Also, the murder rate in NY has been nearly 5 times that of London for two centuries. During this time, neither city had any gun control laws. In 1911, NY instituted some of the most severe gun control laws. Such gun control laws weren’t enacted in London for nearly a decade later. However, NY still continued to have a higher murder rate than London.

In England, crime dropped as guns became available. England’s bill of rights in 1688 allowed private citizens to own guns. England’s remove of the guns was not due to a gun crisis. At the end of the 19th century there were only 59 fatalities from handguns with a population of 30 million. 19 were accidents, 35 were suicides and three were homicides. It wasn’t until the 20th century when more gun laws we enacted did the crime rate start to rise.

I’m not sure what “western Democracy” has to do with it but Brazil and Russia are prime examples of stricter laws and higher crime rates.
