Subject: BS: US : UK gun statistics
5:1    - ratio of the population of the USA compared to the UK
8000:1 - ratio of the number of gun deaths USA (31,500) to UK (39) per year

500 USA gun deaths SINCE THE SANDY HOOK SCHOOL KILLINGS (9 days ago) - that's over 10 times the UK yearly average in just over a week....
