London Knife Attacks Set To Outpace NYC Murder Rate For First Time In Modern History
Humm… You mean getting rid of guns didn’t stop murders? What the left refuses to comprehend is that evil will perpetuate itself regardless of the weapon used.
Very interesting how these “murder” statistics don’t include victims of terrorism. I’m a bit confused why murdering someone of their religious belief is somehow different than murdering them for any other reason.
Is there anyone that could tell us what possibly could be the cause of this murder rate increase? Anyone?

Londoners are alarmed that their city has seen more murders over the past two months than New York City – as police across the pond deal with a surge in knife crime, according to reports.

In February and March, 37 people were killed in London, compared to 35 in the Big Apple, according to the Sunday Times.
Now local pols are even looking to New York’s Finest for crime-fighting inspiration.
“New York has been able to bring down serious violence through a public health approach,” Croydon Central MP Sarah Jones, who chairs a parliamentary committee on knife crime, told the BBC.

Both cities have roughly the same population; in the month of February, 15 people were murdered in London, whereas NYC recorded 14 homicide deaths, reports The London Times.
London is set to outpace NYC’s murder rate for March, as well. “By late last night there had been 22 killings in the capital, according to the Metropolitan police, against 21 in the US city,” notes the Times. Eight of those murdered in March happened in a span of just seven days.
Since 2014, excluding victims of terrorism, the number of London murders has risen by a stunning 38%.
London has also seen an “epidemic” of acid attacks in recent years.
The increase in fatal crime is a recent trend in London. According to the Times, “FBI data and studies by the late Eric Monkkonen, a researcher at the University of California, show that since 1800 London has had a murder rate per person of between half and a 20th of New York’s.”

The UK banned guns & heavily restricted knives. Then they imported a bunch of people who hate western civilization.
Now their murder rate is higher than NYC.
Well done, you morons, well done. https://t.co/7M2bbU6Mrq

If you take away guns from the populace, you will soon be jailed for your opinions, as is happening in the UK today.
AND psychos will still find a way to kill people, as is happening in the UK today…..
Think, folks. https://t.co/d6vKh18iWC
