Geez Tac, every time you tell that story I break out in a cold sweat.
I'm not at all sure I wouldn't have opened fire under the same circumstances. Hats off to your self-restraint, though I'm betting you probably regret it.
If it were up to me, all British and Australian gun collectors would have gotten free entry into the US as resident political refugees.
The day will come when those governments realize they did a monumentally stupid thing, but that will be too late and won't put back any of the private property stolen under the guise of law. (Doesn't anyone in the British government remember a nasty little sonofabitch named A. Hitler or the weasely, appeasing prime minister who helped to empower him?)
I just don't know where governments get off assuming that they own their citizens and their property.
