I thought that Great Britain had strict gun control. Apparently, I was
misinformed.
Sadly, some of the criminals round here don't always obey the law.
Even so (http://www.crimeinfo.org.uk/):
€ Pro rata, the USA has 34 times the number of homicides involving
firearms as England and Wales.
€ Switzerland and Canada have three times the number of shooting
deaths as the rate in the uk.
I just happen to live in the worst street in Britain. Although nearly
all my neighbours are very good people, many of them come from a
country where gun crime and drug dealing are rampant, and the very few
relatives they have who are gun-wielding criminals tend to gravitate to
this neck of the woods.

So you're saying you have a lot of Texans living on your street...
