They have school stabbings. UK & Germany have grooming gangs. Paris is the crime capital of Europe.
Please take your BS elsewhere.
See my other comment (sorry, Voyager seems to generate weird share links).
While violence at schools does exist in Europe, the numbers just don't compare to the US.
And don't forget! The US has stabbings too, its just that you have so many shootings that a stabbing won't make the news.
Also, what are "grooming gangs"?
The US doesn't only have stabbings too, it has more per capita than the UK.
In addition to the gun murder disparity
But! But! Banning guns doesnt work!!1!
