(In the midst of london riots, there was among English people "a 5,000%
increase in purchases of baseball bats from Amazon." "Handguns? Parliament
banned their possession in 1997." One Brit "brought [police] a shotgun he
found in his garden. For doing this personally--instaed of asking the police
to retrieve it--he received a five-year sentence" which was suspended finally
after a public outcry. "Knives? It's illegal for anyone under age 18 to buy
one, and using a knife for self-defense is unlawful.") |
