    No, it is about disarming the people so they can be preyed upon by criminal predators without risk.
    And corrupt governments desire for a monopoly of force.

    "According to data from the Metropolitan Police in London, 454 acid attacks were reported in 2016.
    This is a huge increase ( >173%) from the 261 reported attacks in 2015, and almost triple the number of attacks reported in 2012."
    CNN,There were more than 450 acid attacks in London last year, By AJ Willingham and Muhammad Darwish, Fri July 14, 2017.

    Given 70% of your five times greater than ours homicide rate involves firearms. That equates to 1.5 million needless deaths over the last 50 years or (to make that number live for you) more people than in all the wars you have fought since your existence as a nation .... you must be proud :roll:

    Criminals will always have guns - surely you know that by now.
    Especially when the know thaie potential victims have been disarmed for them.

    In a country with more firearms than individuals to legally own them at a one-to-one ratio? How exactly is "less firearms" achieved to a meaningful degree? Even a one percent reduction in the number of legally owned firearms will have no impact overall, despite one percent of the total in circulation being well over three million firearms.

    In fact, crime including gun crime soars after the people are disarmed.

    “Gun crime has increased five-fold in some parts of the UK”

    “In some parts of the country, the number of offences has increased more than five-fold.”

    “The statistic will fuel fears that the police are struggling to contain gang-related violence, in which the carrying of a firearm has become increasingly common place.”

    The latest UK solution: “Last week, police in London revealed they had begun carrying out armed patrols on some streets. The move means officers armed with **SUB MACHINE GUNS** are engaged in routine policing for the first time.”
    By JAMES SLACK FOR THE DAILY MAIL,“Culture of violence: Gun crime goes up by 89% in a decade,” 27 October 2009.(** emphasis mine

    So how does the rest of the developed world seem to manage so much better than you do ? We have criminals too ... only ours have far less easy access to guns and are hence far less lethal

    Which, once again, amounts to the use of a firearm, not merely ownership or possession. Pray tell, why is such ultimately proving to be so difficult to actually comprehend on the part of yourself?

    Except for the simple fact that it is not. Constitutional rights cannot be made subject to permitting requirements in order for their exercising to be regarded as legal.

    Used. Meaning it is not the ownership or possession of firearms that does anything to violate either the rights or well being of others. Rather it is only when a firearm is used for illegal purposes, that anyone is actually harmed. Meaning that the only way a firearm can actually violate the rights and well being of others is if a crime is being committed in the process.

    I just showed you how it works in the Gun Ban UK. Crime, including gun crime soared after the gun ban - now London has more crime than NYC.

    On the contrary I'm about as likely to be killed by lightning in the UK than I am by firearms and at least 50 times less likely than in the US

    Explain how the united kingdom is proving itself capable of physically preventing firearms from being smuggled into the region by outside forces. What methods are in place that makes it all but impossible for any new firearms to be introduced into the equation, and how there is no black market to be had for firearms. Explain how there is no one supplying firearms to meet the demand for them.

    You are far more likely to be shot now than before guns were banned. You are also far more likely to be stabbed or have acid thrown in your face.
    Do you bother to read the UK papers?

    Then the firearm-related restrictions implemented by the country resided in by yourself did absolutely nothing to result in lower rates, as they were already far lower than the rates of the united states to begin with.
