Britain doesn't have the 2nd Amendment.....so criminals run free......if you are a citizen, you are at their mercy and if you go to far in trying to protect yourself....you will go to prison....
Leftists in the U.S. are destroying our police and releasing violent criminals...
Leftists in the U.K. seem to be doing the same thing....
Leftists are gonna leftist.......and innocent people don't matter...
Public safety is said to be one of the foundational principles of the British justice system. Today, that premise seems shaky at best. Take the case of Joshua Carney. In February, authorities paroled the Welshman after he had served part of a jail sentence for committing a series of burglaries in 2017. Carney has 47 prior convictions.
Less than a week after his release, he forced his way into a Cardiff house, locking a terrified woman inside. When her 14-year-old daughter heard her distress, she came downstairs. Carney proceeded to rape both the mother and the daughter. Last week, Carney was jailed for “life,” which means he’ll be up for parole in ten years.
It feels like the U.K. has emerged from its Covid-induced slumber to find that crime itself has been decriminalized. Consider the data for less serious offenses, such as burglary.
Of the 21,000 neighborhoods in England and Wales that suffered at least one burglary in the past three years, police failed to solve even a single case in 17,000 of those areas—a failure rate of 84 percent.
So....I ask this to vagabond and captain caveman....
Is it a better outcome that this woman and her 14 year old daughter were violently raped........instead of having a gun to kill the rapist?
Recorded crime in England and Wales is at a 20-year high, and just 6 percent of cases resulted in anyone being charged or issued a summons in 2021–2022—a 10 percent drop from 2014–2015.
With the streets of our major cities looking like scenes from The Purge, the public increasingly senses that the police have given up. According to recent data, only 57 percent of Londoners have confidence that the Met can be relied upon.

Anarchy in the U.K.
At 10 p.m. on Monday, August 22, Cheryl Korbel was at home in Liverpool when Joseph Nee, a convicted burglar recently released on license (roughly equivalent to the American concept of parole), burst through her front door, followed by an unidentified gun-wielding individual in a balaclava. In...
