A report issued by the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) shows that gun bans result in higher murder rates.
The report looks at the January 1997 "handgun ban in England and Wales" to substantiate this.
Between the time of that ban and 2012, the "homicides rates" rose, exponentially at times, and fell, but they only fell to a level lower than 1996 rates in one year--and that was 2010. Studies that claim "success" for the handgun ban are frequently an outworking of crime numbers that have been manipulated to make the ban look effective.
Breitbart News reported on this manipulation on October 18, showing that there are certain "bureaucratically designated 'targets'"--or "thresholds"--which a crime in Britain has to meet before it is even reported as a crime to begin with.

Sure they do; just look at Australia, England, the Netherlands, France, Germany and this list goes on and on and on.
10:25 Literally one of those countries faced a increase in homicide rates, and it isn't even statistically significant. (Australia has a huge decline in gun violence and homicides)
Gun bans have statistically almost nothing to do with gun violence. Cultural differences and income disparity are the most influential variables. I wish we could stop arguing for and against gun bans and just let the democratic process play out.
LOOK AT SWITZERLAND. Minimal crime--everyone owns a gun. Liberals do not understand.
