First they came for our guns. Then they came for our sharp, pointy objects. Next person suffocated the'll come for our pillows. And, oh yeah, our cars (CO2, ya know). Oh, and our safes in upper floors. Dang, it's becoming harder and harder to off someone in today's world.

The minute they banned guns, the murder rate in England went to zero.

The minute they ban knives, the murder rate in England will go to zero, again.

Your either being sarcastic and forgot the tag, or you truly have no idea what your talking about.

Aside from murder by firearms, the rate of crimes committed with a firearm in England skyrocketed after the gun ban. And England is a freaking ISLAND!

Wrong metrics. The criteria is "does it save one child?" And if we have to kill 100 children to save one child, by golly, that's what we're going to do.
