Why are British people so concerned with gun controls in America? It's got nothing to do with you!

I wish we had the right to bear arms in the UK.

When the shtf in America at least people will have a chance to defend themselves.

The only people who have guns here are criminals and the state, and I don't trust either.
Not true SuperFrank.

I have a 12G pump action Benelli Shotgun and .270 Browning Rifle. Both legally held. But I did have to hand in my 9mm Beretta pistol in 1997 due to the muppet Tony Blair.

Most houses in the UK have weapons dont they? I hear stories about woman and their bullet thing all the time... I've never seen one but they must exist.

Most households in the world (if not every) have weapons.
Killing someone with a gun is easy. A twitch of the finger.
I must say I also have a deep dislike of the concept that guns are sexy, cool and desirable.
They aren't. At best they are tools of the trade. Thieves, armed police, soldiers, game-keepers, farmers, professional cullers. Who the hell else needs a gun? I worked with 2 guys that had guns. One came into work with it after a dispute with management. The other at a party he hosted took one out of its cabinet, put it in his mouth and pulled the trigger. To prove how diligent he was about owning his guns.

If you don't have a gun you can always resort to acid-throwing. :roll:

It's not just women that have them. Blokes insert them into their sex dolls, so I'm told. :)

Trump refused questions, as he did last time. The press shouldn't bother turning up and giving him propaganda time if he's going to snub them. On the other hand, if he is going to answer questions he'd be better off not turning up. :lol:

Ruby Giuliani's son Andrew tests positive. Surprised Rudy hasn't yet, given the way he was sweating and his poor hygiene.

When I saw him sweating up, that was my first thought.
