The USA has a stupid gun law, whilst the UK doesn't..
I thought that was easily inferable but I guess you're not all too smart, what was your point which was backed up again?

Ponders if I have already replied to this or not--

Japan, Finland or Tenerifé.

Mainly Japan cos it's my lifelong dream.

Just because we ban guns, doesn't mean they aren't used. Also we have knives and other sharp objects. It's not the guns, it's the shooter.

(Before someone mentions us murder rates) one of the main reasons the USA has more deaths is because its a whole lot larger than the uk, can't really compare unless you cut a section of a similar size imo

I don't really perceive the UK as a safe place sometimes, let alone the US but hey.

what a ridiculous thing to say. the US has a MUCH higher murder rate than all of Europe... and Europe is much bigger. the fact is you're more likely to be murdered in the US than in any other country.

you said that one could not make a fair comparison between the US and the the UK because the US is 'bigger'......... that is total BS, as shown by the fact Europe (which is a lot bigger than the US) has a much lower murder and/or gun rate than the US.

I think what you're trying to say is that you're more likely to get murdered in the US than in any other developed country.
And yeah, on average 30 people a day in the US are killed by guns. And that's ONLY by guns.

Again, I said the uk. The uk, not Europe. There is a conversation about the uk and the USA and a lot of people bring up comparisons between each. How is me saying that the uk is smaller than the whole of the USA 'bs'. You need to arm yourself with an atlas sir.
