While I don't know a great deal about the British political system, I do think it allows for laws to be changed. As long as that's true, I don't think I could accept such a ban in the sense that I'd be okay with it and not be concerned about it.

Here in this country I'm amazed that members of our armed forces can't keep firearms on base. The troops are trained in their use and expected to use them at times, but are restricted from possession. Very sad. This isn't just the grunts, but high ranking officers as well. I first became aware of this in an article by then Marine Col. Craig Boddignton, since promoted to general I hear.
