LONDON - British police said the death toll from a shooting spree in northwest England earlier on Wednesday had risen to 12.
A taxi driver described as quiet but friendly went on a shooting spree across a picturesque rural area before apparently turning the gun on himself, police said.

What did he do the killing with?
IN FACT, at airports like Chicago, NY, LA and Dallas etc, there are thousands of Muslims circling these airports in cabs.
We need to thank the U.S. government for rolling out the red carpet and allowing these tens of thousands of Muslims into our country.

from the Times (UK) chronology:
17.05 BST Several witnesses say Bird was shooting his victims with a shotgun, but others specifically describe a rifle.

I realize the story is from across the pond, however, back here in the US of A we had a nutjob take out her own son last year at a firing range.
Nobody saw it coming, she shot, then when the son stepped up to shoot, she shot him in the back of the head.
I'll see if I can find a link.
so let us set the record straight. Guns are NOT illegal in Britain. The police here have not stated what weapon was used in this affair, but several witnesses have said that they saw the guy with a shotgun. There are, as of the last count in 2009, 1,336,000 shotguns LEGALLY held by over 500, 000 britons registered to hold them.
Just remember when you start spouting on this, twelve people are DEAD. Twenty-five others have been hospitalised. I do not consider it a time for flippancy. Vanders (who lives in West Cumbria)
When I was a teenager, I loved his stuff. I didn’t know better, TILL I started listening more closely to some of the words. George Harrison got my attention and then I started wising up to lyrics. THIS is the song that started turning me off:
My sweet lord
Hm, my lord
Hm, my lord
I really want to see you
Really want to be with you
Really want to see you lord
But it takes so long, my lord
My sweet lord
Hm, my lord

I really want to know you
Really want to go with you
Really want to show you lord

That’s going to change after this. Adios shotguns.
The quiet ones are always the ones to watch out for. This guy flipped his lid. In other words, he has likely been “bottling up” his frustrations for some time.
That is why I asked.

handguns were banned as a result of the Dunblane shooting.
Or when you are not expecting it. For goodness sake guys, he jumped into a car, drove south and took potshots at people at random. Do you think any of your gun-toting compatriots would have stopped him quickly?

And how many of the victims stood any chance of defending themselves, having been disarmed years ago?
All of the U.K. is a victim disarmament zone, while the thugs are free to do as they like!
Even when the yobs break into a home, the homeowner must not defend themselves or they will be the one prosecuted.
Recall what happened to the farmer, Tony Martin, in his own home.
The U.K. has gone liberal NUTS, so sad, I will never visit again.
