check out how great it has been over here in chicago since guns have been bann'd, only 500+ murders a year :-|

if anything this shows more people need to carry weapons

gun laws don't work in Chicago because you can go to the next state or even city and buy your weapons legally to do your dirt, just like the mexican Cartels come to the US to buy their weapons.

yeah if that applied nationwide, it would probably drop to 50 murders or less a year

Funny, when the UK banned handguns, murder rates didn't go down:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1440764.stm - Handgun crime up, despite ban.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1223193/Culture-violence-Gun-crime-goes-89-decade.html - Gun crime up 89% over a decade.

It is true that crime has decreased a little over the past couple of years... you'd be twisting it a bit to suggest this had anything to do with the ban. Especially when many of the years before the decrease (that is, over the next 10 years after the ban) crime levels were at the highest levels ever recorded.

Also, just look at the USA. Look at the states and cities which have fantastic gun rights, and compare them to those that have gun bans.

I guess being as liberal minded as possible sorts out problems. Repression causes the opposite.

Although, i live in London (the Capital City), i've hardly heard of shootings, stabbings are more common in the city
