Abolishing guns reduces crime??

Article in the Sun about the number of knife crimes in England.

The British Crime Survey (BCS) - released today - showed nearly 130,000 offences involving knives took place last year – and the total does even not include crimes involving under-16s.

It means that someone was wounded or threatened with a knife, on average, once every FOUR minutes.

Well that is just wrong, give them guns. It doesn't take as much energy. TIC!

LOL! Yeah we can't allow guns to be outlawed as it would be profiling and bias toward out of shape people.

Whatever you do, for God's sake don't take their knives, they would starve. There's not a complete set of teeth in all of London.

Apparently, having guns doesn't necessarily do a whole lot about crime either. Texas has the highest incarceration rate of any state in the Union. You'd think with all them guns handy that criminals would simply steer clear of that State. lol

Those who oppose gun rights are wackos.

But on a spiritual level...what is the "Christian" position when it comes to bearing arms? Should the saints of God pack heat?
