AR177 588 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Anyone seen the Sun's front page headline on there 'Exclusive Investigation' http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4721772/Sandy-Hook-shooting-weapons-on-sale-legally-in-the-UK.html Basically causing fear and panic saying assault weapons are loose on britans streets - Meaning Semi-Auto 22 rimfires that look like assault rifles.... They then make reference to the 3 most horrific gun massacres in UK.... Hungerford, Dunblane and Cumbria.... now correct me if im wrong but werent they 2 pistol shootings and a shotgun shooting spree? Anyway im fairly sure non of them used an AR15 assault rifle. They now want a ban on semi-auto weapons in the UK saying another massacre is 'inevitable' The Antis will be using this against us forever! ATB Adam Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tegater 789 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Semi auto assault rifles at Hungerford, and I think at least a .22 rifle in Cumbria. I think Dunblane was pistols Quote Link to post Share on other sites

redtailhawk1 84 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 The bigest wepon in Britain is the car - kills far more people (every day) by irresponsible and manic people. Drink drivers, using mobile phone, unlicensed, and even kill with intent. Are they going to ban cars? Think not. The difference is in the main licensedGun owners are responsible, and it is usually illegal gun owners that kill. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
