Defensive Knives & Other Weapons Most people that carry a gun also carry a knife or other weapon as a backup. Finding a good blade is often harder than finding a good pistol or revolver.

Can the BGs sue the cops if they offend or hassle them. This would be the ultimate insult to the cop. I bet the english cops have a high turn over.

The cops are often products of their training, or they are following the orders of their superiors. I bet the cops are quietly grateful, but can’t say anything publicly with ending their career.

I think that people are starting to wake up over there, well at least I am hopefully! If our present government becomes a majority, they will be able to dismantle some of the gun laws here and set the anti’s agenda back by a decade or so.

We are finding that the Internet is one of the greatest tools to fight the anti’s as it allows gun owners to communicate and to challenge the MSM monopoly on news. We also go after every article printed that spews lies and even after any online poll that is anti-firearm. One the biggest hurdles gunowners face is themselves. The Hunters put down the Black rifles and handgun owners, who put down the hunters and target shooters put down the IPSC,IPDA types, etc,etc. The anti’s exploit these divisions, so it’s up to all of us to ensure that we talk with people who have different gun hobbies and make sure that we protect each other, rather than selling ourselves off one gun at a time.

True...but you have to have sheepdogs to begin with for that logic to work...See they started with sheep. Gave them Sheepdog clothing...and then called them bobbies.

This "escapade" is one of many reasons why I don't respect the Bloody Poms.

You know, there are a lot of parallels with what's going on in modern England with the 40yrs preceding the American revolution for independence. The House of Lords should understand that chaos and anarchy are just a step away, when the boot has been on the back of the neck for too long. The Monarchy removed its boot a long time ago, only to be replaced by the House lording it over everyone, in the vacuum. Sad.

Of course they do. They were shown up for the foolish, ineffective group they are. A society where the citizenry has more chutzpah than the ruling authorities? O! horrible.

I have said it before....I'll say it again. This is an example of only ONE of the reasons why the UK is quickly becoming a third world country.

Anyone who used to be a British Subject and is now a US CITIZEN should feel very good about their choice to emigrate indeed.

Sad, sad, sad

What's sad about this whole deal is the fact that law enforcement will be required to put more effort into apping this sword weilding fella than into catching the actual bad guys.

Makes you think that a V for Vendetta type of society is not far from reality in the UK.
