Britain banned guns for law abiding citizens in the 1990s......it didn't change the gun crime rate..in fact, it spiked for years after the ban and then returned to the previous level...and now it is going up again...
But when only the criminals have guns.....and the law abiding are defenseless...you get acts of barbarism like this.....It is a good thing these two "pensioners didn't have a gun..right?
Moment police arrest pair who poured boiling water on pensioners
The men subjected their victims to a near-two-hour ordeal in which they beat them poured a kettle of boiling water over them.
The pair tied up John Buswell, 66, and his wife Janis, 64, before repeatedly assaulting them and demanding money.
------------
The men both admitted aggravated burglary and causing grievous bodily harm with intent at an earlier hearing at Maidstone Crown Court.
They were also sentenced for a tit-for-tat drive-by shooting after they were found guilty of conspiracy to murder following an earlier trial at Chelmsford Crown Court.
-------
The two defendants poured two kettles of boiling water over Mrs Buswell and threatened to sever her fingers and gouge one of her eyes out, the court heard.
The judge also heard how they repeatedly punched Mr Buswell in the face and threatened to cut his ears off, and poured one kettle of boiling water over him.
They also threatened the couple with a knife and a hot iron.
