LOL.

They're "heavy handed" when they arrest me, but when they arrest you they're "taking those evil guns off the streets".

:rolleyes:

These people are so hypocritical it blows my mind. :fire:
 
Mrs Eccleston, of Martindale Crescent, Longsight, Manchester, said she was given the gun by a youth six months ago and hid it in her bedroom in a suitcase above her wardrobe.
She criticised police saying her arrest sent out the wrong message to those wanting to hand in weapons.
She said: “If people see a person like me being arrested despite all the work I do to get guns off the street, they are even less likely to hand them in.

Her nose is growing longer and longer and longer and...
 
Why, the poor dear. Show some sympathy here, lads. This woman is obviously SOOOOO busy that when handed an illegal firearms she couldn't find a spare moment within the next SIX MONTHS to drop by the local station house and turn it in.
 
So her son "Dean" who also went by "Marcus" had a sawed off shotgun in his possession ... and he was shot to death.

Something tells me that "Dean" was a criminal who got himself shot doing criminal business and she wants to blame the gun because otherwise she'd have to face the truth; she raised a criminal :rolleyes:
 
She said: “It is disgusting. How do the police expect people to feel comfortable handing in guns when this is what happens to someone known as being against gun violence.”

First of all, maybe you should take this as a sign that you are NOT known as being against gun violence, genius.
Second, I agree that it's disgusting for someone to be locked up for 12 hours and have her home searched and family arrested simply for owning a shotgun the "wrong" way. Luckily, I can't think of anyone I'd rather have something disgusting happen to at the moment, so we've got that going for us, eh what?
 
Perhaps it's just me, but didn't we have a case almost exactly like this in the US in the last six months?

Same "somebody gave it to me" issues....

Paranoia-R-Us, perhaps, but is there a pattern here besides feeble-mindedness?
 
this is really hypocritical of her to hide a gun for 6mo and only to disclose it when something happens to involve the police. obviously she mentioned the gun because she was worried about police finding it, if the neighbor's burglary never happened, she wouldn't have mentioned a thing about this.

Sure......anyone can claim that they're just holding it for somebody, or waiting for a time to turn it in.......I wonder if those excuses ever worked for coccaine users, or illegal select fire pieces.
 
On the same page as that link was this one: http://news.scotsman.com/latest.cfm?id=4708193 about random violent attacks and rapes that UK youths are recording on video-cellphones. :barf:

And the Brits are telling us that their problems can be solved by banning guns, knives, and non-firing replica guns... :rolleyes:

It's hard to think of a society that comes across as being more gravely ill than British society...

"Mrs Eccleston said she was given the gun by a young gang member she refused to identify and kept it, while awaiting a police weapons amnesty."

Boy, this lady must have split personality disorder. She is against guns, but she agreed to hide a gang member's shotgun in her home. Strange. Very, very strange.
 
Wow, another 'the law is for thee' holier-than-thou narcissistic hypocrite anti-gunner.

Surprise, surprise. :rolleyes:

"Don't you know who I am!!?"
 
She got what she deserved

She was breaking laws that she and her ilk brought about. <smack smack> "What's that taste in my mouth?.... oh yeah Crow" hehehehe :evil:
 
Maybe this should be played up that the anti gun groups are part of a criminal plot to disarm victims. Where are the tabloid reporters when we need them?
 
And yet when we tried to defend our resons for ownership we were protrayed as gun nuts.

Oh yeah, a bit off-topic, bit if there's any antis reading this, the correct term ain't "gun nut", but when comparing our conduct to that of your people, it quickly becomes "good guy".

rant over, sorry guys (and gals).
 
First, she got what she deserves.

Second, IF it truly was an amnesty turn in period, and IF she attempted to turn it in in accordance with the law, she probably should not have been arrested.

So she had the thing in her home, where any child could have accessed it, with potentially tragic results. For six months!

So she's withholding evidence in a felony as well.

People like her are a danger to society and should be locked up.

I understand that Scotland permits private prosecutors. If there's any RKBA organizations there, it'd be a great time to pass the hat, because I certainly wouldn't trust the public ones to see that justice is done.
