/——/ So, why is he all hot and bothered about disarming Americans? It doesn’t affect him in the least.
Fun fact: After WWI, Great Britain completely disarmed. When Germany came knocking on the door 20 years later, GB had to beg the US for firearms and frantically teach recruits how to shoot.
By comparison, most Americans knew how to handle firearms when the enlisted.
At wars end, having learned nothing, GB disarmed again. Now the dregs of the Middle East are swarming in.
Yup, nice and safe in the UK. No knife incidents, no burglaries, no shootings here (Southern Scotland). Rare as hens teeth. Knife crime in the USA is much much higher PER CAPITA than the UK. Also, a handful of incidents that hits the news doesn't make it a pandemic. You're falling for the fallacies, lol.
You have much much much higher figures, so you add guns to the pot with still high figures, and then gun deaths go through the rough. Those that think guns save the day are dumber than a box of rocks.

British gun confiscation caused the American Revolution

This Article reviews the British gun control program that precipitated the American Revolution: the 1774 import ban on firearms and gunpowder; the 1774-75 confiscations of firearms and gunpowder; and the use of violence to effectuate the confiscations. It was these events that changed a situation of political tension into a shooting war. Each of these British abuses provides insights into the scope of the modern Second Amendment.
Furious at the December 1773 Boston Tea Party, Parliament in 1774 passed the Coercive Acts. The particular provisions of the Coercive Acts were offensive to Americans, but it was the possibility that the British might deploy the army to enforce them that primed many colonists for armed resistance. The Patriots of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, resolved: "That in the event of Great Britain attempting to force unjust laws upon us by the strength of arms, our cause we leave to heaven and our rifles." A South Carolina newspaper essay, reprinted in Virginia, urged that any law that had to be enforced by the military was necessarily illegitimate.
The Royal Governor of Massachusetts, General Thomas Gage, had forbidden town meetings from taking place more than once a year. When he dispatched the Redcoats to break up an illegal town meeting in Salem, 3000 armed Americans appeared in response, and the British retreated.

The problem with guns in America, it needs the current gun nut generation to die out and take it's stupidity with it. The same old shite that comes out is like a broken record.
Debate a gun nut and they default back over 200 years. Then criminals are everywhere let loose from jail, every other country has banned guns, and you saved the world from Hitler. The same old shit comes out every time.
Try being in the here and now and shove the stupid fallacies up your dumb arse.
The debate is, "FOLK ARE GETTING SHOT BY GUNS", and you default to Red Coats over 200 years ago. What a fucking retard.

/—-/ So, you are against enforcing gun laws already on the books, and letting criminals off easy. Just as long as law abiding citizens have their gun rights restricted.
OK.
