The reality is that since the private ownership of most firearms was banned in the UK
only the criminals have guns. Now that’s idiocy!

An interesting statistic is that in the US only 12% of all burglaries take place in occupied
homes (home invasions by definition). Guess what, in Britain where the criminals know
that the homeowner will be unarmed, approximately 60% of burglaries are home invasions.
