   Well, let's look at the UN findings:   
      
   From 1995 through 2009   
      
   UK (aka: England)	Average of 1.6 homicides per 100K (typ)   
      
   Ireland:		About 1.1 over the same time period   
      
   Canada:			Wow!  A crime wave at around a 1.8   
      
   US:			a 4.9 to 5.0   
      
   Please tell us again exactly how their approach has failed so badly.   
   It hasn't changed any.  What is it about our approach that is so   
   successful?  Why did we have yet another school shooting just today?   
   Were there any school shootings in the UK today?  Were there any   
   school shootings in Ireland?  Were there any school shootings in   
   Canada.   
      
   We have had about two weeks between this one and the last one; during   
   that time period:  Were there any school shootings in the UK?  Were   
   there any school shootings in Ireland?  Were there any school   
   shootings in Canada.   
      
   Let's see: we had Las Vegas followed quickly by Sutherland Springs.   
   During the same time period, how many mass shootings were there in the   
   UK?  How many mass shootings were there in Ireland?  How many mass   
   shootings were there in Canada?   
      
   Please explain your logic.   
      
   I'll bet that you also believe that, when they wrote: "A   
   well-regulated militia...", you think that the founders meant   
   something completely different from: "A well-regulated militia..."   
      
   It sounds to me like they meant: "A well regulated militia..."?
