More gun laws on the way!!! What will the statist scum who run Britain think of next? Mandatory execution for looking at a handgun perhaps? Whoops, they don't believe in executing people, they find it much easier to just lock them up at the tax payers' expense.
The Home Office said on Friday it was considering a change to the law for a five-year minimum sentence for anyone caught illegally carrying a firearm.
Oh that'll help! (sarcasm). Don't they realise that the yardies and their contemporaries just won't be so careless about leaving any witnesses if they decide to impose tough sentences for owning and using handguns?
Detective Superintendent Dave Murphy told reporters on Friday. "We need to show we mean business".
Then its time to move over and let us deal with the bastards. Your method of dealing with violent professional criminals and gun crime has obviously completely failed. As Churchill once said when requesting larger weapons shipments from the US: "give us the tools and we will finish the job". Let the British citizenry carry firearms and defend themselves with deadly force if necessary and watch the gangsters, muggers and burglars run for their lives. Its time for British CCW, move over Tony "turd way" Blair.

First, when I read your posts, I feel there is hope for Britain. Second, you're right, Britain needs to bring back the death penalty. Third, I thought submachine guns were already illegal.

"Let the British citizenry carry firearms and defend themselves ... "Dear England, please consider what we did to you a few hundred years ago.
Follow the leader ... you'll be glad you did.

David, I made a prediction that when the British Government would stop handing out such wimpy sentences the criminals would stop leaving witnesses. In short, the murder rate was going to go up.
I predict unless the British government reverses their policies against the formerly gun owning public, the murder rate will look like South Africa's in ten years.

Oh no David Hunter, I am sad to see this. I didn't know Britian now has gangs with submachine guns. This is crazy and very disappointing to hear. I don't believe in gun control, because then only the criminals and (British?!) gang-bangers will have guns and then the real chaos would break out. This is bad news though. I'm wondering if it's safe anywhere anymore besides in arctic regions.
I'm also a bit surprised they have names like "Latisha Shakespear" in Britian. That sounds very inter-city American.

I think that they should make shooting people illegal.
That would stop them from shooting people.

This is the logical result of having an unwritten constitution, David.
Look at how the Liberals play word games with our written Constitution here in the USA. On your side of the pond whimsical politicians can change the meaning on a daily basis.
We've all got to get busier on holding the pols feet to the fire when it comes to our hard won rights as citizens.

Gun crime has become a serious issue in Britain with police reporting a rise in incidents...since firearms have been outlawed.
