The purpose of gun control is to emasculate Law Abiders and prevent from exercising their right to self defense.

The British crown is satisfied that the crime rate among law abiders has gone down.

What makes us so different? We have the democrat party attacking and handicapping our police, then they make policies that release violent, repeat gun offenders over and over again....or, they don't charge actual gun criminals captured on video shooting at each other on a public street...

That causes our gun crime rates...

Normal Americans use their legal guns 1.2 million times a year to stop crime......according to the CDC.....far more lives saved with guns then taken by criminals using guns to commit murder....

At the same time....look at most of those countries, the ones in Europe....in 1939, they began to hand over their citizens to the German socialists for murder....

the countries of Europe, much like you guys today, promised their people safety from crime if they just handed in their guns....they did......and then their countries handed them over for mass murder by the German socialists...

What was that death toll?

German socialists

By genocide, the murder of hostages, reprisal raids, forced labor, "euthanasia," starvation, exposure, medical experiments, and terror bombing, and in the concentration and death camps, the Nazis murdered from 15,003,000 to 31,595,000 people, most likely 20,946,000 men, women, handicapped, aged, sick, prisoners of war, forced laborers, camp inmates, critics, homosexuals, Jews, Slavs, Serbs, Germans, Czechs, Italians, Poles, French, Ukrainians, and many others. Among them 1,000,000 were children under eighteen years of age.1

And none of these monstrous figures even include civilian and military combat or war-deaths

If you take 10,000 gun murders as the average in the U.S. each year, that makes for 870,000 gun murders in the 87 years since 1939........meanwhile, divide the lowest number given above....15 million by 87 , and you get 172,000 murders a year......but remember, those 15 million murders happened over only 6 years..until Americans...with guns, stopped the German socialists.....

So...you guys always want to leave out the murders committed by the governments of Europe........after they did what you want to do.....they took guns away from their peoples...then murdered them....in the millions.....

We have a lot less knife crime in our nation simply because most people don’t bring knives to gun fights.

They do have knife control in the UK but it obviously doesn’t work all that well.

Knife crime in Britain hits record high as offence reported every 11 MINUTES

KNIFE crimes in England and Wales has soared to a record high, shocking new figures show today.

Offences involving blades rose six per cent, with a crime reported every 11 minutes.

Crimes involving a knife or sharp instrument rose to 46,265 for the year to March, according to figures released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

The number is 51 per cent higher than when data of this kind was first collected in 2011 and is the highest on record.

Selling, buying and carrying knives and weapons

The laws on selling, buying and carrying a knife or weapon depend on the type of knife or weapon, your age and your circumstances.

www.gov.uk

The maximum penalty for an adult carrying a knife is 4 years in prison and an unlimited fine. You’ll get a prison sentence if you’re convicted of carrying a knife more than once.

Basic laws on knives​

It’s illegal to possess a banned knife or weapon. It’s also illegal to:

• bring into the UK, sell, hire, lend or give someone a banned knife or weapon
• carry any knife in public without good reason, unless it has a manual folding blade less than 3 inches long
• sell a knife to anyone under the age of 18, unless it has a manual folding blade less than 3 inches long
• use any knife in a threatening way

In Scotland, 16 to 18 year olds are allowed to buy cutlery and kitchen knives.

Lock knives​

Lock knives are not classed as folding knives and are illegal to carry in public without good reason.

Lock knives:

• have blades that can be locked and refolded only by pressing a button
• can include multi-tool knives - tools that also contain other devices such as a screwdriver or can opener

Banned knives and weapons​

It’s illegal to bring into the UK, possess, sell, hire, lend or give someone a banned knife, unless a legal exemption applies.

Oh good grief, another 2aguy BS thread. If you read the article, it basically destroys his argument, again. Next?

What a silly argument you make……you try to frame it as if all cities are controlled by liberals. They aren’t. Even cities controlled by repos the crime rate went up. It’s hilarious how ignorant the right is. Or is it more funny how you guys fall for Fix and Friends and their white trash ideology .

The murder rate rose in Republican cities, too

Fort Worth Police at the scene of a violent crime. If you're worried by the rise in violent crime — a real and troubling phenomenon — don't ask Republicans for solutions. All they can offer is a blame game that relies on dubious cherry-picked data. To get their message, just glance at...

Changing the story line ? Funny, the crime rate went up even in cities controlled by repos…dah. Your hypothesis sks. Oh. Oh, it’s “ many cities”. Really, Fix News doesn’t know wtf they are talking about.

Again....a cop in a republican city can still be destroyed by the democrats.....that is why cops around the country have stopped pro-actively policing their cities...why risk you job, pension and freedom when you can simply respond to 911 calls....slowly....

Off topic and made up shit. We’re talking about gop controlled cities who have seen crime go up....you lost, move on. Lying and ineptitude in not doing the research doesn’t work and it never did.

Nope....the democrat party war on police is a national problem......and democrat judges and prosecutors are in Red cities too...releasing violent criminals over and over again.

The U.S. has the 32nd-highest rate of deaths from gun violence in the world: 3.96 deaths per 100,000 people in 2019. That was more than eight times as high as the rate in Canada, which had 0.47 deaths per 100,000 people — and nearly 100 times higher than in the United Kingdom, which had 0.04 deaths per 100,000.
