[QUOTE=SoaringScout;29662251]Stop acting like the "PO-LEES" is evil or some shit. [/quote] When did I act like that? The police officers were just doing their job, they are just following regulations as they are supposed to. I'm saying that those regulations are retarded. [quote] You're bitching about nothing. Don't you think seeing a balaclava that looks like the typical criminal's balaclava next to a fucking bullet will stir up a little bit of suspicion. [/QUOTE] So you think that having something that could potentially be worn in a crime near a weapon should constitute as suspicious? Boy, I'd better make sure not to store any hoodies or stockings in the same room as my firearms then!

You're acting like they just raid homes because they see something resembling a gun and then when they are in the home, they beat the owners to death. And by saying the regulations are retarded is basically saying "FUCK DA PO-LEES." They aren't. People saw a gun that looked like an illegal weapon. Air rifles look similar to guns to people who aren't absolute gun nuts. Some people get a little nervous when they see weapons that look like they could, I dunno, kill people. And once again, THERE WAS A FULL METAL JACKET BULLET NEXT TO SOMETHING EXTREMELY COMMON AMONGST CRIMINALS.

[/quote] No Im really not actually, you may want to reread my posts. Im saying they confiscated their stuff even though the stuff had nothing to do with the charges. A balaclava, crossbow, a billhook are not relevant to illegal gun charges. [quote] And by saying the regulations are retarded is basically saying "FUCK DA PO-LEES." [/quote] No, by saying the regulations are retarded, Im saying just that, the regulations are retarded. Im fine with the police officers, they just do what they are ordered to do.

Some people get a little nervous when they see weapons that look like they could, I dunno, kill people. [/quote] I'm not questioning the report. If I walked out into the street with an air rifle I would fully expect someone to call the cops. The cops shouldn't have to call in a fucking specialist unit to identify an air rifle. If a trained police officer cant tell the difference between an air rifle and a firearm after getting a relatively close look at it, there is something seriously wrong with their training. [quote] And once again, THERE WAS A FULL METAL JACKET BULLET NEXT TO SOMETHING EXTREMELY COMMON AMONGST CRIMINALS.[/QUOTE] My gun safe (Which contains these oh-so-serious full metal jacket bullets) is in my closet, along with a good portion of my clothing, amongst which is a balaclava. Should I be under suspicion of committing a crime?
That's not even a .22 rifle they found, it's a fucking [i]air rifle[/i]. Like, everyone I know in the UK OWNS one.
lol sucks to be British there. You paperwork for a air rifle?
This is hilarious. Absolutely hilarious.
[QUOTE=Gubbinz96;29662927]This is hilarious. Absolutely hilarious.[/QUOTE] Note how they find a billhook (farming implement) and then in the end part put up a picture of a Kukri machete :v:
They found high velocity rounds, and bullet shells. The man had no guns registered. Logical though is "illegal guns."

I wear a balaclava when I do this, lots of people do up here, I use guns to hunt too, now just look at the main point of your post! And no one ever even said the police are evil so I don't know where you're getting that from, I'm just laughing at how over dramatic they made this look and ridiculous the laws are over there. hotel foxtrot unit we've got an airgun i REPEAT [QUOTE=credesniper;29663833]They found high velocity rounds, and bullet shells.[/QUOTE] They looked like 7.62's and yeah they probably had guns, and yeah they were probably breaking the law. Those laws are so silly.
[QUOTE=Aman V;29660518]Such is life in jolly old England. There was a news story a while back where they took some kids replica guns. Apparently they had to call in a "firearms expert" to figure out the gun is not real. [editline]6th May 2011[/editline] I can't tell if you're joking or not but if you think .223 is big you're pretty sheltered...[/QUOTE] Looks more to be .30-06 considering most of the time they have red noses(and it was not as stub as a winchester), and I'm just stating in comparison to what they found(air rifle, crossbow, and shit) that seemed way outta place.
[quote=Aman V;29660483]I have a shit ton of ammo in my house. That means the police should raid me? Great logic[/quote] If you watched the video, they made clear that the suspects had criminal records and therefore didn't have permits to own that kind of stuff. And it's England after all.
