The majority of this sort of crime mentioned is gang related and the majority of gangs also have firearms. People from outside of the UK believe that just because firearms are illegal, people don't have them, when actually this is completely wrong. There are a lot of shootings across the UK, even where I live up north and I wouldn't say I live in a terrible area, but I know people who carry knives and guns.

Making them legal would make them easier to be obtained and the problem would just spiral and would get out of control, like it has in the states. Gang related crime would worsen, therefore having a knock on effect and causing an increase in robberies, assaults etc.


@"Dismas" People don't blame cars when there are accidents, but they blame guns when there is a shooting.

Cars are made to drive. Guns are made to kill.

Also, trying to fix millions of "mentally ill" minds is definitely a harder task than restricting gun laws.
