The 'vast majority' of hand gun 'owners' in the UK are criminals. And keep
them for criminal purposes.

Well, if the Brits would grow a spine and stand up like responsible
American gun owners and allow people to protect themselves instead of
ringing for the Bobbies and praying, t5his wouldn't be so.
But what do you expect in Londonistan?

Do don't need a GUN in this country to protect yourself. Not that you're ever
likely to need to protect yourself anyway. It's not as violent as the USA,
although I do fear that imported US TV programs are making it gradually more
violent. The first step of course being de-sensitisation to violence, so making
it seem more acceptable.
