I Think That When Guns Are Outlawed Only Outlaws Will Have Gun

2015, 13,200 people were killed by guns in the usa. In britain during the same period 15 deaths by gunfire. The USA has approximately 6 times the population of the UK.If we multiply the British figures by 6 we arrive at a figure of 90 British deaths as oppised to 13200 for the USA. The UK has strict and serious gun control, I suggest you all ponder these figures. It is not only the easy availability of guns which causes the damage, it is thev
American attitude to guns.

The fallacy of your argument/case is that you aren't using the same matrix between the two countries... Subtract suicides from the US's rate and the US is beneath what the UK experiences.. They do the same with birthrates and longevity... Here in the states, if a child is even delivered from the womb.. it's a birth.. other countries demand minutes and in some cultures, it's not a birth till they reach the age of 2 years! But.. I'll tell ya what... you can keep your culture... and we'll keep ours... When we have a Manchester type event, I'll be ready to respond with a Ruger Blackhawk .41 cal that I carry without need for "permission". Our "Manchester" will be 1/10th of what you and your helpless citizens experience. Continue on your way, and you'll see only the hapless and terrorist visiting.. No sane thinking tourist will find their ways to your shores. Yea. I know the response... so save it..
Footnote...Why does the UK exclude suicides by those under 15 y/o?
