How many schools have been shot up and children murdered in the US compared to every other nation?
Dunblane … was that 30 years ago? Any others in the UK?

Saw a MAGA women saying you couldn’t compare Kirk’s shooting to school shootings because the former was ‘a tragedy’ because he had family. Not sure what she imagined dead children had.
Dunblane was tragic because Andy Murray survived

Clearly you're just another sickening anti semitic leftie loon and just as moronic as the right wing conspiracy theorists loons 
You're a moron. Charlie Kirk was calling out Jews hence the suspected Mossad elimination.

I'm no anti-semite. I hate all religions.
Least you're honest using the word "hate" as youre clearly full of it unlike Kirk
I'm an atheist and don't hate all religions,but Islam comes very close,Buddhists and Sikhs have my respect 
You are clearly anti semitic

The gun that killed Kirk was a hunting rifle. The same ones we allow here.

Good luck getting those banned.

Hmm, that's a good point. The semi automatic nutty one's should definitely be off the Walmart shelves out there though, for starters at least.

Gun deaths have deceased in the USA over time. 

Also, most gun deaths are suicides.

I see the massive weirdo Stephen King has had to apologise for saying Kirk advocated stoning gays to deaths.  It appears that he made it up.

It was his dad that turned him in.

I reckon he might be a good judge of someone on screen who might be his son.

Especially as he's a 27-year veteran of the Sheriff's Department.

Haha, so some white American PATSY has turned himself in. How convenient.

Meanwhile what happened to that plane that was allowed to depart shortly after? The Mossad operatives will be long back in Israel now...

One Billy, I agree that taking and holding on to Israeli hostages has been a large contributor to the excessive Palestinian death toll. If you and I were to debate the issue we would do so armed with numerous facts that were not mentioned in the Spiked article you posted up.

Just imagine what your response would be if someone posted up a different point of view which highlighted the kill rate and infrastructure devastation caused b the IDF without mentioning the original Hamas incursion, killing over a thousand Jews combined with hostage taking, that started this conflagration.

USA
0.00005 gun deaths per person

UK
0.0000007 gun deaths per person

I read something about the number of unhinged nutters on the streets of the USA due to all kinds of factors but mostly not removing them like they might have in the past. Anyway it was in the millions. The argument was that the police and the authorities do little about this and so people resort to carrying a hidden gun as a last resort. In other words they are taking responsibility for their own safety as the authorities aren't. 

This all seems completely alien to us but as the police and authorities in the UK seem to be travelling down a similar path I think people would think more of how they would protect themselves when they are left on their own to do so.

England and Wales approach. Strict licencing of firearms, whole classes of gun ownership (pistols, assault weapons) banned. 22 gunshot murders in the year to March 2024 (most recent year available).

USA approach. Virtual unfettered access to firearms, firearms homicides in 2023, just under 18,000.

Wonder, which approach works best?
