Quote from NRA's Am Hunter magazine: "The Original Great Shirt Race, a historic event in which participants consume a pint of ale at each of Bampton, England's, pubs, went off without a bang this year ... Police confiscated the 12-gauge shotgun used to start the race in 2000. Now authorities have seized their starter pistol, saying a savvy gunsmith could convert it into a functioning firearm. Meanwhile, special permits had to be granted so English handgun shooters could even train for London's 2012 Olympic games in England."
England does have their "English Bill of Rights of 1689"
"An Act Declaring the Rights and Liberties of the Subject and Settling the Succession of the Crown"
In it, it says:
"And thereupon, . . . , being now assembled in a full and free representative of this nation, . . . declare:
That the subjects which are Protestants may have arms for their defence suitable to their conditions and as allowed by law; . . ."
Be careful, Americans, many people that yearn to govern in the U.S. are of the same character of those that took away the English right to bear arms - even though it is declared as a Right in their Bill of Rights.
