Hello [insert your MP here]
I plan to vote conservative in 2017 (mostly) in the name of Brexit. However there is another topic that simply isn't spoken about in parliament - while it did annoy me in the past, at this point it is too much.
In 1903 Britain passed its first ever gun control law, a minor one requiring a permit to carry a handgun and restricting the age of purchasers. Which I fully support and understand
In 1936 fully automatic firearms were outlawed. Which I completely understand
HOWEVER - In 1946 "self defence" was no longer considered a good reason for requiring a police issued firearms certificate. This was wrong.
In 1953 carrying any type of weapon for self defence was made illegal. This was also wrong.
We now live as a disarmed populace, one that has to "run, hide, tell" when the worst happens, women cannot defend themselves if they're being raped, and other people cant defend themselves from thugs etc.
Criminals will either obtain guns illegally, or use other methods such as knives or vehicles.
Banning the right to self defense as on the whole greatly harmed Britain - In this modern society where we can do a very deep background check on individuals it is very easy to deny those who should not own guns that possibility, meanwhile ensuring decent people can protect their families and communities - EVEN if its not handguns, even if its just tazers or something. I just want the public to have an option outside of "run, hide, tell" which is so sad.
I have linked images of "firearms per 100 people" in which you can see the trend for homicide goes DOWN with more firearm availability, and homicides in England which as you can see has shown no benefit to banning firearms. Please take these into consideration and call for parliament (after the GE) to return to people the right to self defense!
Regards,
[insert your name here]

People were saying that about the US for 8 years, then you got Trump

You're really supposed to address your MPs in such a manner in bongland? Because you manage to write a perfectly reasonable standpoint as a mix between a soccermom's "muh feels" and a conspiracy theorist.

During all those 8 years we were all buying the everliving fuck out of guns and ammo at historic levels. The left got lucky we won the election not the other way around.
Americans still have our last resort. You bongs don't.

C'mon man. It was right in front of the British people the whole time. Americans fight tooth and nail against new regulations because they KNOW what it leads to.

I know but taking a defeatist attitude wont help

I agree its retarded, you think I don't want a Vickers gun?
>>
>>34158085
You need to understand how far Britain has gone, in the US its simply fact that many people own guns, here there's such stigma against it anyone calling for self defense alone is seen as wildly extreme let alone asking for machine guns etc.

I hope you aren't planning on sending them a picture of that chart, because if I got a chart like that with a letter I would be tossing that letter in the trash and ignoring it.

Interesting that people rather than wanting Britain to have the right to self defense would rather say "its too late" or call OP names
You'd think /k/ would support this

This is schadenfreude at the inevitable endgame of "disregard self defense, acquire Muslims" line of thinking.

I can want lots of things for the British. It means fuck all. The BRITS have to want it and have shown no sign that there is any backbone left in their country. Wargame a scenario where paki rape gangs were operating in Alabama. How would that play out as opposed to what is going on in Britain?
