London is a perfect example that the left simply denies.
Any of these European Utopias that have heavy restriction on private citizens owning guns that enacted it and the last 50 years can't show a drop in Murder or violent crime.
That's why they cherry-pick the detail about gun related crime course gun related crimes going to be lower but that doesn't mean other crime is going to vanish and it certainly doesn't mean that a percent of all crime goes away just means people use different methods.
Something else you should take into account is how other countries view murder. Some countries may only view of murder if they have a murder conviction. So it's really difficult to compare murder rates and say which place is better because we don't really know.
