He also started the false accusations against Lord McAlpine.

Complaining to Sky about him will get you nowhere. You need to use Twitter etc. to fight back.

I thought this was interesting from his twitter feed:

Assuming of course it's anything like accurate, but if we gave benefit of the doubt - it's proof positive that guns don't kill people, it's morons who shouldn't have them that do.........

If any of these anti's ever accepted that and said "you know what, people judged trustworthy can have whatever they want - lets just keep them out of the hands of nutters" then we might have somethign to agree on.

But alas, it'll be "this gets banned cos it's black", "this get's banned cos it's got a seperate pistol grip" followed by "it's all banned cos I don't like it".

Exactly!
Why also do these morons have such a fixation on American firearm statistics when talking about UK firearms issues?

That's comforting.
As opposed to "As of next week, anyone found with legal firearms will definitely be persecuted". **** ****

Iain Overton is a man on a mission going on his website and looking at the odd interview, looks like he has developed an academic driven global boogey man in his head about guns and anybody related to guns. Also looks like he has a similar line of thinking about guns as Prof Peter Squires of the University of Brighton (Professor do you have a UKARA ticket for that airsoft pistol you are waving about in an interview?), he sees just the presence of a gun flicking some switch in peoples heads and those who handle or own them are some how dangerous by default. He also going on the below interview reeks of petty class war when he started talking about the 99%

There is no way to reason with this kind of person, unfortunately he is also the type that gets asked for interviews:

I don't do social media, but, I've just joined Twitter purely to challenge this self appointed expert. Likewise, I implore others to do the same.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!
