Ban all guns for civilians other than for farmers

[_V_]

Wouldn't it make more sense to ban murder, if it was illegal, people wouldn't be needlessly killed.

you threatening me, cloggie?

What I struggle to comprehend is why “sports” shooters are allowed to keep their guns at home? Why not have a rule to say if you want a gun you have to keep it at the location you shoot

Yeh ban 'em all. What are the main legal uses of guns anyway? Shooting poor little pheasants and other wild birds for sport. Bastards!

We used to shoot rats & Mixie rabbits but then they banned pump airguns with any power.

would make sense 24 hour security, safety deposit boxes & CCTV . Can be part of the membership costs.

However, it would seem even including this one give he was a firearms / shotgun cert holder - every single gun massacre we have had has been carried out with legally held firearms by licenced individuals.

You're not supposed to be able to get a shotgun without a good reason either though and I'm not sure how he did, he didn't live on a farm right?

I used to work on a system that held the shotgun certificate holders. I was astonished at the number.

Half a million was it? BBC covered it but I forget.

You already have to prove you have a safe place to keep it at home in order to get your license. It's not unreasonable for competition guns to be kept at licensed venues though.
