What's interesting in the US, the same politicians trying to make things "safer" by limiting the ability of law abiding citizens to carry a firearm are the same which make it easier for repeat criminals to go back out on the streets.
There was a homeless guy in China Town (NYC) with multiple arrests/convictions who followed a woman back to her apartment and
stabbed her to death recently - as an example.
Additionally, there have been a ton of reports of people getting smashed in the head with hammers or pushed on the tracks in the NYC subway system.
Of course, you have a better chance of winning the lotto than getting a firearm permit in NYC. A carry permit is impossible to obtain.
Keep in mind though, the UK is why we have a second amendment (the right to keep and bear arms). Our founding fathers wanted to make sure we had the ability to fight back against a tyrannical government
