This isn’t relevant to the UK you yankee wankers.
@8ZJLRF43yrs3Y
Not a real issue in the UK.
@9LVFKKQ8mos8MO
100% no. That would be a horrific idea. Ban firearms altogether and make the punishments more severe.
@B223CKP 5 days5D
I think yes, but it should also be required that a guard has a gun, as well that the it is a right in the constitution to bear arms.
@9WQKFWK2mos2MO
Yes and I believe in deregulating gun legislation to allow more British Citizens the right to keep and bear arms in accordance to the English Bill of Rights 1689.
@9QHMH9D5mos5MO
No the uk should not have access to guns legally but more thought to protection within schools should be considered
@9QLYZD95mos5MO
No, but schools in high risk or gang related crime areas should probably have some kind of security.
@9PN53TQ6mos6MO
No, only the most highly trained and regulated professionals should be allowed to carry guns. Guns should also not be in public view unless absolutely necessary
