@raphjd Your comparison does not make sense... you are comparing 1 gun crime here to 1 gun crime in the USA.
When in fact the USA's gun crime figures are considerably higher. What you are doing is skirting the facts and figures to try and make a triangle piece fit into a circular hole.
So I wont go into too much detail but answer me this...
USA mass shootings... 130 so far this year.... UK... 7 since Dumblane. So if gun control does not work why is the USA on 130 mass shootings this year alone.
Lets compare that to the UK this year so its actually 130 vs 1. If we scale the UK up to the USA population it should be 26.
You can argue it all you want but the figures speak for themselves. I would have more respect if you just said "I like owning guns"
