lest not forget that the supreme court has ruled that the police are under no obligation to protect people.

gun control people seem to ignore this.

also people dont seem to realize that gun ownership really isnt tied to the amount of crime in a country. they fail to look at historical data. they love pointing  to countries like britian, but they has always had lower murder rates than the us, even before they implemented gun bans. and in fact crime went up after they baned guns.

its like saying country X  has reletively little gun control in 1930 and murder rate of 50 per 1000, but country Z in 1930 with also little gun control has murder rate of 10 per 1000. but in 2012 country x still has little gun control but murder 25 per 1000, and country Z banned guns and they have murder rate of 15 per 1000. 

look. country Z has soo little crime, and look how much country X has. Bann gunZ!!!!

It doesn't though. And your misconception of firearms really shows your ignorance. Firearms takes ammunition first of all. Secondly its a lot harder shooting and hitting a vital organ than stabbing one. You have 10 rounds in a clip. There is absolutly no guarentee that you hit anything let alone a vital organ with those ten rounds fired. However you stand right next to someone with a knife you must be retarded to miss. Third it takes knowledge of the firearm. What do you do when you get a failure to eject or stove pipe.

*looks at list of school shootings in England*

*looks at list of school shootings in America*

I'm fine thanks. 

crime in england has always been lower than that of the US. even before england banned guns they had significantly lower crime rates. and in fact when the banned guns crime went up. and crime in the US are at 40 year lows.

yeah, this is why you see so many people choosing knifes over guns to kill people right, because guns are so hard to use and it explain why in china no one died yet in the states even when the police intervene within minutes the guy was still able to murder 26 peoples. I see you are very knowledgeable but lack the ability to use your brain

You have absolutly no clue what you are talking about. Let Kaz link you the article that shows you have a 15% death rate from gun shots. Lets see what the death rate is for stabbing victims.

more people are murdered with weapons other than guns in the US each year.

true guns are typically more leathal, but are much harder to hit you target than you think. knives while usually less lethal are much easier to cause injury.

How do you define lethal? Because over memorial day weekend in Chicago there were 40 shootings (that were reported) and 10 deaths. Guns are faily ineffective unless up close. But that's what people use them. Get rid of guns there will just be more stabbings because they'll be forced to get up close. However, I bet a higher percent will die from wounds

ikr what an awesome country england is, wont have to send my kids to school with a bulletproof vest
