Criminals don't fear getting shot! Gun Crime Soars in England Where Guns Are Banned

I haven't see that sign go up.
In the nineties, the fool libs in my town support the anti-gun "Million Mom March" in Washington. It was supported by Rosie O'Donnell and Hillary Clinton, both of whom have their own personal armed security details. Some local supporters had short lived "MMM" bumper tickers on their cars. I wonder why? m/r


Gun Crime Soars in England Where Guns Are Banned - Katie Pavlich
Dec 11, 2012 

Since NBC sportscaster Bob Costas gave us an anti-gun lecture two weeks ago during Sunday Night Football, we've heard a lot from progressives like Juan Williams, Bob Beckel and anti-gun advocacy groups about how countries in Europe with strict gun control laws don't have problems with gun crime. We've also heard the reason the United States has a "gun crime problem" is because we allow citizens to own handguns however, the numbers on violent crime committed using a gun tell a different story.
New data out from the UK, where guns are banned, shows gun crime has soared by 35 percent.
The Government's latest crime figures were condemned as "truly terrible" by the Tories today as it emerged that gun crime in England and Wales soared by 35% last year.

Criminals used handguns in 46% more offences, Home Office statistics revealed.
