Fallschirmjager667 729 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 It's really sad it has come down to this: http://www.amazon.co...ref=zg_bsms_tab Yakdung I thought that I had read that people in the UK aren't allowed to carry knives over 2" that lock back. I do feel bad for the law abiding citizens there. It does look like it has come to that Yakdung. I'm really not certain about knife laws. I found this Wiki on gun laws in the UK. Not all guns are restricted it seems. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_the_United_Kingdom Yakdung I'd be more focused on making a zip-gun of some sort, wonder if there are any semi-auto zip guns (not using pre-made magazines for other firearms that is). ever hear of Philip Luty? i believe he was from england Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nlacy 692 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 no matter where you are it seems that "civilization" is just one protest, one natural disaster, one prolonged power outage away from disaster. time to buy more bottled water, more bullets and some plywood for the windows so I won't be caught with my pants down when this happens in my neck of the woods. Right now I'm keeping an eye on the stock market. Curious to see what happens when the "haves" turn into "have nots." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If it will be a French Revolution, American Independence, Civil War, 1930's Germany, or Soviet era Break-up style is up for debate. Down another 500 points today....

Heath_h49008 442 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Thanks for the Philip Luty heads up. It's a shame the .gov both here and there spend so much time attacking guys like this instead of the bankers who robbed our entire country or the thugs burning London to the ground.

ktcm7271 999 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 London has the most cameras per block of any civilized city and has been disarmed for years. None of this violence is possible...right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

timy 1,185 Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Didn't we go through this once before: What the hell happened? I believe what happened was that the populace mistakenly put their entire trust (and rights to self defense) in the hands of government. That's a big mistake no matter what particular government it may happen to be. The difference now of course is that the British government wouldn't allow us to help their people protect themselves. How sad. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

getitat 609 Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hello I believe that true genius in communication skills are demonstrated by the ability to convey a concept in short, concise form. Take for example the following ten words, inarguably factual and authored by one of the political geniuses of our time: "No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -Thomas Jefferson Respectfully, -guido Quote Link to post Share on other sites
