Gun crime rising in Britain
It's up by around 50%.
Of course, there's only one solution: "There have been widespread calls for tighter gun controls in Britain ..."
The sidebar shows street prices for illegal guns. Heck, they're a lot lower than the prices for legal ones here! Pump shotguns about $30 US, subguns for about $600, Lugers and P38s for around $200. The imaginative ones have apparently found how to convert an air pistol into a functioning .22 revolver.

"Where have all the handguns gone,
Wrong laws passing,
Where have all the handguns gone,
Long time ago,
Where have all the handguns gone,
Gone to Gangstas, every one....
When will they ever learn....,
When will they eh-ver learn."
(no apologies to Peter Paul and Mary...)
