Daniel Aronstein, The Astute Blogger, has been collecting crime stroy headlines from the BBC, and notices a wave of knofe—related crime, following the imposition of draconian gun control laws. However, gun—related crimes are also up in the U.K., so it would appear (once again) that gun control laws increase crime.

When will the world wake up to this obvious truth? Several American states have loosened their concealed—carry laws, with excellent results in terms of crime control and violence prevention.
