Keep the Shiny side up


Not content with samuri swords, the Brits now want to ban all "deactivated" guns.

"Typically, a deactivated gun has its barrel sawn down the middle and a metal rod is then welded inside to make it incapable of discharging a bullet.

The breech block - which contains the mechanism to actually fire the bullet - is ground down so there is no firing pin."

I'm expecting iron pipe and machine tools to be next on the list.

Can you legally own a steak knife in the UK?



Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum.

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.
