that england and the UK are two different countrys. i thought they were the same country
-
England is part of the UK, like Arizona is part of the US. The UK is formally a union between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. To be very precise, there is also a small town called Berwick-upon-Tweed that is actually a small "country" of its on in the UK, or used to be, on the English-Scottish border.

There used to be a county of Buckinghamshire, but I'm not sure if it is anymore. I know that the Royal Palace in Stockholm is a separate entity of Sweden and an own parish, the Court Parish, though.

i just assumed that the founding members of this country went with what they already knew.

They probably did. It was also a way to exclude the D.C. from Federal legislation. They used that to ban guns from D.C. for a long time, as we debated some weeks ago.

alot of black people live in DC.

I know. I once told people on a Swedish site that you could get rid of most gun crimes in the US if you banned blacks and latinos from having guns. They, of course, called me a racist and a nazi... ::)
-
white people use guns in the course of commiting crimes also.
i wouldn't put latinos in the same category as african americans involving crimes with guns.
african americans are probably the worst offenders.

By us it's Yugoslavs, Albanians, Arabs and Somalians that mostly are the worst criminals. They're by far worse than most ethnic Swedish criminals.

the slavs have grown up in a war torn country and the rest of your list is darker people.

Slavic peoples have always had a reputation for being brutal and criminal in Europe. But then again, they've always almost been poor and had some kind of dictator ruling over them. In Albania they still have the blood feud tradition. That was banned in Sweden about 7-800 years ago.

what is a blood-feud tradition?
why/how was it banned?

If someone in your family kills another person, his family must kill someone from your family. Then your family has to kill one of them again, until one of the families is extinguished.
It was banned when Christianity came and the Kings became more powerful. Until 1200-1300 or so, Sweden was like a union of small kingdoms or tribal provinces. There were Kings over all of Sweden already before year 1000, but they didn't have that much power from the beginning. They couldn't even charge people with murder to start with.

It is. The damned thing is that the Albanians still do it in some cases, even when they migrate to Sweden.

There is apparently supposed to be lots more gun crime in the midlands, but it's just black people shooting other balck people in their areas. Let's face it, if they weren't doing it here they'd be doing it in Africa.

I have told that fact to other Swedes and said that you could bring down the gun crime rate by simply banning black people from having guns. Of course they reacted with the usual "racist" and "nazi" accusations. PC jerks. ::)
