The nation that stands with us in Iraq, in Afghanistan and elsewhere deserves far better than to have to cower behind a barricaded bedroom door while street thugs ransack their home.
Please say a prayer for the people of Great Britain.
If he had told them that he had a gun and he was going to use it, they would have been around immediately. It is quite simple. Labour Party policing means ticking boxes. It means solving crimes. It means that there is no point in attending a crime scene if the perpetrators are not going to be there to be arrested. If the householder threatens to defend himself, the police will attend, because he is going to be there and available to be arrested, charged, prosecuted and convicted.

Next time you are burgled, phone and tell the police that a crowd of OAP Bowls Club pensioners have broken in, and the whole force will turn up.

Indeed. Can you imagine? These thugs would have been blown away - of course when you call the police and tell them you have three bodies in your foyer, they come immediately!
Political correctness run amok brings such as this. No family should ever be required by ‘the law’ to be defenseless during a home invasion. These poor folk have been victimized by their government; they just stood by and acquiesced to their government’s bullying. America - WAKE UP.
Keep voting those liberals in office.
It’s not very likely that Brits will ever get the right to own guns, which is a crying shame.
But there’s a secondary issue here, a right they already have that they are obviously not using.
They have the right to VOTE.
That means VOTE THE LOCAL POLITICIANS OUT OF OFFICE.
Why aren’t they doing that?
Why aren’t they organizing to elect leaders that AT THE VERY LEAST will make police protection something along the lines of the average US police force.
I know it’s not much, compared to the right to own guns and defend yourself, but at least it’s SOMETHING. And the Brits in that town don’t seem interested in even doing THAT.
They are sheep. I have no sympathy for them.
If they don’t have the guts to ask this question:
“How much is the police chief making and what are we getting in return for his salary?”
Then I have absolutely no sympathy for them.
Let them cower in fear, for all I care. That’s what sheep do.
Two choices:
1. Hit redial every two minutes
2. A 1911 or similar large caliber with high capacity magazines. Castle Doctrine Laws will keep you out of jail, but the English people don't have that protection.
Gang Rule now in LA and various other blue locations.
Coming next to your home town.
The next logical step in the mind of a lib will be to ban all axes.
Indeed Stoat, prayers for the good people of the UK in this terrible time of confusion and incompetence..
In the UK they don’t allow guns. They put you in jail for protecting your life, family and property. That leads me to the inevitable conclusion that the UK is quite happy to have criminals take what they want - a redistribution of income so loved by marxists, and they don’t have to pass any laws to make it happen.
BAD, BAD, BAD when will the people of the UK return to their freedom?
Well of course. The criminals can rob with impunity, knowing that the cops won't show up for at least three hours.
Move to the US where you (for the time being) still have the right to defend yourself. Buy a gun and learn how to use it.
Like the story in America. on the first call the police were busy and couldn’t respond to the burglary.
Second call, he told the police there was a gunfight going on and a policeman was shot, six police cars showed up in minutes and collared the burglars.
The cops told the victim he lied to them, the victim responded to the police , “you told me you guys were busy”.
Why not enact another law requiring criminals take a break after someone dials 911?. That would insure the police would have enough time to respond. I am sure the criminals wouldn’t mind waiting. ;0)
