21. Oh please
non LE Brits and other Europeans have concealed carried pistols unrestricted until the 1930s. There are documented cases of Bobbies borrowing pistols of passer bys when chasing an armed suspect.
It was the Red Scare in the 1920s. Not knowing the difference between settling differences and unprovoked violent attacks might explain why UK is a pretty violent country. If it were so peaceful, why are most knives even banned? |
