Unfortunately that would be impossible to do even though the Second Amendment to the US constitution is open to interpretation. There is just too many out there. Gun control and regulation does need to get tougher but the cat is out of the bag.

I think that's what they would like you to believe. A rozzer friend of mine tells me is dead easy, if you will excuse the pun.

Just soo sad this, sky news running it now. Kindergarden kids too... what on earth could possess someone eh? makes you glad for every minute you get. RIP little ones and teachers - parents ... once again let down by your own rights to guns and the crazies who carry them.

Yeah but you can't just walk into a shop, where there's a will there's a way but the average person wouldn't know where to begin.

Completely true... as easy to get hold of here as it is in America, albiet not as legally though.

In my City we have a gun shop, which sells most guns available to those with a gun licence. Why do people want or feel the need for them?? go figure.

I Do Exactly the same and feel Exactly the same way

They have a Constitutional right. A right that was written with a Purpose in 1776 and Amended in 1791 when it was a need to protect one's self ! Now Most of us see it as barbaric behavior but A Stupid group of trigger happy idiots see it as a "right" with no regard for the consequences. Remember there are billions being made in gun manufacturing in America which supplies the Drug cartels and the rest of the world. THAT is what trumps all in the states. MONEY Its time Someone stands up before more of these innocent angels pay the price for people like Ted Nugent to Carry a Gun !

I Hope Obama takes this cause up !

Yes, But In America, this week were 3 mass or potentially shooting incidents and how many this year?

Why Do you need the right to have Armour piercing Bullets?

And Automatic weapons !? What do you do with it ?
If it is for Sport, you leave them at the shooting gallery and go there , Shoot the targets, Turn Your gun in and leave !

AK47's ? Why ?

My comment was a statement of fact not a vote for the right to own guns.
