84% of Brits want the UK Handgun ban to end according to an online Poll conducted by the Daily Telegraph. This will be a major kick in the pants to the Brady Bunch and to the anti-gunners here in the U.S..
Many assumed or thought that the Brits favored their anti-gun laws, or got used to them...I mean what other option did they have? But perhaps the tide is changing and maybe many are starting to see the light. Perhaps they are tired of being victims and tired of the nanny state that seems to be forced on them.
I found this comment very telling.
"Regarding the handgun ban repeal suggestion, one reader observed, “After all, why should only criminals be ‘allowed’ to possess guns and shoot unarmed, defenceless citizens and police officers?” "
This could be a turning point for the UK. According to the article, it seems that the anti-gunners can't use Britain as an shining example anymore.
