Now we know why the UK disarmed its citizens, and even outlawed self defense.
No, it didnt.
To either.
Handguns were banned on the UK mainland in 1997, and assault rifles back in 88. All other weapons are legal. And handguns are legal in Northern Ireland. On the mainland, there are 2.3m legal firearms: rifles and shotguns.
I am sick and tired of posting comments esp about self defence. I wish people like you would have read the 7 million previous posts by myself and other British freepers who constantly correct that self defence myth.
