I've always wondered what the UK government would have done if the murderer at Dunblane had used a golf club rather than a firearm.....

Ownership of a hand gun is virtually illegal in the UK now; as usual, the nanny state visited the sins of one maniac upon the well regulated sport of many others. Now we see speculation that GA will be restricted in the US as a result of one disturbed individual? Time for a bit of commonsense, methinks?
