Would less guns mean less murders? Yeah, probably. Would no guns mean no murders? Not by a fucking long shot!
Lets all just come clean and put it right out on the table. American's only on this one (only because you Brits don't live here).
Raise your hand if you would like to see our constitutional right to bear arms taken away.
Anyone?
And now tell me cherry pickers - which rights would you NOT like to see taken away??
Maybe we should all be careful about what liberties we go walking all over. If the Brits are happy to have less personal freedoms than us and don't want to have access to a firearm ... Good for them. Having a few less rights seems to work for them. I would personally prefer to uphold the US Constitution as is and keep the rights I have. You start letting them take ones away that you don't care about - someday they'll take away the ones you do.
EDIT: That being said, I'm all for tougher restrictions for both users and manufacturers if needs be.
