B3TA fixes the world
Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

Extend the logic
If driving cars is a right, then so must be owning and firing guns. Look at the USA for several million reasons not to adopt this policy. Having spent a fair proportion of my life clearing up after the abuse of cars, guns and other weapons, I would definitely say they are deserving of control and privilege.

St. Louis, MO
was once the 2nd most dangerous city in the world. Once the outlawing of gun ownership inside the city limits was lifted, it went down to the 285th.

Association does not imply causality
Gun ownership is associated with gun deaths. The higher the level of ownership the higher the number of firearm deaths.

Then
explain how more people in London are shot than in New York. Outlawing guns means only outlaws have guns.

Intruiging...
if it's true. I'd love to see your stats... It would certainly go against the trend as the firearm-related death-rate per 100,000 population in the US is 15.22 and 0.46 in the UK.
