>>671608yeah, instead you have more people getting robbed at knife-point and stabbed. but then, some folks in the UK seem to have a handle on that too- since they're trying to get all large kitchen knives banned too. Also, you might wanna take a look at US crime statistics- more violent crime happens every year in places with strict firearms controls, and the places with the lowest crime rates? You guessed it euro-fag, places where gun ownership and concealed carry are allowed. An intellegent, armed populace is safer than a bunch of mindless socialist sheep any day of the week.
