Knives used to work for criminals in Britain...now, they are moving up to guns...just like criminals in the U.S......in the 1950s going into the 60s, knives and zip guns were the tools of street gangs.....after the 60s they moved into guns......
Britain is no different, they just don't understand that yet...
It also ignores that the UK aināt as safe as some would like for you to believe.

Lethal firearms including submachine guns and rifles have been seized from the streets of the West Midlands, posing a blow to "very serious criminals".
Weapons associated with video games like Grand Theft Auto and Call Of Duty have been confiscated by West Midlands Police over the past two years, a Freedom Of Information (FOI) request shows.
They include revolvers, pistols and sawn off shotguns - the latter of which was the most popular choice of weapon taken from criminals.
It comes as a West Midlands Police sergeant had a handgun pointed in his face during a terrifying incident earlier this year, in which he thought he would die.

A former undercover cop who snared members of the Burger Bar Boys has warned violent gangs are in an āarms raceā to control the West Midlandsā illegal drugs trade.
Neil Woods, now a campaigner to legalise recreational drugs for rehabilitation benefits, said criminals are willing to use āextreme violenceā to gain an upper hand on their competitors.
That includes āimportingā illegal firearms from places like the āBalkansā region of south eastern Europe onto the streets of the West Midlands, ready for combat.
And he warned violence could spill out into rural towns like Shrewsbury and Hereford, where āgangs from Birmingham and Liverpool are battling it out for territory in county lines dealingā.
It comes as an FOI by Birmingham Live revealed West Midlands Police seized machine guns and sawn off shotguns from criminals in the past two years, including those in the Black Country.
