Hmmm...for a country with gun control, Britain has a lot of shootings....

[Tommy Tainant]

I have never owned a gun, I dont know anyone who owns a gun.
I have just been to the local shop to buy some milk and I did it without the need to arm myself. I got there,bought my milk and got home without being shot.I did the same thing yesterday.
It is obvious that Britain needs to start tooling up.

Try that in a democrat controlled inner city here in the states......true...the area is tiny where you have to be worried....since the rest of the country is as peaceful as Europe...but go into a democrat hell hole....and you take your life in your hands....

 

[2aguy]

And as I have pointed out........the criminals in these European countries are starting to shoot more......no matter what gun laws they have...

Like I said...you have to search for these shootings.....

Feb. 2, 2016........I guess that would put this at under 60 days...right..........?


Gang turf war behind 20 Birmingham shootings, police chief reveals

Police have revealed a gang turf war is to blame for at least 20 shootings in Birmingham in less than a year.

Assistant Chief Constable Carl Foulkes will tell the Police and Crime Board on Tuesday that the spiralling number of incidents is linked to just two city gangs - but they have not been named.

He will say six of 20 “known” shootings took place over one August Bank Holiday weekend and warned tensions mounted further after four people were wounded in a drive-by shooting outside a Costcutter shop in Hockley in October.

ACC Foulkes’s report comes after new Chief Constable Dave Thompson said last month that shootings were happening in Birmingham with “concerning regularity”. He said he had not seen as many gun incidents in his five years with the force.

As well as the gang-related incidents, ACC Foulkes will also tell the Board that there were seven unrelated shootings in East Birmingham over Christmas and New Year.

To combat the spiralling violence the force has already mounted 23 tactical firearm operations involving armed officers in January alone and has increased firearm patrols in “specific areas” across the West and Central area.

Police have revealed a gang turf war is to blame for at least 20 shootings in Birmingham in less than a year.

But.....I thought they confiscated the guns...how are these gangs shooting at each other?

 

[Tommy Tainant]

People cant go to the cinema without a gun.
That is not right.

Yeah...doesn't sound like these two guys heard about the gun confiscation in Britain....


Two arrested in parking lot shooting

Two men were arrested overnight in connection with the city's first shooting of the year.
---
Police found a man with a single gunshot wound in the parking lot at 1165 Oxford St. E., just west of Highbury Avenue, about 1:30 a.m. Sunday.

The unidentified man was treated at hospital for non life-threatening injuries and discharged.

----------------------
This isn’t the first time the east-end plaza — also housing a martial arts studio, Tim Hortons and a Goodwill — has been the scene of violence. On April 18, 2010, a man was seriously injured in a shooting in the parking lot. On Sept. 25, 2005, Joshua Williams, 22, was killed and another man was injured in a shooting outside the Roxbury.

Dwayne Pitter, a drug dealer from Vaughn, was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 11 years in prison.

And with the infectious invasion of Muslims, it's only going to get worse. Especially on mainland Europe.

And as to the nature of the problem in Britain...
London overtaken as gun crime capital of England and Wales

"The West Midlands, which did have 18.1 incidents per 100,000 people has now overtaken the London figure with a rate of 19.4 – making it the highest of anywhere in England and Wales.

Two other major urban areas of Greater Manchester and Merseyside also have lower gun crime rates than the West Midlands at 14.6 and 15.3 per 100,000 respectively.

Across England and Wales there has been a five per cent drop in gun crime in the past 12 months and the figures have nearly halved in the West Midlands since 2007/08 when there were 974 incidents.

Senior police officers described the latest overall statistics as encouraging and showed that firearms are used in a very small proportion of total police recorded crime of 0.2%.

Deputy Chief Constable Dave Thompson, ACPO lead for Criminal Use of Firearms, said: “This is encouraging news and we will continue to tackle gun crime in our communities."

Seems to be working. Shame for you eh?

 

[2aguy]

Yeah...doesn't sound like these two guys heard about the gun confiscation in Britain....

Two men were arrested overnight in connection with the city's first shooting of the year.

Will there also be another shooting, 60 days from now? That would mean five more this year, run for your life...

This is first shooting of the year, in London no less, and the victim was treated and released...

Hmmmmmmm.....this shooting took place when...? March 4, 2016......how long ago was that? Hmmmmm...let's see....oh...that is today.....but over there...

I guess that is less than 60 days huh......?

Man critical after gang shooting

Man critical after gang shooting


A man in his 20s is in a critical condition in hospital after suffering multiple gunshot wounds in a city street.


West Midlands Police said the victim was gunned down in Bevington Road, Aston, Birmingham, at 10.30pm last night after being approached by three masked men.

A police spokesman said officers were alerted to the incident by several 999 calls reporting shots being heard.

"Officers attended the scene and found an Asian man in his 20s lying in the street," the spokesman said.

"It appears he had been shot several times, possibly with a shotgun as he had a number of pellet wounds. He is detained in a critical condition in hospital."

Detectives, who have cordoned off the scene, have yet to establish a motive for the shooting, but say it does not appear to be linked to other recent shootings in the area.

If only they could be more like Tampa and its surge in gun deaths....with a rate double the previous year.

Chief Jane Castor highlighted the alarming surge in gun violence at a Monday news conference, calling particular attention to the youth of some of the victims, and pleading for the public's help.

"What we need is for the community to get angry about what is happening in our back yard," Castor said. "Our kids are being killed, and we've got to stop this."

Police funding cuts blamed for rise in gun and violent crime

Labour MP Steve McCabe (Lab Selly Oak) spoke out after it emerged West Midlands Policeare dealing with more than ten gun crimes every week.

It means the West Midlands is the gun crime capital of England and Wales - for the second year running.

Official figures show the force dealt with 562 firearms offences last year.

This was up from 540 the year before.

Funny...for a country that confiscated guns and has extreme gun control for the hunting shot guns that remain....sure have a lot of gun trouble........

Or do you mean this....

Homicides in England and Wales up 14%

The police-recorded crime figures include a 9% rise in knife crime and a 4% rise in gun crime, which are thought to reflect a rise in gang violence largely in London and Manchester.

The rise in gun crime is the first recorded for eight years and includes a 10% rise in London.

The official statisticians say that a 36% rise in sexual offences, including the highest number of rapes since 2003 – at 33,341 – reflect a greater willingness of victims to come forward to report such crimes rather than a real surge in attacks.

Florida Crime Down in 2014, But Murders and Rapes on Rise

The department reported the number of crimes per 100,000 residents dropped by 4.9 percent and was Florida's lowest level in 44 years.

There were 865,392 arrests made last year, down 5.1 percent from 2013.

And then the "Ferguson Effect" was created by obama and the democrats....


And what was the point of this thread.....Florida just broke 1.5 million concealed carry permit holders....and the overall crime rate is down, as they hand out 20,000 new permits a month...

Actually that is not true. As the studies show, allowing concealed carry lowers the crime rate.....except when the police stop doing their job because they are afraid black lies matter will ruin their lives.....
