Violent crime including murders are actually happening less and less every year. The rate has been dropping off since the early 90's. It is weird for there to be a shift to blunt instruments.Report/DB wrote:
Data still shows that the amount of people killed by hammers, clubs and other blunt instruments still continues to rise each year.

I think he was making a point. Some people have been doing just about the same to defend gun rights on here. Bring up instances where particularly extreme people have said particularly extreme things and painting the entire other side of the argument as the same.Cybargs wrote:

Which still doesn't invalidate my point of this entire idiotic crusade of confiscation reinvigorated by exploiting a tragedy through means of mass media disinformation. Oh, that stat equates to roughly 3 three days worth of knife attacks in England. Don't let your dumbassery get in the way of your fail logic.Jaekus wrote:

Maybe in the 90s. But there is fuck all knife crime here.Only last week a fatal stabbing was reported from the Blackberry BBM party in London, yet data compiled by the Guardian shows that the highest rate of severe knife related crime recorded in the capital in the 2010-2011 financial year is less than 0.5% of total crime for each area.
The highest number of murder knife victims (or otherwise where the weapon used was a "sharp instrument"), for 2010 and 2011 calendar years, was only six - in just two London boroughs.
As the chart below shows, in most London authorities the numbers of such deaths were on average between two and four. That being said, the figures for Southwark, where the stabbing took place just after a Jessie J concert, spiked from no homicide victims of knife crime in 2010 to six in 2011.

also he has an absolutely massive audience, which suggests that many people find him credible, if not at least sane.Jaekus wrote:

Alex Jones is a kooky fucker. He's like that angry anti-islam guy from the UK whos' name escapes me right now. Not credible, not sane.aynrandroolz wrote:
