Former Brit Mayor Arrested In Raid For Having WWII pistol

Not just a pistol. Oh no. A "live 70-year-old Nazi wartime gun". For people who invented the language, their journalists are certainly sloppy with it.

God knows what might have happened had the deactivated pistol fallen into the wrong hands, as it had so very many times in the 70 years it had been patiently lurking in England, or simply acted on its own volition, springing from the cabinet and shooting schoolchildren at tea...

Poor bloody England.

You forgot the deadly part!
 
In Canada he would get a mandatory 2 year sentence. How are we any different?

Valid point, but the early morning raid, with police dogs. Arrested and taken to the station to be charged...Really ??.Him and his wife are respected locally (former mayor and army reservist) A phone call and visit by the local 'bobby' would have probably been enough...By all means charge him....Its just the OTT way its done, while the real thugs / criminals go about their daily activities..

I find the whole thing ridiculous. The guy says it was deactivated. This is a serious overreaction. How does one firearm justify this size of an operation?
 
No, and I never implied that they all were, but the ones in those countries listed and some others would fit the definition by their behavior, especially the part of the definition from the Merriam Webster dictionary -
[h=2]big·ot[/h] noun \ˈbi-gət\ : a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people, ideas, etc. : a bigoted person; especially : a person who hates or refuses to accept the members of a particular group (such as a racial or religious group)



And by the way I am not a bigot, as I have friends who are moderate Muslim, and they even think the fundamentalist Muslims and those from those countries are fitting of that definition.

I now consider this subject as now closed and will not continue any further comments on this subject.

too soon?
 
As I've said so many times before......

Stick a fork in 'em, the United Kingdom is done.

I highly, highly doubt this kind of stupidity is what so many men and women from the Commonwealth fought and died for in two World Wars.
 
Looks as if the pussification of the U.K. is almost complete. They banned fox hunts recently. Next step will be to ban Jeremy Clarkson and Top Gear. Which seems to be the last dwindling piece of U.K. masculinity.

I think it is time for an other NFA donation.
 
No they generally go bat sh!t crazy over any firearm thing over there. There was a thread a few months ago about some British couple finding ammo in their pond.

Looks like someone's grand parent went into a care home and the terrified pussy-footing family didn't know what to do with his remaining cartridges - they were afraid to have them in the home but also very realistically afraid of turning them in to the local police for fear of being branded terrorists/criminals/child killing blood thirsty nazis or some other inane fluff.

I always tell myself I'm not going to read the news stories about britain, I always do, and it always upsets me. The whole country has very serious issues that have resulted in rampant crime, poor standards of living and frankly a stunted society.
 
If you want to see some brain hurting stupid, read the comments on the daily mail site regarding that RIP round.

I can't believe the Brits went from ruling the world to being panty-wetting sheep in under a century. It fair boggles.
