[quote] [b]Hugh said:[/b] Gun control is a load of shite as could impedes your right to over throw the government should you need to which you all should (go!!),[/quote] This is a joke, right? [quote] [b]White Hawk said:[/b] Tao - I do not lament the illegalisation of hand-guns for the loss of my freedom to own one, but for the simple fact that all this did was vastly reduce the number of legally held guns - it also increased the number of illegally held guns in this country.[/quote] I think the [i]illegalisation[/i] of hand guns was meant to reduce the number of guns held in this country. That was its main objective. So it is obvious that those that were still in circulation after the law was passed were then illegal. Gun club members or thugs. [quote] [b]White Hawk also said[/b] I'm not ranting at all - seeing as the question posed by this topic was "what do you use for home/car defence?", I thought it appropriate to point out that even a small wooden stick will likely get you arrested and charged if you happen to be stopped by a particularly zealous copper in the UK.[/quote] Yeah, the jails are heaving with "small stick" offenders. :rolleyes: There was also the "and where it is a dire offence to even have a screwdriver to hand in one's car," Oh really, not even a little rant? [quote]As for the Dunblane bollocks[/quote] So [b]sixteen children murdered[/b] by the legally owned guns of a idiot is just bollocks for me to mention is it? Listen, I know there is a lot more to this question of gun ownership legal or otherwise, and I'm trying to understand it as best I can. You say White Hawk, "I don't think you addressed my point at all. :P" What point? moaiz, I'm really sorry I mentioned the nunchaku now. I knew (after I had posted) that I would get some riducule somehow for that, and you duly stepped up. The senario you outline; [quote]The idea of a flash is a clever notion, until you consider the reaction... <<< strobe flash >>> Your element of surprise...gone. If the intruders face was uncovered you have now backed them into a corner, fight or flight...but in this case fight, (and snatching that camera from your bloody hands) would ensue that flight would be safer. Knowing police response time sucks, you just started a clock in the intruders brain. Forcing a confrontation by relinquishing surprise and quadrupling the adrenal threat of your assailant, humm.[/quote] is a creation in your imagination, designed to mock me and make you feel good. I should not have posted that suggestion, it has worked well for me in the past, it does not mean it would work for other people. I really an sorry I posted in this thread at all, there are a lot of vicious minds out there who look for the worst in people. I have already said what I think about guns. Guns are made to kill people, not sport not some innocent pastime. The fewer we have in our society the better. Just because it would be difficult to enforce is no reason not to have a ban. We can only make this world a better place [b]if we try[/b]. It will take time and a lot of effort but it is not impossible. Or is the human race so f***** up that violence and war is our means and our end?
