You fellow Americans should not allow the leftists to take your guns, you won't be better of afterwards, UK and Germany once in history had liberal gun laws, things did not get better since then.
Hah. These leftist will never take our guns here. They can try over and over. They will ultimately lose. We live in Texas. A very gun friendly state. I am amused when I run into brits here . They are so fascinated with guns. I never really thought about it , but I guess a lot of people take the right for granted. I have a gun at my office, my house, and theres one in my car . All legally. Violent crimes are low and the only major problem is petty theft from people leaving their cars . My wife is eastern european (lithuanian) .... When we go out there. Her grandpa shows us all their guns.. I guess eastern europe is not disarmed....

It depends on the country, as a heritage of communist oppression some countries have strict gun laws, even stricter than Western Europe, especially the Baltic countries as far is I know. Czech Republic, Serbia and Bosnia have liberal gun laws; countries like Poland or Hungary seem to be average. UK is extreme, in Germany you can own guns, even AR 15s and the like, however you have to invest considerable time and money and strip yourself to the authorities. Czech Republic is the only country in Europe I know that allows common citizens to carry guns, though with individual permission needed.
Man what is going on Europe? Get your act together, otherwise you truly won't be able to brag about being better than America. Seriously how does this happen?
I would assume so pbpbcat however when I took Stats 101 many years ago I was not an A student in the class. My old college professor always told us that STATS could be used to support any argument. Hence I do not trust/understand them.
One thing to remember about NYC and London is that both cities have very STRICT gun laws. So although NYC is in the United States the laws of NYC covering gun ownership are probably more comparable to London than a similar city in a state with lenient gun laws like say Texas.
