As I outlined in some detail in another thread, looking at UK crime figures as a means of justifying actions, one way or the other, in the US is pointless for anything other than scoring PR points.
And even those don't stand up to much scrutiny.
So... rather than trying to discredit such unproductive statistics or the conclusions drawn from them, why does the pro-gun movement instead not try to dissuade such comparison in the first place.
That would be far more effective at taking the wind out of anti-gun sails...
