The reality of the situation is in both of those countries, murder, rape, and violent crimes did not go down, even after the gun ban. The violent crimes actually went up, criminals just used different tools to accomplish their ill-conceived ends
Source? That's quite a claim.
Here's a source (the Washington Post, in a blog post about the effects of the Australia ban) saying exactly the opposite:
[A study found that] the firearm homicide rate fell by 59 percent, and the firearm suicide rate fell by 65 percent, in the decade after the law was introduced, without a parallel increase in non-firearm homicides and suicides.

Wait, so... they weren't injured in the accident? This was just a complication of your recovery?
No offense but that sounds like really shit medical care. Shouldn't the doctors/nurses have been moving you periodically so bed sores etc. wouldn't happen? Or at least have caught it before they were black and needed to be amputated?

I'm not talking about being up and walking around. Just moving your legs for you, maybe wiggling your toes. People have been in comas for years without losing 7 toes.
And anyway why would lying flat on your back keep blood from flowing to your toes? They weren't suspended above you.

Well, they're not naked. And customers aren't allowed to pat them on the ass. It's not exactly the same thing.
