Sometimes I wonder what would happen to the all British "we know it better" attitude the day shit really hits the fan and they find themselves on the wrong end of a 12"..
then a lot of the rioters could have been equally armed.

would've been carnage.

so far one guy was shot dead (gang related apparently) thsoe three blokes that got hit by a car and a couple of bystanders (not rioters or police) have gotten a kicking.

I too believe very strongly in gun control.....Everyone who owns a gun should go to a good small arms school and learn how to control their gun. I like ASAA.

But that's fine if it reduces suffering, right?

More like euthanasia, right?

still beating a dead horse here me thinks..

truth is that the advocates of gun ban live a contradictory life, if they're comfortable in playing their war games but are against firearms..

There are 90 firearms for every 100 citizens here which makes it the most heavily armed society in the entire world. Bless the soul whose job it is to collect and document all of them.

No, you're not getting the point, for whatever reason. British society is based on guns remaining in the hands of Her Majesty's Armed Forces and, to a limited extent, HM Police. The majority of UK citizens are quite happy for this to be the case.

I don't have any problem discerning between my views on (not) distributing guns to the masses and playing historical war-games on a computer. There's no comparison.

Or they can distinguish between reality and fiction.
