Take lesson from disarming of British citizens

A recent AP wire service story carried by the South Florida Sun-Sentinel indicated that Great Britain has been experiencing an increase in the flagrant use of guns in crimes across the country. Unfortunately, Britain is going down its own self-determined path, one where only criminals -- and now police -- are carrying guns.

"Unfortunately, Britain is going down its own self-determined path, one where only criminals -- and now police -- are carrying guns."

In other words, as has been said a million times over:

Outlaw guns, and only criminals and the State will have guns.

DUH!

You and others may have an interest in reading Wayne LaPierre's article in March AMERICAN RIFLEMAN. What is going on in Canada is nothing less than Hitlerian persecution of gun owners/hunters.

I stand corrected. It may not make sense to everyone as explained on that page.

Basically, you type in *bang_list as a poster search(not topic, not keyword) be sure to include the asterik and underscore.

Hope this helps.

from the article:

"the short-term impact [of the handgun ban] strongly suggests that there is no direct link between the unlawful use of handguns and their lawful ownership."

I disagree. As lawful ownership declines, unlawful use goes up. To me, that's a direct link.

Maybe I'm reading it wrong? I think the writer meant directly/inversely proportional, but that's not what he wrote.

I'm probably pickin' at nits.

Thanks for trying to help. I must admit, although I can and have re-engineered a CMO, I have no clue what you just showed me. Thanks anyway.

Just discovered your post #8. I'll try it. Thanks.
