The headline tells the story--London gun crime rises as shootings nearly double.
It must be that someone somewhere needs to have their gun show loophole closed, have one gun a month law passed, or "assault weapons" banned.
Oh yeah. I forgot. They are way past that point with a complete ban on nearly all guns and people increasingly use guns in the commission of violent crimes.
And it's not just a little bit either:
...[T]he number of actual shootings has almost doubled from 123 to 236 in the last six months compared with the same period last year, a rise of 91.8%. Serious firearms offences have risen by 47% across the capital.
So what's the reason they want to ban the guns in our country? What do they think the benefit will be? We know it and they know it. It's not about making people safer. They have some other motivation because the data tells everyone that gun bans do not make people safer.
So what is the real reason for wanting to restrict firearm ownership? After failing to get an answer to Just One Question that should be follow up when they still insist on "common sense" regulation. Either that or just tell the bigots Μολὼν λαβέ.
