What would you rather have, mass shootings in schools or the ability to do Travis impersonations in the mirror?

A murky start but just out winding up some loose ends. Tow bar to be fitted to the Freelander 2, a couple of jobs to price up tomorrow and that’s me done for the year. Back to Blighty to visit folks, fish and chips on the pier, curry and a barrel of best bitter. 👍

Morning gents! That’s the wee 1 2 weeks old now, last night was her first proper feed and back to sleep night so I’m off to work today locally. Windy and rain blustering through.

Morning all, Dry for now, looking like heavy rain soon. Chipping up stuff that’s already down, then tracking over the ground to try and make it look like a lawn again.

According to a but of googling you are 40 times more likely to be shot in the US compared to the UK

I will go back to what I said previously. You are less likely to be shot here than the US. And I would hazard a guess that it's because so many people have guns in the US.

Good Morning Wednesday....hold on, I'm not ready! Have a great hump-day!

Morning All, supposed to be foggy and I'm on the patch today so be careful if you are out driving! Soon be the weekend! Bust, Turk, Eaten.

What if both " sides " were armed and a fire fight started , when 5o do get there who do they shoot at ?

For anyone interested in studying the battlefield and coming to their own conclusions on tactics and winning the firefight, I'd suggest google streetview. The girl in orange sandals and the long shirt carries herself with a very agreeable ease.

Good question. Don't know.

It's not a surprise nor unreasonable that the coppers couldn't get there and fix it in under x minutes. There aren't many of them, cities are big and congested; it takes time to go places and time to make sure they're not being ambushed on the way in etc (remember the policewoman in Machester who got lured into a grenade attack). The problem is the authorities know this but prevent people from defending themselves anyway. They assume the individual's right to self-defence on the basis that they will use that right and power instead, to do for the individual what they would have ordinarily done for themselves. Then they don't keep up their end of the bargain. It's a failed short-sell. They borrow more than they can pay back. They're a shepherd who tethers his stock and goes to bed rather than watch them. He knows he can't stay awake all night and that if a wolf comes, he can't do much. But he still prevents them saving themselves.

Just loads of individual ones. And loads of other individual offences that could have been deterred by the possibility of armed opposition or thwarted by actual armed opposition.
