    Are you suggesting that the decrease in gun crime is commensurate with an increase in knife crime?

    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...s-fast-as-muggers-target-gadgets-6292255.html

    But even if we do concede that as gun injury is reduced so knife injury is increased there is one major difference - tissue damage. Unless the weapon is a low calibre, low power gun the tissue damage caused by gunshot is far far far more damaging than that caused by knife wound

    There is no such thing as a "low calibre' gun. Perhaps you mean something, but, as usual here, you dont know what you are talking about.

    There was an incident in mexico in which a single man with a bowie knife killed four police armed with AK 47s

    The extent of tissue damage with a blade vs a bullet depends on so many variables that comparison is senseless. What causes more damage, a car or a bullet?

    Which is better, apples or oranges?

    Does bower have the capacity to ever admit to getting anything wrong?

    let us see.

    Bower, do you admit that there is no such thing as a "low calibre gun"?

    He killed everyone at each attack. There was no one left to kill.

    You will just with the wrong part of the internet.

    IOW you cannot concede that you are wrong, even in so small and simple a matter.

    Now, what does that tell us?

    It tells us that your mindset is too rigid to accept different perspectives...

    I will assume for the moment you are going for irony here..

    But if not prease exprain how I'm displaying a 'rigid mindset" or that it is a "different perspective' to use a nonsensical term, "low caliber gun"?

    There is no such thing as a "low-calibre" gun.

    If i started talking about a "low calibre" motorcycle, would it be just "rigid mindset"
    if someone said there's no such thing?

    Sorry but other countries also have a drug culture and disenfranchise communities black or otherwise and THEY do not have the homicide rate, and especially the firearm homicide rate that the USA has

    And don't even THINK about demanding statistics for that until you have provided some of your own - especially proving that it IS all "drugs and blacks" (sheesh! talk about racist!)

    Proof??? Now come on - you have been demanding proof from me - your turn now!! Prove that the disparity is explained in this manner because you cannot have me believe that EVERY dead body in the USA is counted as a murder.

    A dead girl found in the woods with stab wounds and a rope around her neck is a murder victim.

    Of course not every dead body is counted as a murder.

    HOWEVER we do see that the anti-gun stats people cite the total number of casualties from guns together. "Horrors! X people were killed by guns!"

    They dont print the break down as to how many were justifiable and how many were suicides that would, of course, have also worked if they'd used a different method.
