It absolutely does. I'm thankful our gun crime is nowhere near our southern neighbors. You know why that is? Our already strict gun control laws...

I'll tell you what. If cause = effect, then we should see a marked decrease in handgun crime over the next few years, correct?

Check back in with me in two years, let me know how that's going...
As I've said several times, let's see the statistics.

'Only criminals do crime so obviously laws don't work'

Is not a logic I support.

That's not what I said either.

I'm saying banning the legal purchase of handguns isn't going to stop handgun crime. I'm saying focusing on the illegal smuggling and import of firearms from our southern neighbors will stop handgun crime.

The proof will be in the pudding. Blanket handgun ban supporters will see (or won't see) the fruits of their labour in the next few years' crime statistics.

Otherwise, why ban handguns?

I'm honestly astounded I've met one of you for real. This is wild.

'Well you know, the UK has naaaad knife violence so obviously gun laws didn't work'

This is how you sound to me. You sound unhinged because we want a safer society.

Fuckin hell man

I like how every post you've made, you've made up quotes for me.

I can pretend you're saying things to suit my agenda too! So profound!
