The man with the knuckleduster screamed 'He's fighting back the b******, kill the b******, he's fighting back.'"Wow. Real tough guys.
When those guys get out of prison, he should arrange for them each to win a free, all-expenses-paid vacation to a Third World country.
And then have all loose ends tied up.

In the UK the terms "open/closed" are roughly analogous to our "minimum/maximum" in prison terminology.

He managed to wrestle a gun from one of the masked raiders and chased them from his luxury home in Uxbridge, West London, in November 2006, This can't be true. We all know that guns are ILLEGAL in England. Criminals certainly wouldn't be breaking the law now would they.

In the UK, that is probably a bad idea, especially if they don’t have guns. (Even if you took their gun away?)
What a man! While there are men like this, there will always be an England...

He should have just shot them.Sounds like it was a fake gun. Even so, it's surprising he wasn't jailed for brandishing it.

Obviously, he was mistaken. There aren’t any violent crimes in the UK, and especially no guns. They’ve outlawed both, you see.

Me thinks the two have a relation.
Bully for him.
