That's not really much of a sample size

22 for London 21 for New York in March , I wonder why the murder doubled for the month in London what was happening over there?

It's significant because apparently it's the first time this has happened in modern history.

Mostly knife crimes, throughout the year USA overtakes the UK with all the mass shootings happening every other day or so.

At least London has vibrant middle eastern diversity to counter the negativity from all the crime there. What does New York have?

NYC is like the safest city (of any meaningful size) in the ENTIRE US.....barring maybe San Diego/Seattle....

So that's kind of a dumb argument....

What about comparing London with any of the dozens of US cities with major gun violence issues....And see how London compares....

But we all know that extreme gun nuts are not the brightest people on the planet....

Knife crimes? You mean to tell me that guns are strictly controlled over there, yet people are STILL getting killed?

How can that be?

You're missing the fact that this hadn't happened before in modern history.

There are certainly no mass knife killing sprees compared to the carnage caused by yank guns.
