		This is how we take care of business in the UK.
A burglar brandishing a knife as he entered a 72 year old pensioners home got a shock.  The occupant Frank Corti a retired Royal Engineer and boxer punched the intruder Gregory McCalium, twice in the face giving him a black eye and a bust lip.
Mr Corti then restrained McCalium until police arrived.
Stand your ground? Nah! Put em up punk! Put em up!

We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.

He's saying people that resort to shooting someone versus just giving them a smack down are pussies.

Because he stood his ground using his fists not a 9mm pistol.
Pity George Zimmerman couldn't have done the same he obviously doesn't have as much lead in his pencil as a 72 year old.

		My other half is my age and medically disabled. I don't think she could punch as hard as Z did. I taught her breath and trigger control and we have a couple personal friends that are lawyers.
Might work well for a 70 odd yr old ex boxer, rest of the population, not so much

We use our dukes you use your guns I know which is the right way to conduct yourself as a human being.  Many grannies have used their walking sticks to fend of attackers in the UK why? Because their attackers almost certainly are NOT packing a gun because of our gun laws. Apart from the niggers in the innercity nobody including the crims carry guns around here you are culturally blind on the subject.
550 homicides a year compared to over 120000 homcides a year a  rate 22 times higher than a country with a population only five times bigger.
A statistic no one at Mock will ever try and explain or answer because they can't can you?

		Instead of focusing on gun crimes I believe that crime in general should be studied. Whether its a gun or a pogo stick. Take a look at the crime rates in various countries and you will see that the United States is a nicer place than England when comparing all crime robbery, rape, assault etc.
Violent crime stats
Blaming the gun is just parroting the actions of lemmings.
From your standpoint taking away guns in America would turn it into a utopia and 22X more peaceful than England.
