How well did strict gun laws work in keeping automatic weapons out of the hands of the IRA?
What does that have to do with anything?!
If that is supposed to be an arguement against gun control, then the US should legalise concaine and heroine because laws against that are not doing much.

Why is the murder rate in the British Virgin Islands four times as high as in the USA?
Sorry.... let me get this straight.
Are you taking an off-shore territory with a population of 23,000, to the mainland UK's 59 million, as a basis for your arguement?

That is like me taking statistics for the Aleutians on a given subject and judging the whole US by them...


Really. Be honest. What are you hoping to prove by trying to discredit UK stats one way or another?

I'd like to hear that in plain language, because I am struggling to see what UK crime rates have got to do with America.
