Knife Amnesty Begins in the U.K. today

While many might consider this as somewhat a joke, in reality it is a joke.

In the face of rapidly rising violent crime, the comrades in crime in the government must be seen to be "doing something". Hence things like this.

The joke of course is only on those who believe it is just and of any effect.

If the Conservatives get elected in 2009 General Election,then maybe just maybe,we might get our pistols back,airguns will be left alone and finally the end of the antis influence on the government.

Labour is supported by the antis,so that is why they are pressing for these laws-basically to appease their votes-however there are some Labour officials who like knives,guns,swords,replicas,etc,etc,so they are no so biased,in their views.

If Labour fails in their campaigns,the antis might not vote for them and would vote for the Liberal Democrats instead.The UK Inderpendance Party,seems to be somewhat more tolerant towards firearm ownership as well.

By the way,the Liberal Democrats are far worse than the current New Labour,is at the moment-and Labour is a bad government to have elected-in terms of private ownership of weapons.
 
I weep for the birthplace of Elton John and Cliff Richard.
One problem here,Elton John or Reginald Dwight,as he if formally known,was born in Pinner Middlesex England-on the other hand Cliff Richard or as he is formall known Harry Rodger Webb, was actually born in Lucknow India-and is of Anglo-Indian origin,despite what he has said publically,when he started his career-as a pop star.

An extract from the Wikipedia encyclopedia:

Sir Cliff Richard (born Harry Rodger Webb in Lucknow, India, on October 14, 1940) is one of the United Kingdom's most well-known singers.

Born in India, moving from Lucknow to Calcutta when he was one year old, Richard and his family moved to Britain after Indian independence in 1947. There is a widely-believed rumour to the effect that he is of Anglo-Indian ('Eurasian') descent, although it appears he has never publicly commented on this.

It is also stated in his autobiography.I wish I had an old picture of his aunt and himself-to post,to prove that I am telling the truth.

I knew this beforehand because believe it or not my grandad,was deputy- head of Howra station in India,during the days of British India-before the Indians got their independance in 1947.A guy called Victor Marrow,was the cheif of the station,before India got its inderpendance.

Cliffs aunt worked on the station as a vendor,selling assorted goods to passengers-who boarded the trains.Cliff did visit this station, on numerous occasions.
 
Oh Lordy

What will be the next household item to be banned, toothbrushes? (Insert your own joke about British oral hygiene stereotypes here.) If this line of thinking continues, pretty much anything that isn't a spork will banned. On a more serious note, may Crom keep and protect those of you who live in the UK and are the victims of socialist morons.
 
btw, its been illegal to carry a knife for self-defence or to use as a weapon since the 1950s.

Also please dont be drawn in by the hype of this amnesty - as the initial article states, this has been going on since at least last year and has only been given this prominence by the stabbing of a young lad at a school in London last week, which normally the media would have not given such prominence to, except that the boy was a youth footballer for QPR.

Oh, and Sterling, if you think the tories under Cameron will reverse any of these proposals, you need to smoke less weed - they (in their "tough on law and order" clothes) have backed almost every one of these measures:

During the Violent Crime Reduction Bill's committee stage, Conservative frontbencher Baroness Anelay of St Johns argued that a five-year maximum sentence would act as a deterrent.

Referring to the death of Kiyan and said they had to send a message that carrying a knife or blade was not acceptable.

"We should show that such behaviour is not tolerated and, if caught and found guilty, an individual should face very severe consequences," she said.

Agricola, I can't smoke any weed or I would loose my job and .Wouldn't touch the stuff,anyway,because it is likely to damage ones brain-so in my job I need a sharp brain,or I am of no use.I have seen what it has done to one of my friends in Canada and it has made him mentally unstable,-permantely.

If the Conservatives get elected in 2009 General Election,then maybe just maybe,we might get our pistols back,airguns will be left alone and finally the end of the antis influence on the government.

Read my posts again please,I said That they MIGHT,not that they actually will.Under the leadership of Micheal Howard,it might have been possible,but Cameron is too liberal in his ways-it seems.I know that it might not happen,but there are some hardliners in his party,that might support relaxations in the law-so anything could be possible in the future.We might even end up with licensing permits for them,then at least we can still own them.

As for airguns,Howard said that he would leave them alone,Cameron might not,because he seems to be a liberal big-head-who has used drugs.So he probably has smoked weed-and damaged his rationality.Perhaps I shouldn't have said will,because I underestimated Camerons new Tory party.

It seems easier to ban then to use sensible restrictions,for the law-abiding citizens.

In saying that the Tories are two-faced anyway and most of the shooting-community distrusts their efforts anyway.If we look at how they failed to support the shooting-community in the past and how they sent Micheal Howard visit,the various countryside meetings,to discuss shooting strategies-to smooth thing over.

The respective lobbies for guns in the Uk,should draw up licensing strategies for knives,airguns,airsoft replica,to stop any government bans from happening.But they won't,because they would think that it was inappropriate anyway,so the pro crowd might loose the battle,sooner rather than later.

Personally I do not care whether or not you actually think that I am talking rubbish about, the current status quo,regarding knives,in the VCR bill-hoping that Cameron will reverse his policies-if elected in 2009.The fact is we might get some reversed,then again with a liberal big-head like him,it might be somewhat difficult to persuade him and other like-minded members of the Tory party.

If the Liberal Democrats win the General Election in 2009,then we most certainly haven't got a snowballs chance in hell,of getting any bans or drafted-bans,reversed at all.Then,if this happens, we are pretty much finished as a nation of a minority of shooters and knife owners.

The point is,members of the shooting community(Including airsoft and airgun enthusiasts.)have not given up the fight,to remove one of the clauses from the bill,banning airsoft guns and some realistic pellet guns.

You might be negative about the future of our freedoms towards certain things,but the fight isn't over yet.That is why Cameron,needs to get a few home truths about certain things,through his big head.As for 2009,it is three years from now,so you can't be certain about the future-you can only guess it.

As for the Liberal Democrats,well no chance and I would agree with you,that someone has definately been smoking alot of weed and popping pills,if they said that the Liberals supported gun and knife rights.

Tennessee's "going armed" statute restricted carrying knives
on the person in public with offensive or defensive intent
about the same as that British law dating from the 1950s.

The "Amnesty" and "turn in" are the idiocy here: our laws
just advised people to leave their sharp pointy objects at
home and not run about in public with them.

Do the constables have a number so you can turn in neighbors
who defy the amnesty turn-in and keep knives in their homes?

What happened to Britain?

Ah yes,thats a nice picture of good old Winnie,holding a Thompson smg.To think that the man owned 2 Colt 1911 handguns,a Mauser C96 pistol,and other weapons,makes me think,what went wrong in the uk?

Even Inspector Thompson was given a Colt 1911,by Churchill.Imagine Tony Blair doing that.

Churchill must be turning in his grave now,at the firearm restrictions,in his once great country.
 
Maybe, but nothing stops crooks in thier tracks better than the sight of the Berrel of a Large Caliber Gun:evil: :neener:
 
I have such a strong urge to venture off 'The high road' and say what I really think about my country, but I won't.

This is one of the 'Bladed weapons' that was handed in:

B0006B0UYO.01-ASLXJ7AF23ZK0._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

No, I'm not kidding. Someone handed in a stainless steel replica Klingon weapon. Or, more likely, his mum did.
Great, I'm so relieved now that this highly concealable 5' prop weapon is not hidden in the pocket of a young thug. :banghead: :banghead:
 
Colt said:
Just out of curiosity, has anyone ever challenged the state and federal handgun laws by carrying a gun illegally, being charged, arrested, and convicted, then appealing the case as many times as necessary to result in a SCOTUS ruling on the violiation of the 2A? You'd think the NRA would have backed a citizen in such an effort by now.

[WI] Supreme Court Decision on State v Fisher (5/17)

Fisher lost :(

I'm not sure if he'll appeal it to higher Courts
 
Totally Pathetic the UK is no more, just a bunch of panty wearing Liberals.:cuss: :banghead:
 
Dateline London, 4 June 2011
"Britons were ordered today to prepare to turn in all cricket bats, as well as any heavy objects with pointy bits that might be used to cause trouble.

In related news, the official food of the UK is now Cream of Wheat, as it requires only a plastic spoon, and few British subject any longer have teeth."
 
Nothing new here this is old news ;) china did this some 1000 years back, no metal weapons, or edged weapons. Hence people started to use walking sticks (bo staffs) and other farm tools that were legal.


Now i wish i was in the walking stick busniss, UK will be buying lots of those soon, but maybe now a days UK people will just walk around with tool belt, a nice hammer works as good as a knife, or how about your do it all screw driver

Chinas people solved this problem long ago, open up a history book, now we just need to start taking away UKs civial rights and we have a new 1000 year old china.
 
Even the Police officers can get sued for hitting suspects,that appear to be somewhat violent-by using their nightsticks and telescopic batons.So can security guards,if they use them-especially if the victim is coloured,a woman or a kid.

S019, shot dead a black man,who brandished a replica semi-automatic pistol-that later turned out to be a lighter.This occured some years ago and I think the police were sued,because of it.Not that they did anything wrong,because the man didn't comply with their requests,when they shouted at him several times.
 
I have such a strong urge to venture off 'The high road' and say what I really think about my country, but I won't.

This is one of the 'Bladed weapons' that was handed in:

If the Violent Crime Bill is successful,then those of us who have them,will have to hand in the following:Mauser Blasters,Pulse Rifles,Stormtrooper rifles(They can be converted into a Sterling Smg and fire 9mm bullets-really they can!!!!),muskets from the 17th,18th and 19th Centuaries,swords(A bit like the Monty Python film:The Holy Grail.)replica flamethrowers(flame guns.),the Smart gun,oh and pulse grenades(People can scare kids with them)

Just think if this moronic bill is passed,then the replica arms company Relics,will loose profits from their ordinary customers. The website link is below.

The UK is becomming like sesame street, with **** like arresting 11 year olds for being "racist", or their ass kissing BBC "news". They are all turning into bed-wetters over there.

And what is worse is that all the brits that it have talked to on the internet always have this patronizing, arrogant, holier-than-thou tone toward conservative americans, because they think we are all racist for not wanting to let all the third world immigrants in, and they think we are potential terrorists for owning guns.
