What statistics are you talking about @Nick-D these guys disagree with you. OK so one face on the page has no credibility but the economy is APPARENTLY going very well but burglary getting worse.

Well I was referring to crime statistics as a whole, which is in fact really irrelevant to the argument, my point being very well documented that increasing sentences has little effect on crime rate. This is commonly offered up by our community as a counter argument to reduce firearm crime rates, and I'm just pointing out that it is based on about as much evidence as thumbhole stocks making ar15's safer.

It's nonsense, as is much of the current legislation. Im merely saying that given the issues with theft, implementing better standards than the current shite ones would actually have an effect on the issue at hand.

As for the economy, well it's going Ok, but inflation and cost of living is sky rocketing much faster than wages leaving the lower socioeconomic groups most affected. You do the maths there. It's why I said, not just a healthy but a balanced economy. All of that is irrelevant anyway, but just musings
