Hummm, I'm in the UK, more correctly B Liars "Ban'd-It" ****ry.
Shopping malls have started banning anyone wearing baseball caps,
hoodies and the like.
Yoofs now carry golf clubs (and a ball in their pocket) when out and
about, baseball bats being a direct incitement to get arrested by the
police....
Handguns, or more correctly E.U. defined "small firearms" are now banned
except for a very few exceptions, even though the rest of europe still
has them though now licenced and the Republic of Ireland has started to
allow them for target shooting again!

I should have added:

The "false and designing" man of the 1990s, Tony Blair MP, who got
himself elected as Prime Minister in part by scapegoating 57,000
innocent law-abiding people for the crimes of one madman in his speech
at the 1996 Labour Party Conference.

For those of us not in the UK, what's the 2 sentence summary of said
event and what law was passed against the 57k law-abiding people?
