Here's another item for anyone who imagines gun laws reduce violent crime. England's Telegraph newspaper reports on the recent rapid increase in gun violence:
Quote:
"...handgun crime has soared past levels last seen before the Dunblane massacre of 1996 and the ban on the weapons that followed.

"It was hoped that the measure would reduce the number of handguns available to criminals. According to internal Home Office statistics, however, handgun crime is now at its highest since 1993."
