Are you saying that England is just as dangerous as the U.S.?
Depends on which crime statistic you compare, but if we look at 'total crimes per capita', then England is in fact
more dangerous than the US. England ranks #4 in total crime per 1000 citizens, whereas the US ranks #22. This means England has a total crime per capita rate 3 times that of the US.
Of course, the US has a higher murder rate than the England, which is skewed by very high rates coming from just a few big-city counties (neighborhoods, actually). If you look at states without those groups of US citizens hell bent on murder, you find murder rates in line with, or even lower than, effectively disarmed places like England. That despite all the firearms in the US! For example, compare the murder rates in a state like Minnesota (lots of guns) to a place like Norway (very few civilian owned firearms). Over time, Norway actually has a HIGHER murder rate.
So, if you're defining "dangerous" as the murder rate, it would depend were in America you're standing before you could know if England is just as dangerous as the US.
Fascinating stuff!
Yes, they have more fist fights and stabbings but their schools don`t have active shooter drills and metal detectors. You see the difference I`m sure.
They didn't have those before they confiscated their guns either....do you realize that? They didn't have that many mass shootings to begin with........far fewer than we ever had......and after they confiscated their guns...they had a huge mass shooting....and almost had another one...
a 19 year old ordered a Glock 19 through the Dark Web with enough ammo to outdo Sandy Hook. He was going to go and shoot up the university that had kicked him out.....did they catch him because they have extreme gun control laws and confiscated guns......? No...
The only reason they caught him....the only reason...is he started posting about the attack on the social sites....and the police got wind of the attack...
the kid said getting the gun was as easy as ordering chocolates.....I posted this story when it happened...
And another thing genius......you see all of these stories about gun murder here in this post.....
Tell me..........genius.......they already all had guns....which British gun control law stopped them from walking into a school, a theater, a church, or a public building and shooting people...with the illegal gun they already had in their possession....
Can you tell me that genius?
The reason they don't have more mass shootings over there.....their nuts just don't do them.......
again...they had very few mass shootings before they confiscated their guns.......confiscating their guns did not stop the big mass shooting that happened after they confiscated their guns........
Gun control does not stop mass shootings...they just had a mass public shooting in Vienna...I posted about that too....
And tell me...genius.........how did the extreme gun control stop the murder of 140 people, and the wounding of hundreds more in France.....where military, select fire, fully automatic rifles are completely illegal........they have no gun stores where you can buy guns...and again, those rifles are already completely illegal...
Which gun control laws in France stopped those mass shootings....
Or stopped the guy on the Belgium train with the military rifle.....another completely illegal gun...
Please....try engaging your brain before you post......
