Should The UK Make Firearms Legal?

[BunnieBealla]

If you think about it there's really no way to defend ourselves if the worst happens
most if not all weapons and even pepper spray is prohibited here
and with the knife crime and acid attacks increase over the last decade I think there's at least slight unease amongst the general population
Do you think we should be more lenient and have a right like the US to carry for protection? Or do you think it was the right choice to ban them? uwu

I was trying to make an euphemism for illegal immigrant Muslims.

Ah okay, so it´s not about citizenship or heritage, but they only need to change their religion. Thanks for the answer.

What about woman against a rapist twice her weight? I guess if she can't fist fight her way out of it then then she doesn't deserve a way to be safe. That's what gun bans look like to me.

[Fumo Bnnuy n Frends]

any anti gun nut usually has armed guards around them already in some way shape or form.

in all honesty sometimes you need to go off the deep end to fix stuff.

the problem is that the UK police as stretched thin as it is thanks to the government constantly savaging their numbers and resources. You'd be lucky to get a police response half the time.

The only thing being savaged is the little white girls in Telford, which the police actively covered up. The police don't work for you.

never said they did. i also never said they were corrupt either.

Even in GB, soldiers are armed.

The UKs completely reasonable gun laws were established after the Dunblane massacre.

And they are indeed reasonnable.

More on that gun control and what i could entail, here is the Aussie solution : it worked.
Think that in the bush, the police ain't coming before the next day ... So guns WERE definitively a thing there.

The Australian solution worked? Based on what?

Brits won't be able to handle guns, it's not in their culture.

If everyone carries guns it just means the worst is much more likely to happen.

It's the right decision to ban them.

Understand, though, that the UK is very different to the US. Guns have been banned in some form or another for a very long time, so the number of people who have them in the UK is very low. So, there really isn't anything to defend yourself from. Of course there are still some serious crimes in the UK, but people really shouldn't be afraid of these. They are very rare.

Gun Control's Twisted Outcome
Restricting firearms has helped make England more crime-ridden than the U.S.

I often see Americans using the UK to justify their arguments about gun control. Firstly, the two situations are completely different and really can't be compared, and secondly the quoted information is often our of scale, in that sure crime does still exist, but it is rare, and it's mostly between drug gangs.

[JacquesPatat]

with my little knowledge of UK firearms. to my understanding is that firearms is controlled very strictly compared to other countries like America, but only certain types of weapons is outright banned in the UK.

But found with my Country, how easy it is to get a certificate of compliance to own a weapon and buying a weapon and getting the licence with it, is relative easy, if you go to the right business what deals with it.

Do u carry a legal knife during your daily life or any other weapon? if not, why would u think beign allowed carrying a different weapon would help ya, the people who carry weapons are always the same types and those people dont need more deadly weapons than they already carry

Dwell on this: the 2nd amendment whiners going on about their 2nd amendment continuously should think on the wording. It states that you have the right to bear arms, not to buy them or use them. Also, if you want to stick the the spirit of the thing, use the arms that were around at the time of writing. You'd end up with the national sport of mass shootings being declared extinct.
