The occupied home burglary and assault rates in the UK are magnitudes
higher than in the US.
And a little known fact..if one removes the gang killings where gang
members kill gang members..the US falls to 1.5 per hundred thousand.
If you eliminated most of the UK murders on the basis they happened to
people who don't count, the UK rate would be lower, too.
So in the UK...the dead dont count? Fascinating world view you
hold.Cold, nasty and brutish..but typically English.
That's the sort of sophistry that gets you a smack in the mouth in most
places.
And earns a serious beating in return for that smack.
So I say..about those gun deaths when firearms were readily available to
all Brits....1 in London for the entire year, when gentleman carried a
pistol and ladies had a pistol in their hand muffs... And now when they
are utterly banned...
There's absolutely no evidence at all that people carried guns as a
matter of routine when no licenses were carried, indeed there's some
evidence that nobody carried guns at all outside sportsmen carrying them
to and from getting them repaired..
Laugh laugh laugh...oh of course not.

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
