Gordon,

They have no guns in England, and a much lower crime rate.

I have shown statistics, now please do the same for your Taiwan claims.

Gordon re:"In South Africa, guns are strictly controlled, yet their murder rate is 10 times that of the US."

Here's a reference that says S.A.'s murder rate is 6.6/100K vs. the USA's 8.2/100K.

The link below however gives S.A.'s rate as between 56-69 /100K.....so who ya gonna believe?
