2nd Amendment

[Slick Rick]

The United Kingdom has one of the lowest rates of gun homicides in the world with 0.07 recorded intentional homicides committed with a firearm per 100,000 inhabitants in 2009 compared to the United States' 3.0 (over 40 times higher) and to Germany's 0.21 (3 times higher).

Yep. Definitely sounds like mass genocide to me. Go back to your little NRA club with the rest of the Mentally-Unstable Tea-Party members.

Well OBVIOUSLY mass genocide isn't happening, yet, it could be a figure of speech or an exaggeration for all we know.

Here's another fun fact about the UK, since you bring up it's gun deaths. How about the fact that it has the highest overall (including VIOLENT and deadly crimes) crime rate in ALL OF EUROPE, and more so than the USA as well. Keep in mind, gun violence/deaths does not = overall crime, I'm talking ALL crime in general.

Switzerland. Only country in Europe where guns are
not totally outlawed, lowest crime-rate in all of Europe.

So yeah, I could care less how well a gun-free country is doing when it comes to overall crime, because I know it's gonna be total shit when compared to states like Texas, Colorado etc. Why? Because those places aren't gun free states, and people are able to protect themselves there.

Now if you were to compare Illinois, Michigan, New York, (ya know, good ol' gun free states which just so happen to have crime rates skyrocket since their statewide weapon bans; Chicago being the most dangerous city to live in in 2012, look up the statistics, and please take note guns are banned in Chicago) to the UK, then yes, the UK does have less crime in that scenario.

Edit:I'm not saying there aren't places in Europe with a lower crime rate than the US, I know there are.
