Oh ya, I should also say one of the reasons I brought up the U.K is because anti-gun lobbiests often point to the U.K and Scandinavian countries and say, "see if we disarmed we would have crime rates as low as those coutries", which is COMPLETE B.S., like I said before.

The U.S and U.K are in two completely separate categories when it comes to violent crime. That is not to say violent crime does not happein in the U.K, OF COURSE it does, it is just not any where near on the same scale.

Just to explain why I brought the U.K into this.
