Just out of curiousity, if everyone involved had all been armed to the teeth, how could they have prevented any of these killings in the circumstances in which they occurred? Asking for a friend...
Once again 2aguy is lying through his teeth. The only weapons banned were handguns under a certain barrel length and semi automatic assault rifles. None were confiscated, they were bought back from gun owners, there are still roughly 1.5-2 million legally owned firearms in the UK not counting Northern Ireland. There are an estimated 1.1 million unregistered/illegal firearms in the UK, including Northern Ireland.
The UK has never had a gun culture; handgun ownership was always a "fringe" movement. Basically, we don't need handguns for self defence over here. The 1996 Act was designed to prevent the possibilty of any growth in mass shootings, like you have in America, so far it has worked, albeit with one or two notable exceptions since.
Another moron points to a country with a fraction of our gun deaths and says “see what happens when everyone doesn’t have a gun?”
FOR SALE :This isn't supposed to happen......Britain banned and confiscated guns from their law abiding citizens...but criminals need guns to protect themselves and their illegal businesses....so gun control laws will not stop them.....and it hasn't...
Olivia Pratt-Korbel was shot dead when she was standing behind her mum as a gunman opened fire through a gap in the doorway at the front of her home on Monday night. Merseyside Police confirmed at a press conference that a gunman wearing a balaclava approached two men on Kingsheath Avenue, at the Finch Road end of the road, and opened fire at them just before 10pm.
Olivia's mum Cheryl opened the front door to see what was happening before one man forced his way into her home, followed by the gunman. A number of shots were fired before one bullet hit Cheryl in the wrist and Olivia in the chest.

Wow, I can't believe it.
You mean you guys don't want legislation like our 2nd Amendment? It's been such a rousing success over here. 30K gun deaths a year and counting....I can't believe you don't want to import that sort of mayhem into your nation.
Yet you’re the one shrugging at 30,000 gun deaths a year.You are insane...
Yet you’re the one shrugging at 30,000 gun deaths a year.

If that were true, then there'd be no "home invasions" in gun soaked America.One, the criminals might not have just barged in without fear of getting shot.......
Well, unregistered firearms in the UK includes antiques. A friend of mine has two Martini-Henry rifles and an Adams revolver. He has no firearms licence, but is considered legal. As for walking into a school, blah, blah. Aren't such massacres in America carried out by "normal" "responsible" gun owners who have no criminal records until they pull the trigger?And please......using your number....with the 1.1 million unregistered guns in your country, what keeps the owners of those guns from walking into a school, a mall, a church, or a theater and shooting people....? Please, do tell....
Well, there was no obligation on the Government to compensate gun owners at the time, it was just the fair and civilised way of getting handgun owners to comply with the law.Moron.....forced "buy backs," which are not buy backs but confiscation with reimbursment is confiscation....you doofus.....
Ah, comparing chalk and cheese again. Your gun murders were carried out in peacetime by civilians, ours were carried out during a brutal war, by Far Right wing Fascists and Far Left wing Communists, and their puppet regimes, usually by soldiers or security forces in response to acts of armed resistance to those regimes. If you can't grasp the difference, I pity you.You have to explain to us how it is that we have about 2 million gun murders in our 246 year history...if you allow 20,000 gun murders each year.......and that is giving a lot of extra gun murders to use that number....
In Europe, across the pond from you, after they took guns away from people in the 1920s........in 6 years, from 1939-1945 you guys murdered 15 million innocent men, women and children......6 years.........
