British Gun Control
Here is an excellent news report on the consequences of hand gun bans in Great Brittan.
Shockingly, banning hand guns has not brought down crime, in fact, it seems to have increased it.
Pay particular attention to the unbelievable injustice of the home owner that was jailed protecting his home when he shot and killed one of two burglars that had broken in. What kind of incentive structure do we have where an otherwise law abiding citizen is jailed longer for protecting his home than the burglars that broke in.

Silly Brits, don’t they know choosing safety over freedom never works?

This if full of emotional appeals, twisting of facts, half-truths, and hyperbole.
For example - yes, it is true that Brit police are more heavily armed today than in the old days. They omit the fact, however, that the same is also true of police forces in the US, suggesting it is not a consequence of gun bans.

Now you know what it’s like to view well produced news segments that are clearly biased towards a perspective.
Think of all of the MSM segments that report from the left.
