As Charlton Heston has retired from the head of th NRA It started me thinking: Is it a right to keeps firearms? Which is better the American or British firearms rules? I suspect you all have an opinion on this. Is is a good protection from crime?

We had a few tremmors where I was in Italy. Sometimes we get them in Britain but they are just mines collapsing or gas movement.

Black Americans would not have won their civil rights by fire bombing the Alabama bussing system, or shooting up segregated schools, restaraunts and theaters. Their ability to stand in a nonviolent manner, instead of throwing a cultural temper tantrum to achieve their goals, shows a certain maturity that the Pals have consistently lacked. I know its hard to stand and turn the other cheek, but thats how you gain the sympathy and support from the international community that you seek.<span id='postcolor'> But Black Americans hadn't had thier own country(or area) untill they were invaded and occupied. I know I would along with most other Britions resist forcefully any invasion and attempted occupation of British soil, it hasn't happened for nearly a thousand years but invaders would be resisted. Why does Palestine not have that right?

Please leave a message with your country, name of organisation, the region, the specific crisis and a number at which we can call you. As soon as we have sorted out the Balkans, Iraq, Northern Ireland, marching up and down bits of tarmac in London and compulsory Equal Opportunities training, we will return your call. Please speak after the tone, or if you require more options, please listen to the following numbers: If your crisis is small and close to the sea, press 1 for the Royal Marines. If your concern is distant, with tropical climate and good hotels and can be solved by one or two low risk bombing runs, please press # for the Royal Air Force. Please note this service is not available after 1630 hours or at weekends. If your enquiry concerns a situation which can be resolved by a grey funnel, some bunting, flags, a damn good cocktail party and a first class marching band, please write, well in advance, to the First Sea Lord, The Ministry of Defence, Whitehall, London SW1. If your enquiry is not urgent, please press 2 for the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps. If you are in real, hot trouble please press 3 and your call will be routed to Sandline International. If you are interested in joining the Army and wish to be shouted at, paid little, have premature arthritis in both knees, put your wife and family in a condemned hut miles from civilisation and are prepared to work your a**e off daily, risking life and limb in all weathers and terrain, both day and night while watching the Treasury erode your original terms and conditions of service, then please stay on the line. Your call will shortly be connected to a bitter passed-over Recruiting Sergeant in a grotty shop behind the railway station. Have a pleasant day and thank you again for trying to contact the British Army.<span id='postcolor'><span id='postcolor'> hoho

That might cause some difference in suicide statistics, but I guess its basically the traditional problems with alcoholism and isolation from other persons.

I live in southern Finland and really feel tired and depressed during midwinter.<span id='postcolor'> In Britain we absorbed it into our national psyche. After all we invented the umbrella!

I'm serious about the double barreled shotgun! The farmer would be good too, but I would really like someone to make the gun, 12 bore Holland and Holland, like ours.
