Gun Crime - Problems & Solutions?

You can't compare England and America, whether you look at a geographical map or a political map you can see that it would be fairer to compare the UK and Florida, or America with the whole of Europe.
Every city has different crime rates. So does each city area. Every country or state has different rules on guns and the death penalty.
The questions affecting tourism and legislation are: Why is somebody (in Florida) allowed to roam the streets when they have just shot in a public place? Why do minors have access to a gun when they have not reached the age of responsibility, (young, special needs meaning low IQ or behavioural problem or both, and recent criminal history). Do they not have a curfew nor a minder?

Tourists should also observe a curfew, not out after midnight when taxis charge more and are hard to find, and there are few kind-hearted law-abiding pedestrians to tell you the way. Some US bars on New Year have signs saying that they will call free for a free taxi.
