murder rate FOUR times lowerit makes the murder rate go down a lot!!Funny that crazies always point to gun control laws.If only the whole country had strong NYC gun control.
New York City Had Its First Weekend Without A Shooting In 25 Years
"A city of 8.6 million people — not a single shooting for three days," Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Monday, according to CNN. "Let's thank the NYPD for what they've achieved."
We have very strict muder laws has that curbed murder? We have very strict fraud, kidnapping, stealing laws has any of that stopped? We have laws against illegal drugs, even a war on drugs, how many drugs are now unavailable?
Nothing changes because of laws. Criminals are till going to do what they think they can do. Sweden has very strict gun laws yet they are fighting the import by criminals of fully automatic weapons and hand grenades.
Great Britain has always had very stringent gun laws, yet people are still shot and London has now been forced to ban knives in public.
Detroit has strong anti gun laws. How well has that worked out? But for the first time New York City has a few days without a shooting and some one calls for gun bans as if the laws that have been on the books for years suddenly created a gun free utopia.
France, Germany, England murder rate many times lower
you DON'T want the murder rate to go down??
Great Britain murder rate FOUR times lower than the US
very stupid to bring up GB or London as a PRO-gun argument--
the murder rate does not indicate the effectiveness of gun control...Britain had a 42% increase in Gun Crime last year in London......and a 23% increase across England and Wales..... that means that criminals in Britain can get illegal guns....and they are using them...
They are not murdering their victims...why is it so hard for you guys to understand that dynamic?
They have illegal guns.
They use illegal guns for crime.
They do not commit murder as often....yet. That is already changing.
---how do you explain a very diverse city--with a much higher density with over 8 million people--have 300 murders vs a city with 320,000 and 200 murders?????????
..if not gun control --then what??
..NYC has a shitload more of nuts/crazies/etc
