Just think one day our politicians will finally decide to do the right thing and take away all those nasty guns so those of us with the bedside Knight set can be on equal ground with our enlightened english brothers in our struggle against home invaders.

How sad to see the country that gave us the Webley, Adams and Tranter must today resort to sticks for personal defense.

They should figure outna way to mount the metal base on the club making an axe, or you could just throw it like a giant throwing star.

My first question is whom do you think you are going to bed with that you need a shield and a club? Rosie O'Donnel???

Otherwise, I see it as a way to make yourself into a fantastic target in no time at all.

They'll outlaw those too, just like the steak knives.

I read about a guy in England that took a bat to some home invaders and ended up in jail for it.

They just want the avg joe defenseless, plain and simple. It is much easier to rule over the defenseless.

Its badass, who are you guys kidding.

Why do all British look like British anyway?  

That being said I have a 12 gauge in the bedroom because I believe in the Boy Scout motto.

In England, if you go to work, or the store, and people break into your house while you are gone, the cops won't do anything (but write a ticket) about it. This regardless of your documents or proofs. Possession is 9 points of the law; so 'they' get to stay.  If you assault them or physically mess with them they WILL arrest YOU. It's treated as a domestic dispute; you need to go to a magistrate who will schedule a hearing within 10 days.  About the 9th day the squatters disappear, and go to somebody else's house. There are hundreds of street people who live like this year round.  A long time resident of London area told me this happened to his family, which was why he now lives in US.

Reminds me of the old Monty Python skit about defending yourself from someone attacking you with fresh fruit.  

Maybe they were on to something.  It might come down to that after they get around to banning furniture,

When furniture is outlawed....

Well, your friends should have went and squatted at Buckingham Palace for nine days and then went home to an empty house. .

You lyin' sack a shit.  That ain't true and you know it.

LOLOL!





At least, I hope it's not true.



I did read somewhere that England still has laws on the books that it's a crime to handle/use a sword unless you are a knight.  LOL!

 The two piece furniture next to my bed is nice, and
its attached to a Remington 870!  Wood is good.

I won't go to England, they are a society who has been completely sheeplefied.  As for me, try moving into my house, and I'll build you your own, about 8' in length, by 2'6" wide, and 18" high.  First, though, since I'm a hospitable host, I'll give you a few 230gr flying ashtrays as "thanks for visiting" gifts.  Then I'll lay your carcass in it's own concrete foundation inside the house I'll build for you and place it where you'll have a 360 degree ocean view.
