If the Soviet Union could not disarm the Pathans in Afghanistan. The British have not disarmed the IRA for 500 years. How on earth are you going to prevent anyone from manufacturing guns in their own back yard workshops? Murder can be committed by golf clubs, knives, arrows, spears, chainsaws, axes, shovels, bombs, poisons and a variety of weapons. What will we register next??? The NRA support education and responsible use of firearms yet everyone dumps on them! Well people, Ignorance can be cured but Stupidity we have to live with. As for the Shits in society. we need to be protected from criminals and the police are not here to protect individuals. You are responsible to protect yourself, then let the police figure out if it was justified. Personally I think it is easier to get out of jail than to get out of a grave. I will keep the ability to defend me and mine thank you......
