Banned!!!

Wow, those Gun Nuts can hold a grudge. I used to run an annual feature here where i would advertise the annual Christmas photo shoot of Santa and high powered guns at the Scotts Dale Gun Club, you know those wholesome family photo's of Mum, Dad and their children grinning inanely as they stand behind Santa holding a huge weapon.
Obviously being American i even threw in a bit of religion that nothing says peace and goodwill to all men quite like an AK47, the gun baby Jesus himself would ask for and even gave them a free byline, 'Putting the fun back into fundamentalist Christian' but were they grateful? Hell no, they banned me from visiting their website.
Scotts Dale did stop doing the Photo shoot back in 2018 when they began receiving negative media attention and they disappointingly decided that peace and goodwill to all men means not selling high-powered weapon of death that can blow a big hole in another person (or themselves) at Christmas and maybe, you know, instead of a semi-automatic weapon, as used by Americas most devastating mass killers, buy your relatives a pair of slippers or a pair of pyjamas instead.
I was reminded of the Gun Clubs annual Photo Shoot today and wondered if 1) They had restarted doing them and 2) If i was still banned after all these years and the answer to 2 meant that i never did find out about 1 so I have no idea if gun toting parents believe that the greatest gift they can give their child this year is to indoctrinate him or her into the world of automatic weaponry before they are able to walk
Anyway, if you are in Arizona and find yourself in desperate need of an AK47, grenade launcher or assault rifles for those last minute stocking fillers, pop down to the Scottsdale Gun Club, 14860 N Northsight Blvd, Scottsdale, AZ 85260, United States where you will be greeted by friendly staff who can guide you and offer advice on their Family Firearms Safety Course for introducing firearms into the home which is a slip of paper with the words 'INTRODUCING FIREARMS INTO YOUR HOME!!! ARE YOU FECKING MAD!!!'
You can also visit the website at https://scottsdalegunclub.com/ or at least you can if you are not an English Blogger taking the piss out of American bat shit mad gun nuttery.

ruling in the uk regarding self-defense, "In R v Lindsay, the defendant, who picked up a sword in self-defence when attacked in his home by three masked intruders armed with loaded handguns, killed one of them by slashing him repeatedly. The prosecution case was that, although he had initially acted in self-defence, he had then lost his self-control and demonstrated a clear intent to kill the armed intruder. The Court of Appeal confirmed an eight-year term of imprisonment."

breakdown of key conditions
> 3 men with ill intent and loaded firearms (how is this possible in the uk?) - btw, unloaded would be useless and stupid, and someone on the wrong end of a gun should assume it is loaded...
> broke into a home ready to do harm (conflict is very likely when a crime is conducted in a home, and the occupant was not out attracting or seeking trouble, and the criminals had guns because they expected conflict)
> a law abiding person (no gun), minding their own business in their home, is forced to defend themselves with a freaking medieval weapon (thank you leftists)
> the home owner gets sentenced to prison for 8 years because leftists think he should have stopped fighting once the person he killed was "subdued", because you are expected to have complete emotional control in combat...

only pathetic, leftist, pacifists would enable a justice system such that a person, minding their own business, in their home, is forced to defend self and home (and potentially others), then goes to prison because he slashed one too many times...

only leftists would think that once a criminal that unprovokedly attacked you in your home, with 2 abettors, all with loaded, illegal firearms has been disarmed (potentially literally with a sword) that you need to stop your defense and be nice to the would be killer... does the law also require you to render aid to the would be murderer/rapist?

stupid leftists
stupid brits

the problem with uk law is that it often, and critically, references "reasonableness".

this is a problem in a nation where a jury could be dominated by leftists (who apparently think that self-defense is unreasonable), because such a jury might well think you should be nice to an attacker in hopes that being nice will change the attacker's behavior.

in other words, leftists in the uk enable criminals to conduct criminal behavior by expecting non-criminals to capitulate and even empathize with the criminals.

this is as dangerous to your personal safety as being ruled by a king.

i was introduced to guns when i entered first grade - at age 5. my grandfather and dad taught me how to shoot a .22 pistol with .22 shorts and rat shot.

i introduce my daughters at age 10. both have licenses to carry. they'll shoot your eyes if you mess with em.

Security guard at the entrance of the building and burglar alarm. Amazing inventions, save us having bat shit crazy gun laws and having to use gun nut loopy excuses because you live in such a nation that you take guns to the beach. To the beach!!!

Oh boy, handing killing machines to children. And you probably see that as normal. What a country!

security guard? for every home? what about when you aren't home? apparently some people don't have a security guard or a burglar alarm, just a sword... or perhaps the 3 gunmen disabled or simply ignored the alarm... alas, lame response from you. but hey, at least you tried for a change.

"bat shit crazy", what happened to your professional standard. i believe when i use such words you respond with something akin to "classy"...

"...you probably see that as normal...". you don't have a very good memory and/or you are just plain ignorant. since you won't read what i shared, do some actual research - read a report by an anti-gun expert in the US, then read a report by a pro-gun expert in the US, then try to find an expert on gun ownership in the US that is neutral. you should find that:
> a small percentage of homes have a gun
> far less than 1% carry a gun with them outside of home
> the odds of being shot in America are 7 in 100,000 (the uk which HAS NO GUNS allegedly is 3 in 100,000 - near meaningless difference 4/100,000 = 0.000004)
> the majority of gun violence in America is drug gang members shooting rival drug gang members
> most shootings in America are concentrated in 12 or 15 areas of the nation - which is much larger geographically and population wise than the uk (most shootings are in inner cities where the drug gangs are concentrated. places like chicago, baltimore, st louis)
> most shootings are blacks in drug gangs shooting other blacks in rival drug gangs
> high on the list are hispanic (from honduras, columbia, mexico, venezuela) drug gang members shooting other hispanics in rival drug gangs. most of them are here illegally on top of being violent criminals - thank you leftists, the democrat party, and joe biden

in other words, the problem in America is illicit drugs. which by the way are illegal... seems that law and law enforcement isn't enough to stop drug trafficking... the vast majority of US gun violence is directly related to drug trafficking...
