Quote Of The Month

...comes from Leg-Iron, on the UKBA border controls for ostensibly 'offensive' weapons:
Stun guns are not legal in the UK. Unless you are a State employee. Just as farmers, but not cows, are allowed to have cattle prods.

Civilians have access to all manner of vile weapons and I count myself extremely fortunate to live in a Town where PCSO's have taken a tough line with blades on the street. A blitz on offensive hedge cutters was recently launched with free issues of community friendly implements.

Arguably more time consuming to cut my hedge with the plastic knife and fork set, I am in awe of this safety initiative for persons other than State employees.

(Has déjà vu moment.)
