If they want to sort out the gun problem, here's an idea; let the people WITH GUNS fight the people WITHOUT GUNS, and let's see who wins?

Wow you're right that's totally a good way to solve political issues
About as useful as letting all the rapists out to rape their victims again to prove a null point :/Quote:

Then from such a law you can build self-defence laws, where you can protect yourself, others or your own property using a "fire arm" on your own property, perhaps adding property you have permission on but this would cause difficulties involving permissions and evidence in court. Then you also get the problem of transporting guns - would a car be seen as private property or because it's not static like a house it loses such a quality? Would a new law even solve gun problems? People already own automatics and the black market over in the US must be rife with (more) dangerous guns.
Perhaps we should be thankful we have no use for mass private gun ownership in the UK - it's less confusing :P
Yes. They are trying to an assault rifle ban, which will spark a second revolution. Guns defend liberty from the tyranny (The government is corrupt). Look what happened to the jews, they were disarmed and millions got killed.
Nearly all tyrants have banned guns as soon as they swept into office because they know, and it's very simple, that a disarmed people are a people that can be enslaved. But somehow in the west we have this strange sort of soft headedness where people actually believe that just because we get to vote every 4 years for identical state-funded parties and that our leaders don't wear an army uniform and sport a silly moustache - that somehow we're becoming more free and will continue to be immune from tyranny.Quote:

I only wish that people would stand up for their rights and deny the ID check, but might of included an illegal detainment and nobody wants to deal with that, instead people want to do what is the easiest. People are slaves, and they don't see it this way.Quote:

These are just my thoughts on how it could be controlled and not totally outlawed.
These laws would only effect law abiding citizens. Criminals would still be able to get their hands on Pistol/Rifles and not follow any background checks if they had a friend that was completely clean in the background check and got it for them, and then destroyed the serial number so it wouldn't trace it back to the original owner.Quote:
