Actually no, the US also leads the way on knife crimes over the UK and every other developed country. Look it up. It is just gun murders in the US dominate the headlines you miss out on all the stabbings....

Not true on a per capita basis UK crime is worse than US in 2019 Pre pandemic a person was 5 times more likely to be assaulted or the Victim of robbery in London then in the US.
That gap has probably closed some since all the peaceful riots and defund the police BS. UK cities are still more violent then those in the US on a per capita basis. Sweeden once a peaceful Socialist paradise, with strict gun control, has the highest rape per capita in the world 20 times greater than in the US.

That's just not true, London is way behind most major US cities in homicides and overall crime statistics.

Good thing Sweeden has such strict gun control

Why shootings are on the increase in Sweden’s suburbs

The headlines about serious youth violence and gang crime bring to mind cities such as London, New York and Sao Paulo.

But, few would think of or know that Stockholm, Sweden, has become one of the worst places in Europe for Gun violence.

Yes, it is good that Sweden has strict gun control, they have not had a mass shooting at a school. It is true gun murders have increased in the last 20 years but that is from a very low base. Still way below gun murders in the US even now, they can't even hold a candle to you guys.

Not sure what rape has got to do with guns and dead kids at schools.

Yes that was 2018 and it was such a shock to people it became newsworthy. However it was just a blip and New York and other major cities took their rightly place as more dangerous and more murders. F - Please try again

I can't believe you're bringing up facts at a time like this

There have actually been no recorded murders with assault weapons.

NFA regulated arms are never used in crime.
