@waltercool The irony here is that they recognize the issue with their knife crime and their response, rather than concluding that outlawing guns dont work, was just to make super strict knife laws too. Now people get arrested for having screwdrivers under their knife laws they are so strict.
@waltercool It doesnt solve the problem if your country has low crime statistics either.. because then there is no problem to solve.
In short, banning guns never solves problems.
@freemo That’s correct. If your country has severe crime statistics, banning guns doesn’t resolve the problem by magic.
Violent people will always find other ways to achieve the same goals. Like acid… or knifes/screwdrivers as you mentioned.
At my country people use handmade machetes for example, mostly for violent acts, but some others to defend themselves. Guns are ridiculously restricted
