by almost 80 per cent, compared to 2015 when there were 10 deaths, 52 serious injuries and 322 fewer serious offences.
There is no trying again......
You twits tell us that bannign guns will lower the gun crime and gun murder rate...Britain shows that you are wrong on both counts....
Then, you go to the United States where we have more guns than ever before, and more people than ever before are carrrying them for self defense....and the facts who you are wrong again...
You don't understand the dynamic involved.....and that the gun ban is making British people less safe...as the young males created by their social welfare state are becoming more violent, and more prone to murder.....
We went from 200 million guns in private hands in the 1990s and 4.7 million people carrying guns for self defense in 1997...to close to 400 million guns in private hands and over 15 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2016...guess what happened...
-- gun murder down 49%
--gun crime down 75%

Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware
Compared with 1993, the peak of U.S. gun homicides, the firearm homicide rate was 49% lower in 2010, and there were fewer deaths, even though the nation’s population grew. The victimization rate for other violent crimes with a firearm—assaults, robberies and sex crimes—was 75% lower in 2011 than in 1993. Violent non-fatal crime victimization overall (with or without a firearm) also is down markedly (72%) over two decades.
No.....as more people began carrying guns, our violence levels have gone down....after they banned guns for normal people in Britain...their violence levels went up.....

Here you go...more facts, to show how wrong you are....
US murders concentrated in 5 percent of counties
“It is stunning how concentrated murders are in the U.S.,” John Lott, president of the CPRC said to Fox News. “And we show that even within these counties, with all these high rates, murders are very concentrated.”
“These high [rate] counties have very large areas where there are no murders.”
In 2014, the U.S. murder rate was 4.4 per 100,000 people, according to the data of the report. If the deadliest 5 percent of the counties were removed, the U.S. murder rate would be 2.56 per 100,000 people, the report showed.
More than half of last year’s murders occurred in only 2 percent of the nation’s counties.
Looking at the historical data, the CPRC said that murders were even more geographically concentrated in decades past. On average, 73 percent of counties in any given year had zero murders from 1977 to 2000.
Take for example Los Angeles County, which had 526 murders in 2014 -- the most of any other county in the U.S. But parts of L.A. County, including Beverly Hills, Hawthorne and Van Nuys, had virtually no murders that year.
Indianapolis, Indiana had 135 murders but only four occurred outside of the 465 highway loop that encircles the downtown area.
A map showing the largest geographical concentrations of murder incidents across the country. (CPRC )
Washington, D.C. has large swaths without a single recorded murder. The study found that murders were overwhelmingly limited to the eastern half of Washington, D.C.
One of the most interesting findings in the report is that areas with the highest gun ownership rates have low murder rates.

Facts show you to be a massive cherry picker.Extreme cherry picking = meaninglessSo the US only looks good when extreme cherry picking is used. Got it.Still way more gun violence in US than in UK. And UK is WWWAAAAYYYYY safer than the US as well. You even have less chance of dying while in the army than you do walking down the street in the US.
And wrong on the U.S. as well....our violence is contained in tiny areas of our democrat controlled cities.......everywhere else has better crime rates than Britain...
Here you go...more facts, to show how wrong you are....
US murders concentrated in 5 percent of counties
“It is stunning how concentrated murders are in the U.S.,” John Lott, president of the CPRC said to Fox News. “And we show that even within these counties, with all these high rates, murders are very concentrated.”
“These high [rate] counties have very large areas where there are no murders.”
In 2014, the U.S. murder rate was 4.4 per 100,000 people, according to the data of the report. If the deadliest 5 percent of the counties were removed, the U.S. murder rate would be 2.56 per 100,000 people, the report showed.
More than half of last year’s murders occurred in only 2 percent of the nation’s counties.
Looking at the historical data, the CPRC said that murders were even more geographically concentrated in decades past. On average, 73 percent of counties in any given year had zero murders from 1977 to 2000.
Take for example Los Angeles County, which had 526 murders in 2014 -- the most of any other county in the U.S. But parts of L.A. County, including Beverly Hills, Hawthorne and Van Nuys, had virtually no murders that year.
Indianapolis, Indiana had 135 murders but only four occurred outside of the 465 highway loop that encircles the downtown area.

Washington, D.C. has large swaths without a single recorded murder. The study found that murders were overwhelmingly limited to the eastern half of Washington, D.C.
One of the most interesting findings in the report is that areas with the highest gun ownership rates have low murder rates.
The numbers show you are wrong. The facts show you are wrong. The truth shows you are wrong. The links show you are wrong. Reality...shows you are wrong.
How wrong do you want to be in one day?
