[QUOTE="WreckinGT, post: 401369, member: 147"] You should probably point out that a violent crime in the UK isn't defined the same way a violent crime in the US is. Even simple battery and minor sexual offenses are considered a violent crime by the British definition. In the US it is pretty much just forcible rape, murder, robbery, and assault. If you can give a more accurate comparison on all of the types of crimes and proof that gun legislation is the cause of any increase in those numbers then I will answer the question. Or you could just look at homicide rates which are clearly defined everywhere. That probably won't help your argument though. Also, I agree that the massive gun problems we have in the US are a public health issue which is why I think it is sad that the CDC is prohibited from studying it as a public health issue. Good luck in ever changing that though. [/QUOTE]
