Now here’s a guy who has his head screwed on right. Crime rate isn’t about guns, its about poverty. But when you have a population and politicians that don’t want to do any investigation beyond “the crime was committed with a gun, therefore we should ban guns” you end up with crime stats like those in England and Wales. And personally, I like it better here, where I’m 3.5 times less likely to be raped or mugged or the victim of some other violent crime.
