You know, this would be so much easier if they just outlawed murder.

“Deadly shootings are rare in Britain, where gun ownership is tightly restricted. In recent years, there have been fewer than 100 gun murders annually across the country.”

But murders and other violent crime are way up.

This just isn’t possible. Guns are illegal in England.

When will these people stop lying?

They have a photo of a White guy in the article.

But, I remain dubious.

"I can't believe he would do that — he was a quiet little fellow."

You just knew there would be that statement.

Look at what they say. The words are not convincing.

AP – This is a undated handout photo issued by Cumbria Police on Wednesday June 2, 2010 of Derrick Bird, 52, …

They say it is an undated handout photo, but they do not actually say that this is the guy who did it?

I could hand out a photo of Boy George, does that mean he did this?

This couldn’t have happened, guns are illegal in the UK.

Don’t they have proper gun control?

Don’t they regulate taxis properly in England?

What could government do to prevent people from acting on evil impulses?

I think I speak for the majority of FReepers when I say if it would just save one life, I’d be willing to have the government hook me up to a machine where I’m fed through tubes and my brain is connected to a virtual reality world that I “live” in so no real people could ever possibly get hurt.

But, but a total ban on guns (like they have in England) leads to a very safe country and no gun violence. /sarc

A taxi driver drove his vehicle on a shooting spree across a tranquil stretch of northwest England on Wednesday, methodically killing 12 people and wounding 25 others before turning the gun on himself, officials said.

Had he tried the same stunt in Texas, Arizona, or East LA, the casualties would likely have been considerably fewer, and he would not have needed to turn the gun on himself.

At least none of these people tried to defend themselves against this murderer or they would have been arrested. England is bizarro world now a days.
