But wait, how could this happen? Anyone with a brain knows that when guns are banned society becomes a utopia where no-one would even conceive the idea of commiting a crime?

And all this a couple years before Britain descended in chaos for several days last summer and sales of baseball bats for self defense sky rocketed. Can't help but think when a group of thugs bust into your house you'll want to be better armed than a wooden stick.

Britain banned handguns after the Dunblane massacre, an incident horribly similar to what happened in Connecticut last Friday. If we go with the knee-jerk reaction, do you really think we'll be better off?


this just tells me that the british goverment just wanted to take firearms out of the hands of its people and make the into slaves under their goverment. it makes it alot easier when you cant do anything at all about your goverment when they become tyrannical.
