You didn't really grasp the article did you? The point is that guns save
more lives, stop more crimes than is reported.

Murderers, robbers, rapists and other assorted criminals are going to acquire
guns, if not they will use a knife, baseball bat, lead pipe -- whatever they
can find to use as a weapon. If I have a gun, then I am at least equally if
not better armed than the criminal.
Criminals in the UK do not use guns?

machinations... only from other little people with guns...>>
Guns in the hands of citizens is the reason why we are not part of the
British empire. Should the government here overstep their bounds an armed
citizenry has options that an unarmed citizenry does not have. If the
citizens of Germany in the thirties did have the right to keep and bear arms
there might not have been a World War 2.
<< has america replaced the cold war's arms race with an internal one? might
be
a good thing for the rest of the world actually. >>
The government is not promoting an arms race among citizens. The government
is promoting disarmament of citizens so only the criminals and government
agencies will be armed -- that is criminal.
