You have an island…..you have extreme gun control laws…..yet…..gun crime is a growing problem in the U.K.

How is that possible?

Just asking, for a friend…..

The threat of gun crime in the UK

Weapons trafficking and gun crime in the UK is being seen as a growing problem. Police are now reporting that firearms being used in incidents appear to be ‘clean’ new, trafficked guns opposed to ‘dirty’ reused guns that have been previously seen in other offences. Although the United Kingdom remains one of the strictest over its gun laws and is leading Europe in responding to trafficking firearms, incidents continue to occur and gun crime in the UK is still increasing.
————
As a result of this, and despite increases in the volume of weapons being trafficked into the UK, the majority of cases involving firearms in the UK do not directly target businesses or ‘civilians’ not involved with organised crime. Instead, firearms are typically used by criminal gangs in actions against each other.



Going into the 1960s, this was also the case in the U.S……where criminals used guns primarily against each other and youth gangs used knives against one another………….then, with the leftist policy changes here in the U.S…..our crime rates sky rocketed starting in the mid 1960s…..

Another look at gun crime in the U.K…..

OP posts this junk every so often. US is droening in mass shootings so look over there..

All 12 of our mass public shootings in 2022 cant come close to the 15 million you Europeans murdered in just 6 years.

With 74 murdered in those 12 mass oublic shootings can you tell is how long it will take us to match the 15 million you guys murdered?

Please, show your work
