Australian murder rate. Guns banned n 1996. Murder rate barely wavered:
Spartan, before I take the time to respond to your UK and Australia charts, you lived in the UK (I think) so you are in a unique position to know, are you saying that the murder rate in the UK and in Australia would've been the same over the time frame of the charts WITHOUT the gun laws in those two countries? I know you are posting the charts to say that the gun laws did not change the murder rate, but I suspect you only mean that in the sense that the rate did not go down (in your view)? Is that correct, do you think the murder rate in those two countries stay the same with no gun restrictions in place?Thanks
Pretty much. At least not significantly, and any rise and/or fall has been in conjunction with general trends in the overall crime rate.
Of course he is going to walk, it's the gun's fault. Swift and harsh justice for the gun
the gun was the proximate cause of the deathIf that ^^^ statement by me was not true, this thread ends pages ago with a simple honest counter,
An act from which an injury results as a natural, direct, uninterrupted consequence and without which the injury would not have occurred. http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/proximate+cause why is this thread still going on?
English is your second second language?
