KFC Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I hope we don't end up having to carry the can for this one but I suspect we will, especially section 7. http://news.sky.com/story/1552588/police-warned-of-gun-massacre-threat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sha Bu Le Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 And show pictures of illegal guns just to re-enforce their scare mongering statements. They should be asking why are the licensing departments so far behind issuing and renewing tickets, could it be anything to do with police cost cutting by any chance.

ShootingEgg Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 The photo in that article is a joke.. At what point are any of the guns shown ones that we as licence holders can have... A story purely to make the antis smile and rub their hands together... There is always going to be risk when it comes to firearms, but how many people in the uk have licences and how many have gone on a rampage??? My force area cut the amount of feo's and now we get uniform turn up who have no idea on gun safety etc, one of my mates had an inspection and the officer gave him his semi auto back and asked him to make it safe!!!

panoma1 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 More empire maintainence/building by plod!.....I believe the police are playing politics by knowingly and deliberately sabotaging their administration and enforcement functions in an attempt to blackmail the government into reversing cuts to their their budgets! Attacking lawful gun owners is merely one of the means to this end and are seen as acceptable collateral damage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to catch the criminals it is often necessary for them to be even more devious than their 'quarry' and consequently, the trait becomes ingrained.

DaveyTed Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 The common thread in previous "gun rampages" appears to be the failure of police to revoke certificates after being informed of holder's unsuitability. HGV/LGV medical assessment didn't stop the Glasgow bin lorry driver committing carnage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
