And that's the point, we could take our guns underground and they would have no trace.
I can still see why I can't be trusted with a handgun though

Not trying to be critical here but I found your use of the American Police Officer pepper spraying the students interesting, along with the caption below "Legal for the Police but not for us". I think you should have used a British Officer there for the simple reason that pepper spray is civilian legal in all 50 States. Your use of the photo kind of implies that it's not if you see what I mean.

Or possibly even used a photograph of a gas gun or small keyring aerosol that are so popular on the continent and readily available. Perhaps this would demonstrate just how tight our firearms laws are and covers many items bought in supermarkets in europe and brought back by unknowing travellers.

One of life's mysteries as there is no justification for it.

Ah right. Yes, the pic's of a US cop, but given that it's my personal blog (as opposed to work) I'm content with a stock picture. Obviously I'm a lot more rigorous with the day job's images!
