Strict Gun Laws in New York City

Anyone who has resided in New York, know what a gun anal state it is, and New York City with its Sullivan Law is even worse. Let's take a look at their success in eliminating violent crime:

Knife Killings in City Increased 50 Percent in 2008

Here is a quote:

In 2008, even as gun killings fell, the number of killings committed with knives or other “cutting instruments” rose 50 percent in New York City, the Police Department said...

...It was possible, but hard to document, Mr. Browne said, that measures like undercover gun-trafficking investigations and interrogations, in which people arrested for lower level crimes are asked to provide information on gun cases, had led to the rise in knife killings and the drop in gun slayings.

This is the point I have been making all along. Violent people will use whatever means handy at the time to perpetrate their evil, while the New York hierarchy disarms law abiding citizens so that they can't protect themselves.
