Sir, you are aware, I assume, that almost 3000 [three thousand] subjects of the United Kingdom also have a CCW permit? They - police and prison officers present and retired, members of the judiciary and NIA, certain local counsellors and former members of the UDR - all carry a firearm in order to preserve their lives, and as such, would not be dangerous except to their would-be killers. I, too, carried on a daily basis in NI when out of uniform. I was determined to be VERY dangerous to any threat that came MY way.
