Re: Man shot dead enforcing smoking ban

[quote=Mancie;453955]It's been less than a month since the smoking ban came in someone has been killed as a direct result.


Extremely sad news that this guy has died as a result of the original incident. Unfortunately the gun and knife culture adopted by the mindless dregs of society is NEVER going to change until the powers that be (i.e The GOVERNMENT/LAW)start acting tough themselves.
As a footnote, I was shot at by some young kids in the park whilst walking my dog earlier this week who had an air rifle. ( I thought that you had to have a license to posess one) They hit me but caused no injury other than to totally infuriate me.
If parents today are allowing kids of 8 Or 9 (which these little gits were) to buy/own/posess one of these air rifles then what chance has society got of ridding itself of the problem.
