Also note that the overall crime in the United States is a fourth of the overall crime in the United Kingdom. America lets everyone buy any kind of weapon save for automatics or military-grade explosives/weapons, and even those can be purchased illegally, or can be kept if you had it before the light gun control laws came into effect (my grandfather has a fully automatic and legal AR-15, because he had it before they were restricted).

United Kingdom lets NO ONE carry weapons, even officers. They have four times the crime as America.
