I would be much more interested in the right to arm bears.
Think of the kind of people who want guns in the UK, think long & hard - the kind of people with collections of samurai swords & gun magazines, masturbating over pictures of military hardware & wearing camouflage-gear to pubs - do you really want those kind of people to be armed?.
I fail to see what's shocking.The kind of people who.....................post on here for instance?
Many of whom, own samurai swords, knives, camoflage gear, toy guns, knives etc etc.
Shocking statement.
That's all good & well, but having an armed population does impact on everybody else.I just think i should be allowed to do what i like as long as it doesnt impact on anyone else.

So you want a gun solely to shoot yourself?
The mere fact that anybody would be allowed to have a gun would impact on everybody else.
Define plenty (as a percentage of population).I have some bad news for you. Plenty of people already own guns. How has this impacted your life?

Then I'll determine if "plenty" is actually the correct term to use.

It all comes down to acceptable risk, cars kill many more people a year percentage wise than guns do, yet we are all still allowed to own cars.
It's not just risk, you have to take into account gain/function.It all comes down to acceptable risk, cars kill many more people a year percentage wise than guns do, yet we are all still allowed to own cars.

Guns per head means nothing.There are 5.6 guns per 100 people in the UK.
There are 90 per 100 people in the US.
There are 0.5 mass killings per 10million people in the UK 1960-2010.
There are 0.8 mass killings per 10million people in the US since 1960-2010.
Tighter gun control since 1997 has done nothing to reduce gun crime, it had doubled by 2004/05.
We are supposed to of been ecstatic that it had been reduced to only 2/3rds more than 1997 levels when Labour were finally booted in 2010.
