OK great. I'd certainly like to carry a gun, so I don't get my head hacked off.

In what way would a gun protect you when somebody comes behind and beheads you

I think we should all be armed with AK47s...

Well that is just silly but a small hand gun would be ideal. If attacked from behind then perhaps a gun won't help.

If you don't want to carry one, that is up to you. I'd like the option to carry one for protection. I don't see how it is unreasonable to have a fairer chance.

Yes, quite right Paul, it's all about having a fairer chance. The odds have been stacked in favour of those marauding packs of beheaders for far too long.

Although I am not in favour of carrying a gun, it seems that some people here have ignored/overlooked the fact that some 'honest lawabiding UK citizens' were planning to behead a member of the public in our country.

Allegedly.

If found guilty, then the culprits obviously aren't 'honest lawabiding UK citizens' as you put it.  Can't beat a good old-fashioned knee-jerk reaction though from certain people (not you Carer).

So whats the chances of being beheaded here in the UK well it,s 64million to 1 and the chances of dying in a car crash is 16,831 to 1 i wouldn,t worry about it, just don't use the car.

No....Really, NO!

 

Whilst I agree that 'Guns don't kill people; People kill people', I also think that 'People with guns kill far more people' and 'Untrained people with guns will also kill people without design but by accident'. (I think some of these quotes aren't actual quotes, so if they go viral I claim copyright!).

 

But seriously.....NO!
