When that doesn't work ..... you get the picture. If I live long enough I am convinced that I will have to live on souip because a knife and fork will be deemed to be too dangerous for a private citizen to own! One of these days - after they have disbanded the army because it is too dangerous for them to be armed - some totalitarian group will be able to tske over the country with catapults! PS Like the one about the UK being where Great Britain once was.

Woe betide the general public should have access to weapons, we might decide to get shut of the bunch of idiots in power. We now have a movement wishing to ban knives, it will be pointy sticks next, because we are all so inable of being adults and need the state to tell us how we should behave and what we can own.

Ban the weapon, ban the pictures of the weapons, ban speech about using weapons, ban bread sticks. The United Kingdom. It's where Great Britain used to be.

It is a reflection of UK society. The UK has such a rich firearms history, I since I was a kid I have dreamed about owning a rifle in a caliber ending with "H&H", yet they seem to have fallen so far.
