On Fri, 25 Feb 2005 15:30:29 GMT, "Yabbadoo" I live in a little village. I can sit out in the yard overlooking the countryside and enjoy my pond without the remotest possibility of a "drive-by" shooting or accidental firearm discharge posing a danger, unlike many parts of the world where gun ownership is rife and legal, as is lack of control of the owners. You can tell yourself that f it makes you feel better, but the fact is that gun-related crmes rose dramatically in the UK after total gun prohibition was enacted. You can tell yourself that if it makes you feel better, but the fact is that gun-related crime in the UK is still vastly lower than in the US, or even Canada. "Facts" make it quite clear that gun-control or the lack of it makes almost no difference to crime rates. _attitudes_ to guns, make a huge difference. -- derek |
