Responding to your stats on England gun control:
Listen you bozo, the reason for the whole flaming revolutionary war was
to kick out the redcoats, who kept putting restrictions on the People.
One of those restrictions was the right to have your own personal arsenal.
English law prohibiting the rank and file from owning hand guns dates
back to when England was a colonial power, and they didn't like the
idea of the colonists pointing guns at the bureaucrats.
So using their murder stats to back up an argument to ban handguns is
pretty dumb.
