Typical BBC propaganda.
They ignore the rest of the world, where mass shootings have also gone up.
They ignore the part of the media in promoting these mass shootings.

Mass Murders In Europe Disprove Gun Control As Rx For Mass Murders In US - Fast Facts
Guns as weapon in mass murders in extremely restrictive gun-controlled Europe:
2015 Paris attack - 89 killed in automatic/semi-automatic* weapon attack at rock concertOther weapons in mass murders in Europe:2011 Norway attack - 69 killed by automatic/semi-automatic* weapons at Utoya island youth camp
2016 Nice attack - 87 killed by truckIf Stephen Paddock did not have any guns, could he not have used a truck or a plane (he was a licensed pilot) to inflict a comparable death toll?
*Note: Media reports vary and today's media reports as if they do not know the difference.

BBC should worry about their British subject Musiltards and need to be reminded why we kicked England’s a**.
