Perlonker !!!, it's people who adopt that sort of attitude who have let this country become the dump it now is, the hand gun ban was a political sop to the public and has served no useful purpose. People who wanted to collect or legitimately use hand guns can no longer do so yet hand gun related crime has since escalated dramatically. Typifies the unworkable legislation foisted on us of late; the responsible majority being hamstrung to try and control the minority who will never act reasonably. It doesn't work and never will.
Ironically the hand gun ban should have rendered the UK as a non starter in the bid to host the olympics as we can't hold the pistol shooting events legally. Unfortunately that was conveniently forgotten so London looks like being lumbered with it.
