More Legal Guns in Essex.

#1 Post by bobbob »

Interesting article in our local paper. (Only read it online as I wouldn't pay for it as it isn't any good.)

http://www.echo-news.co.uk/news/1636829 ... -controls/

The way I look at it is that there must be more people living in Essex that have decided to keep on the right side of the law so that is a good thing.

Gill Marshall-Andrews, chairman of the Gun Control Network, claimed society should be working towards fewer guns, and that the rise in legal firearms was difficult to explain.

Maybe the inrease in the population of Essex has something to do with it ????

I think the photo in that article makes it libelous.

Anybody involved in gun control on any level, anywhere, at any time can't be very bright.

The idiots are put in charge of gun control for a reason and it stinks, or appears that way.
Heaven forbid a shooter gets put in charge, that wouldn't do would it! ****

Shotguns have probably been used in more armed raids on banks, post offices and homes than any firearm so why is all quiet about banning those?
Oh yes, silly question really 8-)

As the article says Chuck....Drugs are already banned but the criminals still have s*** of them so what will the bright politicians do? ban them a little bit more? Criminals care not a jot about whats legal.
The real agenda is about disarming the public.
And the "what if" mentality of the people that are pushing this should be made criminal in itself.
