Three officers turned up at the home of Sir Benjamin Slade after a member of the public reported that they felt threatened by the image, which appeared in The Telegraph, of him dressed in camouflage and holding a semi-automatic rifle.
Baronet’s gun stunt backfires when officers swoop on wedding – Telegraph
Guns can be extremely scary, when the public has given them all away to the government.
It is so nice to know that the Brits have solved that whole Islamic terror thingy. Now they can focus on old white men with little dogs, who cater weddings.
Correction, old white, white men with white dogs, who cater white weddings. Double double minus bad. Lucky for him dog the has a different colored nose.
The only thing frightening in that pic is the thought of that ammo belt slipping down a bit.
Hopefully Stallone won’t see this and put him in Expendables 3.
How long here in parts of the US before a phone call from a ‘concerned citizen’ that they think you have a gun in your house brings the SWAT team to ‘check’ that your guns are ‘safe’?
Nice collection. An FN, Thompson, and a Bren.
Got to burn off a few hundred rounds with a Bren many years ago. Lovely piece of kit.
Good grief. Such unmitigated paranoid nonsense. These people have lost their minds, and it’s spreading. I still have hope that we beat back that anti-gun hysteria here, although it’s certainly not a slam dunk.
Someone should find out who the little concerned pansy was who called the cops and give it back to him. Tell the cops he is not paying his BBC tax or is building rifles. I was gonna say tell the cops he is a Muslim planning jihad but I guess we all know that wouldn’t get the cops out of the donut shops.
In all seriousness, this is precisely the type of thing Vietnamese, Cuban and Russian refugee friends have described to me. Many, many, many times this kind of snitching used to occur, it was the invisible hand of domination that helped keep tyrants in power over a public that numerically outnumbers them. And it is already showing up over in America. We have Swatting incidents. We have the newspapers Google mapping pistol licensees.
War is coming.
