Sure, we have gun control in the UK because of the Dunblane massacre but how many mass shootings occurred prior to that event? The answer is one, the Hungerford massacre which lead to the Firearms Act of 1988.
How many mass shootings occurred post-gun control/Dunblane? The answer is one, the Cumbria shootings in 2010.
The UK also has a lot of unreported crime and a lot of gun crime/knife crime despite these restrictions and many terrorist attacks which may have been stopped by law-abiding citizens with guns (London Bridge Attacks in 2019 and 2017)
Has disarming most of the UK helped with much or are we at the same stage we were before gun control?
Perhaps Americans can decide for themselves their own gun control and debate in this thread rather than British people that don't understand US law and what is going on there. For example, many states have outlawed certain weapons, restricted open carry and other forms of gun control. Most, if not all, have not worked as criminals just ignore the legislation.
