I rest my case.
Cant even be bothered copy-pasting the article.

Off to the range before they decide to close it.

hogwash twisted thinking, then again what to expect from the mayor as he has to win votes in the next election. as the pros tend not to make much fuss over things as the anties do.

It is really unfortunate that biased and prejudiced people are having a field day in U.K. and shooters and other like minded people are not raising a hue and cry over this nonsense in a well orgainised manner. if this rot is not stemmed firmly, the stupidity has no end in site.

STUPID. That's all I can say
Justice alone is the mainstay of government and the source of prosperity to the governed, injustice is the most pernicious of things; it saps the foundations of the government and brings ruin upon the realm - Sher Shah Sur, Sultan-ul-Adil.

I watched as all the television channels of the world showed the famous London Bobbies in formation retreat and break ranks as the unruly crowd of hooligans charged at them.

Had this scene been 50 years back, for sure these Bobbies would have held position even if it meant going down to the last man.

This is the Britain of today, who can no longer talk of Empire.

Somewhere along the way, they lost direction.

I believe there is a relationship in a country's resolve and gun ownership laws.

Take away a nations' citizens arms and you take away the very character of that nation. All that is left is a nation of slaves. . . . . and hooligans.

Just got an update from Mr. Vikram Bhatnagar (who has recently taken over as President - NAGRI).

http://www.issf-sports.org/news.ashx?newsid=1541

It seems that there was a large outcry amongst the international shooting fraternity and the organisers have been forced to clarify their position.

Cheers!
