Bobba_fett 117 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 david cameron has released a statement saying "there should not be a "knee-jerk reaction" to changing the laws on gun ownership" I didn't vote for him but I respect this as we can be sure its would have been a very diffrent statement from the former government.

poacher3161 1,766 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Its been said that his sgc and fac had been granted five years after being given a suspended sentance for theft if i was any of the victims family i would want a serious investigation into why he was granted these.I thought it was ten years before a conviction was spent.I got the knock back from a job because of poaching offences that come under the theft act but they gave this cretin gun licenses Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The one 8,512 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 There saying this morning he lost it because he was getting investigated for tax offences there was £60,000 in his account ,but yesterday it was to do with a will because the first one he shot was his twin brother then his solicitor . Just need to let the investigation run it course and see if they can figure out what set him off . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jackinbox99 41 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 david cameron has released a statement saying "there should not be a "knee-jerk reaction" to changing the laws on gun ownership" I didn't vote for him but I respect this as we can be sure its would have been a very diffrent statement from the former government. I was quite supprised and pleased to hear Cameron saying that. With regards to the suggestions about a yearly mental health / psychiatrist checkup for gun owners, im in 2 minds about that. Ive had a lot of psychometric tests and interviews with psychiatrists when I have applied for jobs over the years and no 2 have come back with the same results. The "profile" the psychiatrist comes up with is based purely on the answers you want to give and how the doctor interpretates those answers. Also, if for example I had a relation die and the psychiatrist asked me how i felt and i said i felt a bit down / depressed about it (normal reaction). Would he then mark up that im at risk of going on a killing spree because im depressed? Maybe an extreme example. But, you can see what im saying. As someone who has a close friend who has mental health issues, im not sure theres much you can do to spot them ahead of time. My friend (my former girlfriend) was perfectly healthy, happy as larry, then after knowing her for 4 years and living together for most of that time, one day she just had a massive breakdown and had to be sectioned off. I knew her better than anyone and there were no signs at all leading up to it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
