    We just need to look at the UK! Even police doesn't carry guns and attacks with fire weapons are rare to none. Sure we still get attacked by vans and knives, but now imagine the dead toll if on top of that anyone could get their hands on automatic rifles!

    And like I always say, I would rather take my chances running from a van or a guy with a knife than with an automatic rifle! Any day!

    I don't mind if people support Trump's policies. That is democracy.

    What I object to is the way he lies and changes his mind. Anyone who thinks that is any way to go about democracy is mad. And democracy is under threat.

    Of course no civilian needs one. I'm not arguing that.

    I'm pointing out that if the recent shootings had been carried out by non-whites, or left wingers, Trump would have been all over it - travel bans, clamp downs, etc.
    Instead he chooses to repeat the Fox News claim that the guy was mentally ill. Amazing that when it's a a non-white, etc, they are never referred to as mentally ill.

    Maybe the only mentally ill people are those who support Trump.

    Either the US needs to fix its healthcare system to deal with all the mentally ill male Trump supporters with automatic rifles, or it needs to fix the ease with which male Trump supporters civilians can get automatic rifles.

    In the wake of five attacks in less than 24 hours in London, the US president branded the Mayor of London a ‘national disgrace’ and a ‘disaster’ on Twitter. He said London needs a new mayor ‘ASAP’ as he retweeted a post from right wing commentator Katie Hopkins, which referred to the capital as ‘Khan’s Londonistan’ and ‘Stab-City’. But if the president looked a bit closer to home, he might realise there are more than 50 US cities with a higher murder rate than London. There were 132 murders in London last year, leaving the capital with a homicide rate of 1.5 per 100,000 residents. When you compare this with Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans and St Louis, London starts looking a whole lot safer. Donald Trump should take a long hard look at violence in his own country (Picture: AFP/Getty) In 2017, 205 people were murdered in St Louis, Missouri, which has a population of just 318,000. That’s like nearly double all of London murders happening in just one of its 32 boroughs.

    The murder rate in St Louis is 64.9 per 100,000 residents, according to the Major Cities Chiefs Association Violent Crimes Survey, which is 43 times higher than London. In Baltimore the murder rate is 51.1. In New Orleans it is 40.6 and in Detroit it is 39.7. Even in Washington DC, where Trump calls home in the White House, the murder rate is 11 times higher than London.
