Killing a family is not a public mass shooting ......that is how they lie...when people read "Mass Shooting" they assume you mean a shooting in a public space of complete strangers.....and of course the story this article is based on is not that.......it is a family killing ...

And guess what....they have those in Australia too...with all of their gun control....

Never, ever trust anti gunner journalists...they lie....

 

[tyroneweaver]

There was a mass shooting in Britain....and I notice it wasnt' covered by the U.S. Press...I guess that is because it would hamper obama's claim that Europe has gun control...

Now keep in mind...Britain had confiscation of guns, they have strict gun control laws, far more extreme than any here in the states and and they are a first world country, so the anti gunners can't say they are like Mexico so they can't enforce their gun laws......

Four men shot in legs in Birmingham - BBC News

From the BBC report.......so no...it isn't from the gun blog...they just linked to it...

Four men were taken to hospital with bullet wounds to their legs after a shooting in Birmingham.

Police said they were called to the Costcutter shop in Great Hampton Row, north of the city centre, on Saturday.

Three men remain in hospital for treatment for their injuries, which are not thought to be life-threatening.

West Midlands Police refused to speculate on any motive for the attack. There were no arrests and no direct appeal for witnesses.


And again....this guy could have walked into any school or a movie theater........so no...gun control does not work..even in Britain...

Four men shot in the legs and you think it should be reported in the US?

What's the total of gun murders in Britain?

Once again, you prove US guns laws are woefully lacking.

Thanks.

LOL, not really. It's you that is totally lacking. Ever wonder why the left such as you don't do gun studies on Murder and suicides. It's because that stats work against you. How about this Harvard study:

wikipedia
There's a Wikipedia page that shows the relation between gun ownership, gun murders, and population per state.

Gun violence in the United States by state - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For example: Maryland gun ownership in '07 was 21.3%, and gun murder rate per 100k persons was 5.1.

Meanwhile, West Virginia gun ownership is double that of Maryland at 55.4%, but gun murder rate per 100k persons is only 1.5.

If that page and its statistics were taken as a whole fact, it would conclude that more guns = less gun murders.

Britain has gun control. So does the US.

People in Britain can buy guns and legally own guns, so can people in the US.

I'm struggling to see what the OP has to say, probably because he's on ignore for continually posting total and utter crap all the time and with a tendency of having views which are just wrong.

Imagine the US without gun control, where guns were in prisons and everywhere else...... might end up with people getting shot 4.7 times more than in the UK. No, wait, that already happens now.

You mean inner city Chicago?

 

[2aguy]

And just like the list of "School shootings," they lie about that too, since people assume a "School Shooting" is a shooting inside a school.....and of course when you see the 172 school shootings...that isn't what they mean...they used any shooting in the proximity of a school or school grounds and called it a "school Shooting" to get that number......check politifact on that one....

 

[ClosedCaption]

Does britain have murder control or gun control?

Does britain have murder control or gun control?

You guys keep telling us that they are the same thing. And again...4 guys shot.......apparently they don't have gun control either.....

And please...maybe you will answer this...

What stopped him from walking into a theater?

Have there been 74 school shootings since Sandy Hook? A closer look at a tricky statistic

The main reason for the criticism of Everytown’s count is that its definition of "school shooting" is relatively broad. The group’s criteria goes beyond what many people would consider "school shootings" -- incidents in which a student or an intruder enters a school and fires at innocent students and staff. For many people, this is the first thing that comes to mind when they hear the phrase "school shooting" -- an incident such as Sandy Hook or, before it, the 1999 Columbine shooting in Colorado that left 15 dead, including the shooters.

Here’s the methodology as explained by the group at the bottom of the list:

Incidents were classified as school shootings when a firearm was discharged inside a school building or on school or campus grounds, as documented in publicly reported news accounts. This includes assaults, homicides, suicides, and accidental shootings. Incidents in which guns were brought into schools but not fired there, or were fired off school grounds after having been possessed in schools, were not included.... Incidents were identified through media reports, so this is likely an undercount of the true total.

This definition allows for incidents that don’t typically call to mind the term "school shooting" -- for example, a case in which a man unaffiliated with Alogna High/Middle School in Iowa killed himself in the school’s parking lot in the middle of the night, or an early-morning armed robbery on a street that goes through the Marquette University campus in Wisconsin. Both count in Everytown’s tally.

Clearly it is difficult to draw lines. The Everytown list did not include the recent and highly publicized shooting spree in Isla Vista, Calif. In that case, the shooter was a student at the University of California at Santa Barbara, and he targeted other students, including women living in a sorority house near the campus. Seven people died, but the shooting wasn’t technically on campus, so it didn’t make the list.

Our Breakdown

We reviewed news reports for all 74 shootings and did our best to sort them into five categories. Here’s our breakdown. (See individual shootings by category here, with clickable links to news reports on each shooting.)

• Incidents such as Sandy Hook or Columbine in which the shooter intended to commit mass murder: 10 instances

So....gun extremists lie....they lie about guns because the truth, reality and facts prove them wrong in every case....

We already have more guns. We have more people in prison. Its obvious that neither works. And yet, the nutters want more guns and more people in prison.

Yeah..not supposed to be able to happen after Britain confiscated all their guns and implemented strict gun control...but nice try....

And maybe you will answer....

What kept this guy from going into a British school?

What kept this guy from going into a British movie theater?

Answer....nothing.

The only reason they don't have more mass shootings in Britain...their nuts haven't decided to do it....

Except of course for the 19 year old who planned on shooting up his old school...I posted earlier about that one....he was caught...

 

[JakeStarkey]

OP is a hasty generalization apropos of nothing. And a fallacy of argumentum: gun control does not eliminate murders, it greatly reduces murders is the right argument. The UK's shooting and murder rates by gun are fare below the US in numbers and per capita. Move the OP to conspiracies, please.

Yes...you are wrong again luddly.....check table 10 of the CDC final death stats for the year...

http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr64/nvsr64_02.pdf

Kids murdered by guns....

under 1: 12
age 1-4: 39

age 5-14: 142

total gun murder of children.....193



Kids murdered by other means...

under 1: 270
age 1-4: 298
age 5-14: 135



murder of children by other means.....703

Now, if even if you include gun accidents into the total.....

you are still wrong....

Accidental death by gun for children....

under 1: 3
age 1-4: 27
age 5-14: 39

Total accidental gun death for kids 2013....69

So genius...how does 193 + 69 = 262

how does 262 equal 3 child gun deaths a day for 365 days a year...

365 x 3 = 1,095

Again...stop reading that crap from the anti gunners...they are lying to you ....

Straw man.

The argument isn't that gun control eliminates gun violence. The argument is that it reduces gun violence.

And in Britain - which has tight gun control - the rate of gun violence is multitudes lower than in the US.

What's Britain's murder rate again?

Britain the most violent country in Europe and even worse than South Africa and U.S.

The Tories said Labour had presided over a decade of spiralling violence.

In the decade following the party's election in 1997, the number of recorded violent attacks soared by 77 per cent to 1.158million - or more than two every minute.

The figures, compiled from reports released by the European Commission and United Nations, also show:

• The UK has the second highest overall crime rate in the EU.
• It has a higher homicide rate than most of our western European neighbours, including France, Germany, Italy and Spain.
• The UK has the fifth highest robbery rate in the EU.
• It has the fourth highest burglary rate and the highest absolute number of burglaries in the EU, with double the number of offences than recorded in Germany and France.

But it is the naming of Britain as the most violent country in the EU that is most shocking. The analysis is based on the number of crimes per 100,000 residents.

In the UK, there are 2,034 offences per 100,000 people, way ahead of second-placed Austria with a rate of 1,677.

The U.S. has a violence rate of 466 crimes per 100,000 residents......

Britain the most violent country in Europe and even worse than South Africa and U.S.

Far less likely to be murdered or shot in the UK.

The non-lethal violence is primarily right wingers beating up on each other.

And you obviously don't realize that before they banned their guns the british gun crime rate was well below the United States...and that violent crime increased in Britain after the gun confiscation......and Britain is now 2 times more violent than the United States....

And obviously, their criminals can get guns.... a 19 year old can easily get a glock with 90 rounds of ammo....in Britain...even with it's extreme gun control......

Again...answer these....

What stopped the guy from going to a school?

What stopped the guy from going to a theater?

The nuts and criminals have just as much access to guns as they do in the states, since they don't care about gun laws.....they just don't do them as often.

Nope...that is your argument....and they just didn't enact gun control...they confiscated and banned all handguns and put severe limits on long guns......so no...gun control does not work....you can't lie about it like that....

Our gun control laws have reduced gun murder rates too....and we have 12.8 million people carrying guns for self defense..

As British gun crime increases...what will you blame it on..since they already confisctated guns....
