Mike,

 

Well that's her risk to take. Nobody's raping Lena Miculek though. Or any number of capable girls. And it's not just the capable ones that can stop baddies. It's the possibility, for a baddy, that he might run into one of the capable ones. It's a deterrent. There are loads of reported foilings of crimes by armed people. There are many, many more times more crimes that never go beyond the dallying planning stages because of the lingering doubt that the victim might fight back properly.

 

I full well know the current legal landscape. It's wrong. Obviously I want men to be able to arm themselves too but women makes the point better. Any man who thinks self-defence tools should be restricted should look at his wife, his mother, his daughter etc and picture how much of a fight they could put up against four men who want to take turns on her cnt with a knife at her windpipe. And then ask himself if he'd rather they had the chance to shoot first.

 

And it very obviously doesn't have to be South Africa. Is that the only place where a person has the right to not suffer violence?

 

That guy on the train could have been carrying and he might not now be in hospital with knife wounds. Why should heroes like him be treated with contempt? If he'd have even had pepper spray, he'd have been caged for defending people.

 

Have you ever been in a knife fight btw? I nearly have. It was fcking terrifying. I've trained unarmed knife defences with rubber knives. That's fcking terrifying enough. Look at a knife. Picture a man coming at you with it. Picture him pushing it between your ribs. Fcking grim. People need guns. I do anyway. Tell me I shouldn't be allowed them and that I should be unarmed against criminals who care about weapons laws as much as they care about other laws (offences against people, property etc).

 

 

Alex its not going to happen.

 

"Darren  would get Sharron" to buy a gun,Darren would nick it/shoot their kid by accident,hire it to the local yardies before it would end up biffed into the Canal. Every street punk would get some infirm person to buy them a shooter and the streets would become far worse,thats already been covered on here.

 

If the guy who bravely defended the people on the train had a gun then maybe it would have ended sooner,or maybe he would have panicked and mag dumped the lot down a packed carriage killing an maiming even more people.Because the more bullets you have,the more you tend to use.

 

Carrying a pistol is a pain,if its easy enough to carry then its small enough to not be very effective/easy to use.If its a full size pistol then you are constantly aware of it and trying all the time to not expose it,I cant imagine having to ride the tube for example with a pistol in my wasteband,holding onto the overhead rail hoping some nutter wasnt going to make a grab for it.

Imagine the snarl up at the FAC licensing departments of the various constabularies . I have just renewed mine and she said its a 2-3 month wait . ( cheque made payable to The PCC for Sussex )   not sure what it stands for but I made mine payable to Sussex Police so that was another hold up . Or are you suggesting that Cherie and Tracey could pop down to the local FAD and buy one like you could a Mars bar ?

Vending machines Stubby.

 

Feed in you Digital ID,retina scan,pay your £5 admin fee, out pops a SA80!

 

The forces are looking to replace their Rifle ,so what better use than return then to the Tax payer? This is what New Zealand did when it switched to the AUG,$300 bought you a loverly L1A1 SLR.

 

Alas its not 1983 any longer and the gen pops tolerance to firearms is lower and lower.

Hang on here, are you referring to people with “ Downs” as mongs you sick bastard

 

If you are going to use the word make sure you know the meaning of it. BillQ is correct with it's meaning. Suggest a wee apology to him might be in order.

No, you mong - British offensive slang for a foolish person, despite the origins the modern meaning has evolved. image.thumb.png.fae30029e350afeacd11469df27d9214.png

Even Ricky Gervais knows it has a slang meaning

 

"The modern use of the word mong means 'dopey' or 'ignorant'," said Gervais in a statement. "It's even in modern slang and urban dictionaries."

 

WWW.BBC.CO.UK

Disability group Mencap criticises Ricky Gervais for using the word "mong" on Twitter but the comedian insists its meaning has changed.
