Americans think guns shouldn’t be regulated as they’d just end up with knife crime like the UK.
Firstly, even if this were true, attacks by knives have far lower risk of death than firearms. Secondly, it’s not true. Despite us apparently relying on knives, and the US having access to firearms, the US *still* has a higher homicide by knives rate.
It’s just an incredibly violent and sociopathic culture running through the entire country.
Idk what Americans you’ve met, but they’re veeeeeeery quick to stereotype the UK as being a knife ridden, lawless nightmare, same as how everyone thinks the US is a gun mad, lawless nightmare.
Like an American has ever heard of Tesco’s…
Oh yes everyone knows about the boys with knives outside Tesco happens all the time
Apart from knife crime is still worse in America even accounting for the population difference
It’s funny and all…but let’s just say I won’t take any comment about the UK’s knife crime from any yank, considering their rates are STILL higher than ours…
The idea that you’ll get your eyeballs stabbed out as soon as you set forth in London is a beloved propaganda line of the American right wing (as well as the British right wing of course).
This sub is British memes made by Americans, apparently.
Wait until they hear about our spoon-crime epidemic!
americans seem to think the entire UK is south london
Then just never refuse to buy alcohol 🤷
*What the 14 years old say they’ll do f you don’t buy them a 6-pack of wkd.
(they’re armed with fingers poking into their hoodie pockets)
Fuck off.
Knife crime in America is higher.
more offended by the “Oigh maight” shit.
Yeah but did you see how that guy only killed a single person in his rage induced alcoholic fury?
Loool our kids don’t do drills for shootings
Try again
One of the most embarrassing moments in my life was in my mid-20s’ when me & my mates were refused alcohol in Tescos – none of us had ID.
We had to get the kids outside to go in & buy some for us with their fake ones.
Can confirm I have been stabbed outside a Tesco many times.
Americans probably think how woke we are not to have guns LMAO
‘Oi Cleanshirt, can I have a bit of your Coke?’
US show featuring Americans, fetishising violence using bladed weapons, in a country with a per capita knife homicide rate 25-30% higher than the UK.
But sure, we’re the ones with the problem.
America also has higher levels of knife crime than we do
The first thing that gives OP away as a cosplaying yank is the caption. The second is the fact that 14-year-olds outside Tesco threatening to stab you for refusing to buy them alcohol is simply not a thing that happens.
“Guns for show, knives for a pro.”
Americans think knives can be reloaded and fired from a distance.
262 homicides were commited with a bladed article in 2024, thats throughout the entire Uk’s 70 million populus..
262 homicides is a bad month in chicago lets be real, its not close to the same levels.
I feel like people in this sub eat this shit up. Every time it’s the same replies (all true BTW), but really that’s what they’re looking for. Even if you’re blastin OP in the comments you’re still just engaging with nonsense for the ragebait algorithm. It’s almost like you want to see more of these low effort memes just so you have something to do.
Do we need right wing Republican propaganda about dumb ass guns? I don’t think we do.. I’m happy I don’t have to worry about my son being shot at his school
Guns are not banned, I have owned shotguns, my friend has an accuracy international sniper rifle. Wish people would stop saying that.
