Just back from a week in the U.K.
Last night there had dinner with a WONDERFUL couple (leg of lamb, veggies, potatoes, cheese, dessert of course, Guiness totally British!) and the topic of guns came up. I told our host how many guns I had in the house back in the States and he said, Wait a minute ..
He rushed upstairs to his hiding place and came back with a standard, WalMart issue pocket knife. He told me its illegal to have this anything that folds is illegal. We are talking a basic pocket knife here.
I asked him What do you do if someone breaks in, attacks your wife, and you stab them with that thing? He told me he gets prison time, the attacker gets Community Service.
WTF???
I asked cant you protect yourself, inflict bodily harm? He says nope. Have to attempt to restrain the intruders. Cant injure/kill them result=jail time.
Vote Obama. Well be at this level about 2 years into his next Commie term.
Unfreaking believable what the U.K. has become.
