President Trump's long-delayed visit to Britain to meet Prime Minister Theresa May is scheduled for July 13. Meanwhile, it was only last month he had warmly received French President Emmanuel Macron in Washington. But despite the outward appearance of warm ties with Britain and France, traditionally two of the United States' strongest European allies, Trump managed to stoke outrage and anger in both London and Paris this weekend — and he did so with a single speech. |

Exactly what comment President Trump made is impossible to discover without access to the story, but it is true that while the British have banned many guns and forbidden self defense uses of guns, it's also true that London's murder rate recently exceeded the murder rate of New York City ---- but not through means of gunplay, but from the use of knives.
So some British boob got her nose out of joint because Trump said something unpolitic. British boob: GO SOAK YOUR HEAD IN A POT OF TEA. |

Ok, finally got to the story.
It really is nothing more than euro weenies whining about something Trump stated.
The crime rate in London has not been represented as good. Even that ol libtard Dan Rather admitted that violent crime over there was worse than America, factoring out murder.
I'd like to hear a London er explain Chicago's violence, an American city with severe gun control laws. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
