You point out a country that has 35 homicides by gun when we have over 11,000 that year. You use a vague description of what a gun crime is in the UK and compare it to a country with more than that many homicides by guns. What about the people who were shot in America and didn't die?
Your day is done, so deal with it! We don't buy your crap.
One more time.
Gun violence increased even though they had exactly the system you described. The mere fact that the UK has less gun violence than the US is irrelevant. It had less gun violence than the US before they passed the laws you are so fond of.
Stop trying to deflect. Or, f you think you actually have a point, learn that you don't.
Those incidents were not gun violence, so read it again!
I did, before I posted the link. Since you, quite obviously, skipped right over my link, I will post it again.
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.
Firearms were used in 9,974 recorded crimes in the 12 months to last April, up from 7,362.
It was the fourth consecutive year to see a rise and there were more than 2,200 more gun crimes last year than the previous peak in 1993.

Please, tell me again how requiring everyone to register guns will magically make us safe, even though it failed every place it has been tried.
