I hope you can take comfort in murders and suicides being added to gun deaths to heavily inflate US murders by guns. Then again I forgot that people do not look at the details usually

Geesh, It seems odd I made that mistake but oh well. Ut supra, ita inferius

I guess if you had an assault rifle when they were illegal the police could take it if they had some reason to search your home. Now that Obama has some free time he may actually show up on your doorstep and ask for your guns... Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni: "You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???" 
Under Obama I bought a Mossberg 930, a Century Arms AK-47, and a Smith and Wesson Shield© 9mm. Last night, I went and bought a Browning AB3 30-06 with a Leupold 4x12 scope.
I never worried about Obama coming for my guns. I knew it wasn't going to happen. Now though, I do worry about Trump's minions, under some sort of fucked up emergency decree, coming for them. The irony would be great and terrible. "Cold dead liberal hands" comes to mind as well.

Yep, because those aren't AR chambered rounds.

I'm happy for that to be the case; and while I'm saddened that it took that tragedy to do something, I'm also thankful that I live in a country where the voices of people saying "no more" are actually heard. Okay, but they also made it harder for people to own other firearms as well. Look at all the nonsense you have to go through to own a simple fucking shotgun. I am not happy for it to be the case and we should have the right to bear arms. The opinion of the masses will change at some point in the future when they wake up and realise only the government and criminals have guns and that we have to rely on an underfunded, incompetent police force to protect us. Britain is a fucking disgrace at the moment. 
Who in the Government has guns? They generally think it's more sporting to leave that sort of thing up to the military and the security forces. But by all means enjoy your little anarchist fap fantasies. I wouldn't dream of taking them away from you.
