[Partisan Gunslinger]

Look, I know y’all would have done shot the men doggone it, but as most British don’t own guns and those of us who do don’t carry, what were the people there (a collection of housewives, older people and a few young uns) supposed to do really?.

Yeah, that's the whole problem. The British people don't demand gun rights like we do.

You're a Scot I assume. I think the powers that be set out to destroy the individualism and fighting spirit of the Brits and Scots in WW1. They made the Scots, who were the force of the British armies, stand up and walk into German gunfire. I believe that was a planned genocide. Can I prove it? No. But the British haven't been the same since the millions of the good UKer's were wiped out.

Correct, probably because gun ownership has always been low in the UK. More apathy than anything.

Yes, I am. And a historian/military historian. Sorry, but that’s rubbish. Firstly, the myth that the British High Command in WW1 were butchers and bunglers is just that, a myth, beloved by film and TV, but wrong. Thankfully a younger generation o historians since the 90s is shattering that myth. Secondly, yes, the British made mistakes, yes we suffered horrible casualties, but then so did everyone. It was simply the new ability to kill in great numbers.
