T o the Editor
I he recent tragedy in a London
suburb in which a nun shot and k ill
ed 14 people is vad proof that strict
gun laws do not and cannot slop
determined crim inals and crazed
persons in any country from com
m itting murderous acts
It is internationally acknowledged
that Fngland's gun laws are among
the most restrictive in the world
Autom atic firearm * only may be
possessed with authority from the
Hom e S ecretary, w hile rifle s ,
pistols lor com petition only and
shotguns w ith barrels o l less than
24 uis hes require that a certificate he
issued by a police chiel »inly to per
sons who can show “ good reason"
tm possession F.ven long barrelled
shotguns require a certificate.
W hile horrible incidents such as
the one that occurred in Hungertord
are rare in F.ngland. it is widely
acknowledged that gun related crime
has been increasing over the past
several years despite the ccHintry s
tough gun laws
According to former C hief Inspec
lot C olin Greenwood o l the H alita*.
I ngland. Constabulary. “ The use of
firearm s in crim e was very much
less when there were no controls "
In tact, fn ati 1*36*3 to 197*3 Great Bn
tain s gun related crimes rose from
I . MIX to 6.S47, according to a rc|»>rt
by the l S I ihiary ot Congress till
ed '(iu u C ontrol la w s in fo re ig n
Countries " A IM71 Cambridge
t nivcrsily study ot Fngland's gun
laws suggested “ abolishing or
substantially reducing controls
Most scholars agree that Fnglish
customs and culture are the deter
m ining (actors in crim e rates, not
gun control An<*lher rnaior factor in
the low c M»lenl crim e in the country
is its system «'I junsptudense
C rim inals are sw iftly and severely
punished tor their crimes (1,'scol a
gun m a huiglary calls lot imprison
mem lor hte )
11 k - answer to reducing violent
crim e and gun related crim e in the
United Slates is liHigher penallK-s tor
crim inals Hut our crim inal iusiicc
system doesn't seem to he doing the
g>h
In many places in the United
States Texas. Oklahoma and the
D istrict ot Columbia arc jm o ng the
leaders hundreds of prisoner» arc
being released from |.nl before scr
sing then lull terms because ol over
crowding Others are turning more
and more to probation
T wo recent cases o l s lolcncc show
the real problem in Am erica
W illia m Cruse, who in A p ril shot
and killed si* people in Palm Bas.
Fla still is awaiting tria l Cruse
prohahly w ill plead not guilty hy
reason o f insanity, and may never
serve iiiik - in prison, and a V irginia
man who murdered a V irgin ia Slate
Trooper and another man |ust last
year could he eligible tor parole in
only seven years
There are approximately 20.000
gun laws m this country . yet violent
crim e continues to clim b And is no
coincidence that crime rates, which
fell Irum I*3H(i to 1*3X4 when the
prison population was reaching an
all iiiik - high, now arc on the rise as
crowded prisons turn prisoners loose
hy the hundreds or refuse to accept
new criminals
I t ’ s a shaiiK- wc have to he remind
ed ot the truth hy such a paintul in
cident occurring so tar away It s
tutu." we learned the lesson To
reduce the abuse ot firearm s, wc
must certainly and severely punish
the abusers No law can ever
eliminate access to firearm» to those
intent on indicting evil on good and
decent people no nutter where they
live
