Ammosexuals like Greene love to harp on about knife crime in the UK, but the American knife crime homicide rate is about 50% higher than the British knife crime homicide rate.
The question isn't, to my mind, comparative knife crime homicide rates but what the UK rates of homicide, suicide, and accidental death by shooting would look like without tight restrictions on the use of firearms.

I dare say we'd also need far more armed police officers, and would see far more suspects killed by them, than at present.

A shooting today in Highland Park, an affluent suburb about 25 miles north of Chicago. Shortly after 10 AM, a man on the roof of a store or restaurant in the downtown area opened fire with a rifle on the town's July 4th parade, killing at least 6 and wounding at least 24 people. Police have found the rifle but they're still looking for the gunman.

Can confirm that Kennesaw doesn't enforce it at all - because we lived there for years and never had a gun.

Last I saw, suspect is a white male, appx 19 years old, slim built with black hair. Want to bet its someone who wants to emulate Rittenhouse?

He appears to be a nutcase who had a ton of red flags. One of his videos had him dropping bullets in a classroom with manic laughter in the background. MAGAworld is attempting to portray him as a leftist. Nope. Trumper, all the way. Pics of him draped in a Trump flag, at a rally, etc... They are also using Chicago as if it happened there, prob to associate it with Chicago crime. Highland Park is an extremely well-to-do area 25 miles north of Chicago. The shooter lives in Highland Park. His father ran for mayor in 2019 and got beaten badly, 72-26. The whole "Awake" the rapper thing is supposed to refer to "Awake, not woke".

Of -course- they are. And sad to be right, but yeah, called it.

This lower primate is just throwing his own turds to get attention. I took a look at some of the replies, and it is a bit disappointing that nobody stopped to point out that the north american colonialists in 1776 were desperate for help from France and took drastic steps to convince the French that it was in their interest to support the American Revolution. They invited French Diplomats and sent envoys to France (most notably Benjamin Franklin). The material and direct military aid sent by the French were critical to the success of the revolution, and the French played an important role to shepherd the Treaty of Paris as well as help the new country. The basic premise of his argument is factually wrong, and he cannot convey basic facts about the time period in question while he is also claims that the framers intents are important to understanding how to interpret the constitution. Typical double speak to feed his grossly and purposefully ignorant base.

Gee, maybe if there was some way to deal with all these "troubled young men" having easy access to guns.

What I just can't fathom is what people think when they see these dipshits posting the appalling stuff they seem to always post on Facebook et. al.

If I saw something like that, I just can't imagine thinking something like, "Gosh, that guy's quite a character, ho ho ho!" Yet, here we are.
