Re: Why is crime so high in England?
According to the FBI in 2005 there were 445 murders by rifles (not specifically Assault Rifles, just rifles in general) & in 2011 there were 323 murders by rifles (again in general)...but what is really interesting is that according to the very same FBI "blunt objects" were used in 618 murders in 2005 & 496 murders in 2011.
445 is LESS than 618
323 is LESS than 496
How long before this sinks in?

Ok and the President is talking about ONLY banning Assault Rifles which aren't used in the majority or even half or even 10% of murders soooooo your graph is pointless

Re: Why is crime so high in England?
I find it ironic how a couple of the guys on here who obviously dont like Americans much, are fighting for you all to disarm yourselves. You'd think they'd saying; "yeah go on, buy more guns, make it even easier to get them, so you can all have one.".
Instead they are saying it for one reason,to stop innocents getting killed by freaks in the future.
So whats more important? I say disarming the freaks and preventing more from arming themselves.
You need stricter vetting and stricter gun laws in regards to who.
Seriously what else can you do to stop innocents being continually plowed down?
What is your answer to the problem, or is there no problem in your mind?

1. We don't have a president in England

2. We don't have a major problem with gun crime in England
3. This is a thread built on the false premise that crime is SO HIGH in England.
4. Blunt objects are red herrings as demonstrated by the lovely red interactive graph I found.
5.Your points are pointless because this is not a thread about America, Guns. Obama or a constitutional amendment that allows for the arming of militias.

Ah people providing statistics they like and ignoring the ones they dont. The basis of any good debate.
