[2aguy]

Police found 463 illegal firearms, including rifles, machine guns and an anti-tank missile, along with 200,000 rounds of ammunition in a secret room at the home of crane operator and parish council chairman James Arnold, 49, in the village of Wyverstone, Suffolk.

The haul gradually came to light as officers spent six weeks searching his isolated rural home, carrying out controlled explosions and discovering a secret room hidden behind a false wall in his kitchen.

I'm not a citizen of Britain and I feel like they can manage the society they wish to live in. I'm a conservative so I believe in letting them develop and manage their own laws.

I agree with you....merely pointing out that when the anti gunners say gun control like they have in Britain keeps them from having mass shootings.....I like to point out these stories and ask that question.

There wasn't one.....I asked you if you could answer this question...this guy had a large number of fully automatic weapons and lots and lots of ammo......all acquired and owned illegally without the knowledge of the police.......

What British gun control law....including gun confiscation, kept him from taking one or more of those illegally acquired and owned guns to a local school, mall, theater, church or government building and committing a mass shooting?

Please...I am waiting for your answer.

How do ignorant conservatives start threads that fail as false comparison fallacies over and over again.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

So…do you understand why your argument is ridiculous, ignorant, and devoid of merit; do you understand that when you attempt to compare two dissimilar things your ‘argument’ fails as a fallacy; and do you understand that you succeed in only making yourself look even more ignorant and ridiculous when you continue to make the same failed argument.

It is not dissimilar......unless of course you are talking about British culture vs. American Culture and in particular British criminal culture vs. inner city American criminal culture.....

That explains the difference in gun murder rates...since the British people who don't care about the gun control laws obviously get guns when they want them.......fully automatic weapons.....military grade weapons.......

but you morons think it is only because of the gun.....that normal, law abiding people become murderers as soon as they have access to a gun....and not one thing you guys point to backs this up.

Just £200 for a gun in London

Just £200 for a gun in London
by JUSTIN DAVENPORT, Evening Standard



Guns are regularly changing hands in London for only £200, highlighting the frightening spiral in violent crime, says Met Commissioner Sir John Stevens today.




He adds that prices are tumbling because gangs have been importing huge numbers of weapons as they become ever more ruthless.



An astonishing 600 guns are being recovered by police every year, but they admit this might be a fraction of the true number on the streets. For a little extra cash, criminals can even get hold of the fearsome Uzi sub-machinegun.



Sir John says there is clear evidence that gun gangs are spreading across London whereas a few years ago they were confined to a handful of boroughs such as Lambeth, Hackney and Brent.

Now police officers are being stationed in countries such as Romania to provide intelligence on drug and gun-smuggling routes into Britain.



The Commissioner spoke out in an interview with the Evening Standard after a fortnight of escalating violence in which estate agent Tim Robinson was murdered outside his Battersea home and a gangster was left dead outside a police station in a bullet-riddled car.
