GIVE THEM BACK THEIR BULLETS

Britain wants its guns back - a Daily Telegraph online poll has revealed that over 80 percent of Brits would rather a repeal on the hand gun ban over various other "new law" choices. Read it & weep, Piers Morgan - S.L.


Last Friday the Daily Telegraph, Britain's most widely read broadsheet newspaper, issued an online poll asking members of the public which proposal they would like to see introduced as a Private Members' Bill in the UK's Parliament.

Private Members' Bills are introduced by Members of Parliament or Peers who are not government ministers.

The choices include term limits for Prime Ministers, a flat tax, a law to encourage the 'greening' of public spaces and the repealing of Britain's hand gun ban. Following the Dunblane massacre in 1996, in which 16 schoolchildren were killed, Parliament passed The Firearms Act of 1997, which essentially banned handguns for the atrocity.

But Britons seem unconvinced by the law. The proposer, known as "Colliemum" asked, ". . . why should only criminals be 'allowed' to possess guns and shoot unarmed, defenseless citizens and police officers?"


While the poll continues, so far over 80 percent of the 11,000+ respondents have told the Telegraph that they want to see the handgun ban repealed. The news comes as America contemplates its own new laws on gun ownership, with British talk show host Piers Morgan claiming to back a UK-style ban for the United States.

  1. Oh my; their first problem....they let the people speak. Hm, interesting that the first thing the people want is a selfish thing like personal protection! How dare those sheeple think about trying to be responsible for their own protection! Ha, really knocks a hole in the theory that the government is capable of taking care of you.
