It would have been worse here in the UK if guns acess was as easy as the U.S. Here they break your legs instead

remember when the madows were shooting each other in the 2000s and the police created "operation trident" specifically designed for "black on black crime".i don't know if they have such things in north America .lol.
Yes baasto I remember it well. The British have efficient way of dealing with this things. You nearly hear nothing of the frequent stabbings that was the order the these days. You remember when they hired some former newyork copper or somebody to deal with the high crime wave. Well he took the salary and the bonus m disappeared of the radar lol. It should be the other way round send experienced crime fighters from here to the other side to give them tips on how to fight crime.
it is far easier to deal with in the uk as you said,because most people do not have access to guns.america is awash with legal and weapons,with a higher madow and Latino population
i don't think it is that difficult to obtain intelligence on a few brush individuals who resided in similar postcodes
Brits are good at intelligence gathering,but they would have the same problems,if not worse,were guns to be made legal.
