Britain was going to ban samurai swords because of increase sword attacks after their gun ban. (http://www.news24.com/News24/World/News/0,,2-10-1462_2237699,00.html http://www.news24.com/News24/World/News/0,,2-10-1462_2237699...)
When will governments realize that people (not guns) kill people.
Would the same thing have happened if the hoodlums knew that their victims could have legally been concealing a firearm? Maybe, maybe not, but we'll never know because it was one protection that the two Indian men were not afforded.

- alrexx 17y agoThis is the worst argument I've ever heard. The notion that robbery only happens because the victims aren’t carrying guns is just rubbish. If the victims carry guns the assailants will carry bigger guns, or possibly escalate the situation in other ways. The removal of guns is not going to stop crime and everybody knows this, it is to help reduce the fatality rate. Your argument is hardly relevant to the article I suggest you go on your pro-gun tirade where guns are the issue.
- evgen 17y ago> When will governments realize that people (not guns) kill people. I hate to be suckered into this sort of useless debate, but you should at least bit a little honest here. Guns don't kill people, people _with guns_ kill people...
