    Oh then your law mirrors Washington DC.

    Of course there are still tons of handgun shootings......

    That ban has never worked.

    edit: I hate to defend my home with a shotgun or rifle anyway.
    A shotgun can hit anything (including surrounding walls and people) and a rifle is shit for close quarter combat.

    I wouldn't have a clue about the close quarter combat thing.

    But I doubt our laws mirror the DC laws, for instance I would have to go thro' a huge rigmarole if I was to actually be allowed to keep a rifle in my house. Let alone six.

    Yeah but I have handguns.

    I'm not actually in DC (anymore). I'm in Maryland and work in DC.

    We call our area, which includes Northern Virginia, parts of Prince George's and Montgomery County Maryland and of course DC, the Washington Metropolitan Area.

    Right now I live on the fringes of that area, which I prefer.

    I used to live in the hood awhiles back.

    Well that explains why the gun ban does not work. Most either don't live in DC or can travel outside DC to get a gun.

    Who will know you have a gun until after you use it.

    It is like drawing a box on a map of the ocean and saying that no fish are allowed here. No nets, no barriers, just words stating that they are not allowed.

    The DC ban is just words on paper.
    Aren't we in the trust tree, thingey?

    comprehensive uk gun law guide

    sorry if it's too much reading.... this old article from 2000 may helpgive a quick idea
    read here


    some interesting bits:

    The new rules, when introduced, will require shotgun owners to demonstrate "good reason" for needing such a weapon.

    The power to revoke a shotgun licence would also be given to police.

    New gun regulations:

    Tightening controls on the maximum number of shotguns which could be held on a certificate

    Requiring two detailed character references with applications for shotgun certificates

    Possibly allowing the sale of air guns only through registered firearms dealers
    Introducing a common standard for testing of airguns

    Possibly banning the sale of imitation firearms to under-18s

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.

    See this is my thing...my the fuck don't we tighten our gun laws.

    Our laws are willy nilly and allow anyone to get anything just about.
    I'm for tightening the laws without removing guns. Total removal will never happen here anyway...it's a pipe dream.

    No it ain't.

    The average joe can't legally own a firearm. I don't think I'd own a burner if I lived in DC.

    There was a period where I had neither a burner or a registered firearm.

    Bringing weapons into DC is a no-brainer. The ban is still there.
    The UK, however, is an island.

    The US can't even stop people from getting over here.

    I totally understand your point about how easy it would be to get guns into America but I think you over-estimate the UK being an island thing. We don't want for drugs like cocaine here (thank jebus) and if there was a real demand for firearms I reckon smugglers would have no problem getting them in here.

    My point being I don't think us being an island protects us as much as we or other people would like to think. I mean, it's not keeping the asylum seekers out...

    yes, I posted that probably 20 pages ago about our situation here in America

    so....now explain to me how removing/banning firearms helps the honest citizen?
    teh crooks can still get em, easily at that, but not the home owner whos worked his ass off,
    60 hrs a week, 52 weeks a year, for 20 or so years, just to have something his own,
    only to let some dickhead come and take it at gunpoint because the liberals want guns banned
    so, AGAIN, the honest guy gets fkd while the shitbags get off
    not what I would call justice

    I forgot about our rampant drug problem in the equation of things.

    Good point.

    My point is teh banning ain't workin' in teh nation's capital.

    Teh average joe doesn't buy burners.
