Nigel Farage calls for UK gun laws to be relaxed
First topic message reminder :
Nigel Farage calls for UK gun laws to be relaxed
Ukip leader says ban on handguns brought in after Dunblane massacre is 'ludicrous'
Nigel Farage has called for firearm laws to be relaxed, calling the current ban on handguns "ludicrous".
The Ukip leader criticised the "kneejerk" restrictions on handguns imposed after the 1996 Dunblane massacre in which Thomas Hamilton killed 16 schoolchildren and a teacher before shooting himself.
The laws were brought in by Sir John Major, the then Tory prime minister, and extended to a total ban by Tony Blair's Labour government in 1997.
Asked about gun controls, Farage said: "I think proper gun licensing is something we've done in this country responsibly and well for a long time, and I think the kneejerk legislation that Blair brought in that meant that the British Olympic pistol team have to go to France to even practise was just crackers.
"If you criminalise handguns then only the criminals carry the guns. It's really interesting that since Blair brought that piece of law in, gun crime doubled in the next five years in this country."
"I think that we need a proper gun licensing system, which to a large extent I think we already have, and I think the ban on handguns is ludicrous."
Ian Mearns, Labour MP for Gateshead, said the comments were an example of "how extremely dangerous Ukip are".
"Families facing a cost-of-living crisis will find it bizarre that one of Nigel Farage's priorities would be to relax Britain's tough gun controls," he added.
The remarks come after Farage was caught in a storm over his party's 2010 election policies, which he entirely disowned this week and later described as "drivel".
The Ukip leader said he had never read the 486 pages of policy documents that were published alongside Ukip's manifesto in 2010, which included plans to repaint trains in traditional colours, bring in a uniform for taxi drivers, and ban offshore windfarms amid fears they could hurt fish.
After rejecting the entire collection of policies, he told LBC 97.3 that they were put together by Ukip's then policy chief David Campbell Bannerman, who is now a Conservative MEP.
"We had a manifesto – and I'm going to put some inverted commas around it – that was produced in 2010. It was basically a series of policy discussion papers that was put up on the website as a manifesto," he said.
"It was 486 pages long. I'm pleased to say that the idiot that wrote it has now left us and joined the Conservatives. They are very welcome to him.
"Malcolm Pearson, who was leader of Ukip at the time, was picked up in interviews for not knowing the manifesto. Of course he didn't know the manifesto. It was 486 pages of excessive detail.
"Eighteen months ago, I said I wanted the whole lot taken down off the website. We reject the whole thing. We'll start again with a blank sheet of paper. So there's nothing new in that story.
"I didn't read it. It was drivel. 486 pages of drivel. I didn't read it and nor did the party leader."
However, his attempt to distance himself from the documents was undermined on Friday, after it emerged he wrote the foreword to the party's manifesto and helped launch it at an event in London.
A video started circulating of Farage speaking as Ukip's chief spokesman at the launch of the manifesto in Westminster in 2010, promising "straight talking" about the party's policies. The Ukip leader also co-authored the summary 16-page manifesto that now appears to have disappeared from the party's website.
The 2010 policy documents – which also appear to have been blocked – detail plans such as capping the number of foreign players in football teams, bringing back "proper dress" at the theatre, scrapping paid maternity leave, allowing corporal punishment in schools and holding referendums on new places of worship such as mosques.
Other ideas included making the Circle line on the London tube circular again, investigating alleged discrimination against white people at the BBC and teaching schoolchildren more about the role of Arabs and African states in slavery.
Farage's attempt to distance Ukip from its manifesto of four years ago may put him under more scrutiny about what the party stands for in the runup to the May elections.
On Thursday, the usually assured politician floundered on live television as he was asked about the party's proposal to scrap Trident, saying he was not sure where the interviewer had got this suggestion from.
When told it was on the Ukip website, he said: "When it comes to websites, I'm not the expert."
Challenged over a compulsory dress code for taxi drivers, he said: "Do we? News to me."
And asked about a policy to repaint trains in traditional colours, Farage said: "I've never read that. I've no idea what you're talking about."
However, he said it was not "obvious nonsense" that he could cut £90bn of taxes and increase spending by £30bn, even though that would be "ambitious".

Because I am crap at fighting and would not be able to fight off a large male intent on strangling me.

I never said a gun does shot itself, but it can be made to trigger such an action by a trap, but again to kill is immoral

Yeah Nicko you were killing sponsored by the state and we all know that is totally different from trying to stop someone killing your family - especially if the person trying to kill your family was sponsored by their state - in that situation they are being totally moral and the only moral option you have is let them do their moral duty.

Maybe I could build an app for that so people could shoot guns (immoral) using their iphones (moral) - although the app would probably be immoral cause it is intended to work a gun even if I design it just so people could shoot targets?

Again self defense has to have justification if indeed your life really is in threat, which you know the moral implications of this.
Again I am arguing for the sake of arguing because I know you cannot win the moral high ground here.
To own a gun on the unlikely off chance you will need to defend your life is remote, where as a soldier in combat faces this reality every time they are in combat. So again the chances of you being in a situation where your life is under threat has happened how many times Sphinx in your life?

Why would you sharpen the handle, to do that would be morally wrong, as your use then is to harm with it?

You are right who ever shoots the gun to kill is immoral.
You miss the point though, you own a gun on the remote chance you may face such a situation, when the reality is the chances of that happening are very slim, thus not justifying having one in the first place. Again if there were no guns, why would you need to have one?

The gun is designed to kill thus its invention is immoral, it is still the instrument that kills, thus making it also immoral as well as the person firing the gun

Re: Nigel Farage calls for UK gun laws to be relaxed
But the gollowing points ARE in the debate...so here goes....
Didge recons humanity is the cause of "pest" and invasive species problems...which I agree with to an extent
he recons that we shouldnt shoot em....BUT has no solution to the problem ....just that there are "better ways", without stating what these better ways are...
he recons we should ALL become vegetarian....but without any clues as to how this could be achieved, just that "it could be done...somehow...
All the while of course he eats meat...therefore all his MORAL arguments are crap, because clearly he does NOT share those moral sentiments...IF he did...HE would be a vegatarian....
Presumably from the above what he ACTUALLY means is that "YOU" should be vegetarian, whilst he sits amongst his imaginedliberalist progressive elite munching on cow or whatever....
there can be no reasoned debate with some-one who states "there is a better way" and at the same time dodges the issue of exactly WHAT , these better ways are....
He clearly does NOT know of any better way, or is too scared of the possibility that his "alternatives" are so problematical that they would fall apart in his hands....
yesterday I posted a few...easy, straight forward questions for him to answer....
guess what....Didge the dodge ....dodged em.....
so here thay are again
OK didge I'll bite, since this rather tickles me
just give straight answers to the following
do we have pest species
are there some species that are invasive foreign species and pests
is this mans fault
(i'll save you the trouble here...it undoubtedly is)
Is "doing nothing" an option?
example....
some years ago a number of ring necked parakeets escaped from pinewood studios and established themselves in the surrounding area. they are now a serious pest and spreading rapidly outwards. they displace and destroy native species, they can destroy an orchard in hours, they can devastate your garden in minutes, they make an incredible mess. therefor the GOVERNMENT have placed them on the "general licence" as vermin. I.E no closed season...
what would you do about it??
Nothing
havnt a clue?
its mans that caused it...but no solution...?
or should man now act as apex predator and remove or eliminate if possible the problem?
and JUST answer the questions...without waffle.....
Didge recons humanity is the cause of "pest" and invasive species problems...which I agree with to an extent
he recons that we shouldnt shoot em....BUT has no solution to the problem ....just that there are "better ways", without stating what these better ways are...

there can be no reasoned debate with some-one who states "there is a better way" and at the same time dodges the issue of exactly WHAT , these better ways are....
He clearly does NOT know of any better way, or is too scared of the possibility that his "alternatives" are so problematical that they would fall apart in his hands....
yesterday I posted a few...easy, straight forward questions for him to answer....
guess what....Didge the dodge ....dodged em.....
so here thay are again
OK didge I'll bite, since this rather tickles me
just give straight answers to the following
do we have pest species
are there some species that are invasive foreign species and pests
is this mans fault
(i'll save you the trouble here...it undoubtedly is)
Is "doing nothing" an option?
example....
some years ago a number of ring necked parakeets escaped from pinewood studios and established themselves in the surrounding area. they are now a serious pest and spreading rapidly outwards. they displace and destroy native species, they can destroy an orchard in hours, they can devastate your garden in minutes, they make an incredible mess. therefor the GOVERNMENT have placed them on the "general licence" as vermin. I.E no closed season...
what would you do about it??
Nothing
havnt a clue?
its mans that caused it...but no solution...?
or should man now act as apex predator and remove or eliminate if possible the problem?
and JUST answer the questions...without waffle.....

Yes I am learning you look to kill
So it is impossible to stab or cut just to injure and cause pain without killing?
Do you know where you are stabbing and if you do not hit an artery?
Not many would or in the adrenaline rush of such a situation, the fact is your chances increase to kill using a knife more so than a pan

Hey I have just realized
The fishing rod is an immoral object because it was designed to kill fish by catching them and pulling them into air.

MEANWHILE, You could smack her in the face and around the head a few times with the pan end of your own weapon, Didge !

See you avoided the next point though as you cannot predict how you would react or if you could not fail to hit an artery, knowing that you know where they are, when the adrenaline kicks in
