Maybe it has something to do with gun control, maybe not, it is hard to tell. However, in the UK, gun deaths are actually higher now than they were 100 years ago. So arguing that gun control in the UK has reduced gun deaths is... I don't even know which word to use.
Let me see if I’ve got this sussed:
When gun death rates decline, gun control may or may not be the reason. However, an increase in guns deaths is easily attributed to gun control.
Is it at all possible that there are other factors in play?

I didn't say that gun control is the reason why there was an increase in gun deaths in the UK. Helios claimed that gun control worked in the UK to decrease gun deaths. The fact that there hasn't been a decrease of gun crimes in the UK proves that wrong.
