Car safety's definitely an issue too. For many years governments have basically blocked research into making cars safer for pedestrians. I'm hoping that's going to change, since it appears that terrorists are finally waking up to the possibilities. On the other hand, we recently had a really ugly terrorist incident at London Bridge, which is somewhere I go most days. The good news is the terrorists only had knives. People died, including police officers, but the death toll would have been much worse if they'd even had small caliber handguns.
Meanwhile, in other news, a gunman walked into a nursery in Liverpool today. Luckily no-one was hurt: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/sep/27/police-hunt-man-seen-carrying-gun-at-liverpool-nursery-wavertree https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/sep/27/police-hunt-...
