Target shooting is not killing the paper, nor is field target shooting when you shoot at knock down targets.

How many people were killed by the target shooters in the Olympics?

Re: The Right To Bear Arms

there is no need for anybody to own a gun in this country, but the banning of hand guns was done for the wrong reasons. Nutters who want guns will always be able to obtain them. You can just imagine the criminal eliment down in the smoke when hand guns were banned. Ha that Tony Blair as just banned hand guns lads, thats torn it, the bank job we had planed for Thursday is of, can't blag the joint without shooters, when Regan and his mob have still got theirs. The only thing it did was to disband our olympic shooting teams, who had to go over to France if they wanted to carry on their sport

Re: The Right To Bear Arms

i do think all police officers shoud be trained in fire arms and also carry a fire arm, i know not all criminals carry fire arms but i pretty sure you wouldnt get people attacking emergency services if they thought the police wouldnt be far behind and were armed,aslo a bullet in the leg would stop a fleeing suspect liek a burgular etc

the argument that if the police have guns then the criminals will have guns is rubbish because as it stands the criminals do have guns but all the police have is a batton

Re: The Right To Bear Arms

Hello to everyone, this is my first post, and i hope not my last. I've spent all of my life in the countryside except for university. Guns are a part of life, safety is no accident and to get a licence is difficult (Shotgun). The problem is people see Air rifles as less dangerous and there certainly not. Moderation is needed, the number of people i catch out in the field with airrifles shooting ducks and geese is beyond believe, at least 5 a week. We do need to ban guns, but not for everyone. A gun is a tool, not a toy. I think people should need to provide good reason to own even an air rifle.

Hope you are super fast. The picture in my mind is of you running hell for leather to get everything back in working order before the perp gets the upper hand. Good luck with that!

Yep, the father in question was more than careless. One should keep firearms out of the reach of children until they are age appropriate and can be taught how to use and respect them in a proper manner.

They serve to protect in far larger numbers than you might suspect.
