Re: President Trump & U.S Election 2016 Investigation
Trump's point is ruled ridiculous by the surgeon who heads the group overseeing London's trauma treatment
Quote:
A senior London surgeon has hit back at US President Donald Trump for criticising the level of knife crime in the city while defending US gun laws.
Prof Karim Brohi, who heads the group overseeing the city's trauma treatment, said it was "ridiculous" to suggest guns could help combat knife violence.
He said the capital faced a "serious issue" but gunshot wounds were at least twice as lethal as knife injuries.
Mr Trump's comments came in a speech to the National Rifle Association (NRA).
Addressing the firearms lobby's conference in Dallas, Texas, on Friday, Mr Trump referred to reading a story "that in London, which has unbelievably tough gun laws, a once very prestigious hospital right in the middle is like a war zone for horrible stabbing wounds".
Trump's put-down to Barts as "a once very prestigious hospital" did not go unnoticed by Dr Griffiths. He responded to Trump on Twitter including an invitation "happy to invite Mr Trump to my prestigious hospital".
