Answer me about US gun crime.
Until you do, you are the coward and the liar.
For all the UK cases involving guns, they do not compare with one weekend in Detroit, do they?
We have so few because gun controls work except for drug gangs? You have them too? And far more likely to use guns than anyone in the UK.
I cannot see that real gun controls are ever likely to work in the US because so many people are against them. That doesn't limit their effect in other parts of the world. But you don't believe the data and continue to lie.
Gun crime exists because prosecutors don't prosecute offenders, not because there aren't any laws against criminal gun usage. One needs only to look at the Federal courthouse security guard who was shot during the rampage of 2020 whose murderer WAS RELEASED WITHOUT BAIL to understand that. Ditto for gang shootings in whatever metro you want to list.
Gun control can't work here because we enshrined the Right to Keep and Bear Arms in our Constitution. Our founding fathers decided that us having guns meant more to liberty than bending over and taking it like yours decided to do.
In that regard; Winston Churchill had more courage in his fingernail parings than your entire society does today. You must stand up to those who want to kill you. If you won't, YOU'RE the damned coward, not the guy who tells you to stop crying because the bad man hurt your feelings.
