Hi Tracy

we certainly have more gun crime than before Dunblane but the implication that banning handguns contributed is nonsense.

Some people seem to think that having guns deters gun crime. Is the US an example of that deterrence ? Would a criminal think "hey I won't steal from that house or mug that person because they might have a gun" I would have thought they are more likely to think "hey they might have a gun I'll take mine just in case and if they have I'll shoot them."
