The UK is dealing with the grim fact that no matter how strict you make your laws concerning guns, knives, and bats there’s one self defense weapon that can never be outlawed… and it has proven throughout history to be the most dangerous weapon any human canpossess.
Take a moment now to read this article published in London’s Daily Mail:
Britain Tops List As Most Violent Country
I’ve been training self defense seminars in the UK for the last 10 years and before that I trained UK/NATO Military Units and Special Law Enforcement Teams. I’ve had access to UK data on violent crimes that isn’t general knowledge.
It’s interesting that the pot has boiled over to the point where this is now a topic openly discussed in the media. Of course you can skew data and I’m sure there are political and media oxes to gore in these reports. But the fact remains the UK is a very different place than when I attended University as an exchange student there in the ’80s.
Same is true in Australia.
Last time I was in Sydney there was a law enforcement report circulating that combined the criminal violence statistics of the 5 most populated cities in Australia. Those populations combined added up to a major US city population (New York, LA, etc…) and it was shown that if those Australian cities created one US city, it would, by far, be the most violent city in the US.
Now I bring this to everyone’s attention NOT to point fingers at the UK and Australia but to show that this is the case in two 1st-world countries that have some of the most restrictive weapons laws in the world. But…
“Laws can’t protect you from the most dangerous weapon… the human mind.”
Using the law as your self defense option is a risky proposition.
This media attention should make my upcoming seminars in the UK and Australia very interesting!
As always, let me know your comments and thoughts on this post.

That's cause they're sheep cannon fodder, only good for taking in food and turning out shat. Ultimately their bodies will be utilized for the meat.
I'm fine with people who don't want to be around handguns. They can move to a state that has no concealed carry or they can move to another nation, if they see the threat to themselves as being very high.
I draw the line when they seek to impose, through government power, the consequences of their decisions on me. I have no problem with them choosing to rely upon the police and CC cameras to prevent the rape and serial sacrifice/execution of their family members. I don't know them , I am not around them. I have no duty to help them, primarily because I have no opportunity to do so. But that's their decision, because it is their life. My life is not theirs, however. They have no right to deprive me of the essentials without due process. And due process in this case isn't just a vote or an opinion poll.
What is an american opinion of this?
I think some of us would call that the Road to Serfdom.
And the same forces that rendered the British people into meat to be threshed, is working even now in the US, in the UN, to do the same.
And that's not something to be particularly proud of.

It's the MIND. It doesn't matter what kind of weapon you try and take away from people, if they're asocial, than they're going to try and use VIOLENCE on their targets. We don't need to shut off the gun, knife, club, fist, foot, rock or any other tool you can think of. We need be the ones using violence on them, to shut off the brain thats controlling the tool!
