    Hi
    Turned 50 this year and there are so many things I just don't understand, so I thought I would try and get some answers.
    One of the first things I want to try and understand is why so many people are allowed to die in the US every year from firearms and nobody is allowed to do anything about it, so I looked for a forum on Google at this one was top of the list.

    Let's see how it goes

    Welcome to the forum!! Sorry can't help but publish this...

    At least some in the UK are talking about "attacking crime at its roots" by focusing on criminals, after all, guns are already banned so they can't blame crime on guns shooting themselves. Meanwhile in the United States, as more and more people own guns, the rate of violent crime has gone down.

    No one in the U.S. 'allows' anyone to shoot innocent people. Violence happens even in your country where guns are banned.

    Because this country is saturated with guns. If more guns made us safer, we'd be the safest country in the world.

    Nice to meet you.

    Tell that to the criminal fraternity and maybe they'll junk theirs? Or not!
