It can if you don't take supplements.

So? That's from your perspective and what I said is true.

I was just responding to what you said and I thought it was funny.

that you had to compare subsections of the countries instead of the whole country should tell you something, but then again i suppose once you buy the narrative that guns are the only problem in society you start putting blinders on
http://igeek.com/w/U.S._vs_U.K._-_Crime/Murder
Here’s a simple plot of the murder rates over time, for the U.S. (using the FBI’s UCR / Universal Crime Report) and U.K. (using their ONS / Office of National Statistics). And I overlay when they each enacted or removed gun controls. What you notice is:
Regardless of whether the UK has fewer murders than the US for cultural reasons, we know that gun control didn’t help the UK or US's murder rate. And in fact, seemed to have the opposite effect. Enacting them seemed to increase murders, and removing those allowed downward murder rates to continue.
Something to note is that Scotland and Ireland have higher murder rates than in England/Whales and the U.S. despite their gun control. So we know that gun control doesn’t work for Scotland and Ireland.
ConclusionAnyone vaguely informed on gun control issues knows is that the U.S. does not have a gun problem.
Another thing gun-controller advocates either don’t realize (or do, and lie about) is as bad as the U.S. is at murders or violent crime -- the UK is worse despite their gun control. England alone has something like 600 murdersby knife per year (and 26,370 knife crimes). Compare that to only 1,500 for the U.S., with over 5 times the population. Home invasion robberies, aggravated assault, violent rape, and stabbings are worse in the UK than in the U.S. And that's BEFORE you correct for race and gang crimes. So in the end, when it comes to trends:
Anyone that tells you otherwise is trying to prestidigitate the numbers, and baffle you with bullshit and fallacies -- not explain the numbers and show their work, as I just did. |
I see you, NRA bot.

Yes, it does.
Since 2013, 305 school incidents related to firearms occurred in the US, around one a week.
From 1966 to 2012, the US was the country with the most mass shootings, 90, 72 more mass shootings than the second place, Philippines, that had 18.
Between 2000 and 2010, the US (population of 309 million people) had 27 school killings with multiple victims. During the same period, Argentina, Australia, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Denmark, England, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Hungary, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Latvia, Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Norway, Poland, Russia, Scotland, South Africa, South Korea, Swaziland, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago and Yemen (total population of 3.8 billion people), had 28.
It doesn't matter if the murder rate is lower or higher when compared to other countries, the fact is that it would surely be much lower with better gun control laws.

You do realize only like 5% of the gun owners in the US belong to the NRA, right?

And how were those countries selected? Guising to prove someone point, they selected the countries with the lowest school shootings.
But look at a few posts before yours at the big write up. You can see that the average number of murders per year has increased in the UK as gun laws became more and more strict. Does correlation equal causation? If you guys are going to use that method, then I will.
Hey at least it's the first mass shooting this year where no one but the shooter has died. Silver lining.
