because having vague laws allows the bending of them made easier and thus secure a conviction <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:-->[/quote]

Yeah if they are made by the present politicians, they are a vague lot themselves, do as I say not as I do.....prats

Considering the government's approach and plans for airgunners, I think this is a rather ironic typo. It'll get to the point where pest control will be guys dressed in camo gear running around fields going Shoo! to all the vermin...

Mr Blair, come the next general election, the chances of me voting for you ar about as slim as an After Eight mint...

INSIDE your car is not considered to be a public place like INSIDE your house is not.
i was told this by a policeman many years ago but i doupt that it has changed.

I'd kinda hoped this would be case myself, but unfortunately the class/restriction of the 'special' Certificate being issued to cover the TAC/Brocock issue will NOT be open to amendment - whether for additional TACs, or for other firearms (inc. FAC rated air rifles). They are a one-off for currently held TAC guns, only open for issue during the 3 month 'grace' period commencing 20/1/04.

I agree with Doobin. Blair's a jerk and thinks his pathetic policies will placate the general non shooting public (who are in the main a bunch of gutless sheep anyhow).

The majority of people believe what the so called "experts" tell them about crime, whne in reality it's all just reactionary crap ('scuse me).

The police will tell you that 33% of accidents are down to speeding, statistices will PROVE that this is acutally nearer 7%!

This so called "government" we have in this country manipulates, lies and cheats to get what it wants, and Bliar want to run the whole of Europe. The last person that tried that died a lonely old man in a bunker in Berlin in 1944. PLEASE God won't Bliar do the same?

NO WAY will I EVER give up shooting. I have a RIGHT to practice my hobby as long as I don't harm any one else. What the hell is wrong with Bliar?

Live and let live I say, and as long as people accept responsibility for their actions, then let people do what the hell they want!!

Now where did I put my Dakota T-76 Longbow?
