Gun Control - Good, Bad, or Ugly?

[JimC]

What the fuck? I arrived at no sort of statistic whatsoever! I merely noted the ability of guns to kill more people, and at greater range, than knives. Nothing other than that, which is not a statistic, simply a valid point of difference between 2 weapons. Whether it is a useful fact in the context of debate about gun control others can judge...

This is the post of mine which got your knickers in a twist...

Knife crime is a serious issue, and is certainly a problem in my home town. However, handguns can kill more people, more quickly, at greater range; viz, Arizona recently...

Absolutely dripping with statistics, innit...

For reference, when you go out of your way to defend idiotic statistics, then try and claim you don't own them because someone else made the original post, I don't believe you. Lets pin it down: was the comparison in question fucking idiotic, or do you want to defend it?

Which comparison are you wittering on about?
