and Piers is playing with #s.

35 gun murders in the UK is a higher % to population (5.64) than 11,458 (3.67%) in the US.

Murder rate is 8.89% in the UK and 4.687% in the US

I think your figures need looking at again mate. They are way off.

Well post some factual stats and figures instead of just typing crap!

OK, 87 gun deaths a DAY in America...35 in a year in the UK.

There's a fact for you.

The U.S. has a violence rate of 466 crimes per 100,000 residents, and just for the hell of it Canada has 935.

Piers Morgan is an elitist dick. That is his shtick, so I think that he can handle the radio guy taking it to him.

He is an elitist dick, a tory arsehole, one of the faces that has caused me to dislike right wing politics.

Piers Morgan is not right wing. He is pretty much the opposite.

Because of his stance on guns? Not in britain, he is a tory, the party of the right, who stand for the priveleged few.

The definition for right wing and left wing must be different across the pond. He is on the left of every issue that he talks about.

I'm telling you, he changed his schtick...Exactly what I would expect from somebody like him.

In case you wasn't aware, the UK has more CCTV than anywhere else. A violent crime in the UK is as simple as when a lad is punched outside a nightclub on a Saturday night. Those figures don't differentiate between the severity or lack of in each given case.

And the gun related deaths you like to throw around in the US do not take into account the concentration in only certain metro areas of the country.

COLUMBINE STUDENT'S FATHER 12 YEARS LATER!!

Guess our national leaders didn't expect this. On Thursday, Darrell Scott, the father of Rachel Scott, a victim of the Columbine High School shootings in Littleton, Colorado, was invited to address the House Judiciary Committee's subcommittee. What he said to our national leaders during this special session of Congress was painfully truthful.
They were not prepared for what he was to say, nor was it received well. It needs to be heard by every parent, every teacher, every politician, every sociologist, every psychologist, and every so-called expert! These courageous words spoken by Darrell Scott are powerful, penetrating, and deeply personal. There is no doubt that God sent this man as a voice crying in the wilderness. The following is a portion of the transcript:

"Since the dawn of creation there has been both good &evil in the hearts of men and women. We all contain the seeds of kindness or the seeds of violence. The death of my wonderful daughter, Rachel Joy Scott, and the deaths of that heroic teacher, and the other eleven children who died must not be in vain. Their blood cries out for answers.
"The first recorded act of violence was when Cain slew his brother Abel out in the field. The villain was not the club he used.. Neither was it the NCA, the National Club Association. The true killer was Cain, and the reason for the murder could only be found in Cain's heart.
"In the days that followed the Columbine tragedy, I was amazed at how quickly fingers began to be pointed at groups such as the NRA. I am not a member of the NRA. I am not a hunter. I do not even own a gun. I am not here to represent or defend the NRA - because I don't believe that they are responsible for my daughter's death. Therefore I do not believe that they need to be defended. If I believed they had anything to do with Rachel's murder I would be their strongest opponent
I am here today to declare that Columbine was not just a tragedy -- it was a spiritual event that should be forcing us to look at where the real blame lies! Much of the blame lies here in this room. Much of the blame lies behind the pointing fingers of the accusers themselves. I wrote a poem just four nights ago that expresses my feelings best.

Your laws ignore our deepest needs,
Your words are empty air.
You've stripped away our heritage,
You've outlawed simple prayer.
Now gunshots fill our classrooms,
And precious children die.
You seek for answers everywhere,
And ask the question "Why?"
You regulate restrictive laws,
Through legislative creed.
And yet you fail to understand,
That God is what we need!

"Men and women are three-part beings. We all consist of body, mind, and spirit. When we refuse to acknowledge a third part of our make-up, we create a void that allows evil, prejudice, and hatred to rush in and wreak havoc. Spiritual presences were present within our educational systems for most of our nation's history. Many of our major colleges began as theological seminaries. This is a historical fact.
What has happened to us as a nation? We have refused to honor God, and in so doing, we open the doors to hatred and violence. And when something as terrible as Columbine's tragedy occurs -- politicians immediately look for a scapegoat such as the NRA. They immediately seek to pass more restrictive laws that contribute to erode away our personal and private liberties. We do not need more restrictive laws.
Eric and Dylan would not have been stopped by metal detectors. No amount of gun laws can stop someone who spends months planning this type of massacre. The real villain lies within our own hearts.

"As my son Craig lay under that table in the school library and saw his two friends murdered before his very eyes, he did not hesitate to pray in school. I defy any law or politician to deny him that right! I challenge every young person in America , and around the world, to realize that on April 20, 1999, at Columbine High School prayer was brought back to our schools. Do not let the many prayers offered by those students be in vain. Dare to move into the new millennium with a sacred disregard for legislation that violates your God-given right to communicate with Him.

To those of you who would point your finger at the NRA -- I give to you a sincere challenge.. Dare to examine your own heart before casting the first stone!
My daughter's death will not be in vain! The young people of this country will not allow that to happen!"
- Darrell Scott

No they don't take it into account. It's a statistic and like mini skirts, statistics don't reveal everything.

You have a population around 7 times bigger than ours. So we have 35 murders. You have 11,000 plus....

7 x 35 = 245

245 and 11,000 plus is a gigantic difference. Also, let's remember of those 35 the very, very vast majority take place in one or two cities.
