Quite rare for UK to have such a mass shooting/killing, I think.

Gun crimes going up in UK as more guns seep out of US to the rest of the world. I remember reading a NYT article on that.

[starbugs]

Most police in UK don't carry guns, so when they meet a gunman, hongkan liao. Can only wait for their special police forces to arrive. Too late by then.

6 only lah

UK has stricter laws than USA. But the US guns export biz (both legal and illegal) is huge. Not easy to fight against I guess. Countries south of USA have been victims of it for decades.

Man kills 5, himself in UK’s first mass shooting in decade

LONDON (AP) — A young man who killed five people, including his mother, and then took his own life in Britain’s first mass shooting in over a decade had complained online about difficulties meeting women and being “beaten down” by life.

......

Gun crimes are rare in Britain, which has strict firearm control rules.

......

Police responded to multiple emergency calls at 6:11 p.m. Thursday arrived six minutes later at an address in Plymouth’s Keyham neighborhood, where Davison had shot and killed his mother, 51-year-old Maxine Davison, also known as Maxine Chapman.

According to police accounts, Davison left the house and immediately shot and killed a 3-year-old girl, Sophie Martyn, and her father, Lee Martyn, 43. He then shot and wounded two other people down the street whom police haven’t identified.

Police said Davison moved on to a park where he shot Stephen Washington, 59, who died at the scene, and then to a nearby street, where he shot Kate Shepherd, 66 on a nearby street. She died later in hospital.
