This guy probably spent his entire life dedicated to something he really enjoyed. He probably spent countless thousands of dollars creating this work of art, that honestly should have been made into a museum, and then one day faggot police show up and destroy all of it.

This is why Bongland pisses its pants at the sight of a weapon, because British police are such huge pussies that they are rendered completely ineffective if the criminal possesses even a basic blunt weapon.

If you think your police have it bad with BLM you have no idea.

It's not that pur police are pussies, far from it in the case of the Met, but they're hamstrung by bullshit nanny statism. They have a set of approved restraint techniques they have to use or they risk being prosecuted for assault; one of my jitsu traiking partners is police and we drilled them for fun, needless to say i eacaped every time. Police doctrine is to swarm criminals so they can restrain them without hurting them. Pay attention America, this is the future for your police if your left get their way.

On the UK and weapons; our history of firearms ownership is literally "The Second Amendment: Why It Is Good".

Way way way back when, talking mid 1800s, you had dissident groups like Chartists and later Marxists that were organising riots because they disagreed with government policy. Personal ownership of weapons began to be limited in law to prevent these groups arming themselves.

Fast forward to WW1 and lots ofen were returning home with firearms. The government at the time didn't like that civilians were as well armed as the military and put in place stricter laws; the 1920 firearms act. Again, lots of unrest in the working class at this time so the government wanted them disarmed.

Final nail was Dunblane when Tony Blair's retarded government successfully banned handgun ownership on a wave of public knee jerk. Since then gun ownership in the UK has been demonised.

>Cliffs:
-UK government has always hated an armed public
-has systematically disarmed us over hundreds of years, fearing rebellion
-media has demonised gun ownership and brainwashed UK citizens into passive cukks

I have literally just had someone use the '33,000 GUN DEATHS A YEAR' line on me and is refusing to understand that once you strip away suicides and accidents, you get less that 10,000 murders and that number is dropping every year. And if you removed gang violence caused murders, that would drop to less than a 1000 deaths a year.

Why can't people understand basic fucking logic?

And that's the worst thing about it all.

I would gladly, in an ideal world, if it actually did anything, support gun control and licensing. Because in this ideal world, there wouldn't be any misreable bastards who want to ban guns for ideological reasons and it would be fine.

But not only does gun control not actually DO anything to prevent crime or murder, but it actually makes it WORSE AND destroys the gun trade and makes it harder for law abiding people to acquire firearms. Not to mention you might just have a certain kind of gun banned 'because muh feelings' like what the EU is trying to do. And all licensing does is put obstacles in your path and means that the police know who's door to kick down when they inevitably come for the other guns.

What annoys me is liberal Americans holding up the UK as an example. Yes, of course our gun crime is significantly lower not due to our restrictive guns laws, but because there really aren't that many guns and there never have been. Our two countries are not in the slightest comparable.

It just gives more perceived validity to the morons who think UK gun laws aren't strict enough.

Mass shootings that the media is interested in (ie nonblack middle class male vs. school, mall, etc) have seen an increase since about 2007/08, and are much more common than 50 years ago.

Mass shootings as in gang violence that nobody cares about has actually gone down since the past decade, I don't know where it stands vs gang violence 50 years ago.

No, it's because a Hawker Hunter crashed in the worst airshow disaster in the UK since the 1950s and the first one involving a jet so the CAA put restrictions on all vintage jet aircraft prohibiting them from doing anything by flying straight at air shows.

You know how organisations work? There's a set of procedures and such that they follow.

Someone called the police and probably said something like 'THERE'S BULLETS HERE' without describing how many bullets. When there's caches of ammunition found, you need EOD because very often you have hand grenades or something that Dad brought back from the war that isn't stable. Then the Police try to play it up because they want to be seen as badasses and most people don't know shit about guns.

This 2bh.

Policing in the UK is incredibly procedure based. We had some CS gas left in our training hall and called the police asking what to do with it. Pepper spray and similar aerosols are classed as handguns here so despite i being nearly empty we had to wait for firearms officers to come and take it away, regular police wouldn't do it and once we asked them wouldn 't let us throw it away.

Not technically, but as good as.

You can own one on a Section 5 license, which is only given out in very rare cases and almost exclusively to gun traders. It's an effective ban for civilians, i don't think one has ever been issued to a regular person.

You can own a 'handgun' if it meets minimum length regs, pic related abortions.

Yes. If a copper sees you carrying a huge Maglite around and suspects you of wanting to use it as a club - even in SD - they can arrest you.

Not many would, but the stupid law still stands. You are not allowed ANY form of weapon at all.
>>
>>28039179
>>28039179
The problem is that anything can be an offensive weapon if a police officer says it is. This doesn't mean that you can't carry anything, I frequently carry a big sheath knife and a billhook on me and I take public transport to the range with my guns. But it puts all the power in the police's hands. Which is the reason why people were opposed to setting up the police in the first place is because of shit like this.
>>
>>28039148

>>28039204
Yes. And so if any police officer suspects you of using it as a weapon, you can be arrested. This doesn't mean you don't carry things with you or that they're banned, it just means that the police can abuse the fuck out of their authority. And as the Police tend to be Labour supporters and women these days...

Making an arrest without a warrant

After the introduction of the serious organised crime Act 2005, the police have been given greater powers to make an arrest without the requirement of an arrest warrant.

From this extension, a police officer now has the power to arrest any person that has committed an offence. The police office must have reasonable grounds for believing that the person they are arresting has committed the offence, is in the process of committing the offence or is about to commit the offence, and that it is therefore necessary to arrest them.

The police have justified grounds for making a necessary arrest in the following situations:

If the person in question will not give the police officer their name or address, or the police officer has reasonable grounds to believe that the information the suspect did provide was false or inaccurate.
To protect a child or vulnerable person from potential danger
To keep the suspect from disappearing
The arrest is a measure needed to ensure that the suspect will not harm themselves, or any
Other individual,
To ensure the suspect does not cause any criminal damage to near property or commit a crime of public indecency
To ensure prompt and efficient investigation of the alleged crime

>>28039193
Most shooters in the UK start when they're school aged, either on school grounds (big private schools quite often have ranges), or with the ATC/CCF/ACF in the evenings.

What kind of repercussions happen to police officers that abuse their power like that?

What kind of repercussions happen to police officers who abuse their authority anywhere?

There's all kinds of punishments that can be meted out from warnings, docking of pay, suspension, prosecution, prison time, etc. But whether or not they're brought into play depends on internal affairs doing its job.
>>
>>28039228

The whole name and address thing is one of the worst.

If you have a dispute with a private company and they're trying to fine you they call the police, the police ask you for your details and you can either give in and have the private company come after you or get arrested.

I'm talking about the US.

It's extremely region dependent. I live in the South East, so it's not unusual for elementary school age kids to be familiar with shooting (that's when I started with .22, .410, and 9mm pistol). But there has been a significant shift in public schools even here where talking about firearms and violence in any context is discouraged heavily. It's not brand new and it's not sudden, it really started after Columbine in 99.

It really is a generational thing.

My father (born in 62) attended the same middle school I did.

When he was there he was part of an on campus shooting club, and it wasn't unusual then or when he was in high school for kids to bring their own rifles for use after school.

When I was in middle school in 1999-2000 I got pulled into the dean's office because I drew a comic strip with some SWAT officers, threw it away on the way out of the classroom, and the teacher dug it out and reported me.

I think you're confused between a public and state school in the UK. Most public schools will push you towards cadets/scouts etc and almost all will have a shooting society.

I always wonder about this - what is the "left wing" to you? Because traditional "leftists" have always been pretty keen on arming everyone (e.g. George Orwell, rabid socialist: "That rifle on the wall of the labourer's cottage or working class flat is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there.". See also his Homage to Catalonia about fighting alongside the anarchists and communists in Spain).

I always feel people who just label the "left" as the enemy lose a lot of potential allies among the (admittedly profuse) so called "liberals" in the same group. I mean, have a look at stuff like Spiked and Jacobin - railing against the same stuff, but from the side of us reds.
>>

I think this is school violence in general though, not necessarily shootings, and accounts for non-firearm related violence. It's the kind of low-profile violence and gang violence that the media doesn't give a shit about reporting, but is fortunately on the decline from where it used to be.

>This has gotten a lot of stick, pun intended, but honestly, if you saw some 'urban youths' placing sharpened sticks, butcher knives and baseball bats in caches around a public park in the centre of a city while threatening another gang and telling them to meet them in said park would you not want someone to go and remove them?

Mother Jones and big liberal city newspapers are not great sources.

Yeah, this is why I think just ascribing everything bad to the left wing is a failure though. Rather than alienating just the authoritarian left, it alienates the libertarian left too.

No, quite the opposite. Moderators are easy to get. The Police practically throw the permission to acquire them for firearms at you when you apply for your certificate.

Many places won't even let you shoot certain rifles or calibres unless you have a moderator fitted to your rifle.

>Anyway, the form they fill out to buy a gun is, I am told by the bloke in my old gun shop, not even passed to the police. The shop is obliged to keep it on file, all they do is call through your name, DoB, address and make, model and serial no. of the gun you are buying. The police then run their check on the limited information they have ............... and there you have an M4 clone in your possession.

>Then you have private sales. Once you own a gun you may dispose of it to anyone with absolutely no paperwork or the need to inform any authorities. I have never done a private purchase but I believe you have to reasonably be sure that the person is legally entitled, not a nutter, criminal or wanted. Bear in mind as a white, english speaker I was, several years ago, offered a variety of firearms by different people just because I was either at a gun show having a look, or happened to be in a range doing a pay and shoot. I even informed them I was only on my hols and was told that it didn't matter I could just tuck "whatever" away and play with it next time I came over. Just to add - I did not buy one - I like my freedom too much, added to which prison food is terrible.

>Then you look at silencers and fully automatic weapons - both controlled items. You can more or less buy all the parts legally, the offence being to assemble the parts, or to buy the parts with the intent to assemble. You tube is full of idiots who have.

>The one which has left me really, really, baffled is flame throwers. You can own one, I have seen one for sale, working, functional, operational, why should anyone want to buy, or even sell, a flame thrower?

>Something needs doing and I say that as a shooter. The only people worried about any type of genuine gun control are people who probably would not be granted permission to own a gun.

AND THIS IS FROM A MILITARY FORUM

HOW CU C KED!

Because they chose the wrong side instead of siding with Based Hitler and the Joos took over.

What's with the one on the top right? I'm not arguing for Sharia and pedos and the like, and I'm no fan of political correctness, but what does some generic "hurr durr don't be a bigot" image have to with all of that?

Because they decide what bigoted behaviour is. Not you.

There is nothing communist about it. It's a Russian method to weaken and divide the west, they're still doing it and people like you who fall for it are proof of its effectiveness.

Go away. /k/ is a pro-white, Natsoc board, and if you don't like it then go back to reddit where your kind belongs.
