Shooting is my right

Shooting, whether it be for game to eat or  just for sport and pleasure, is getting a very unfair press in my opinion.  Shooting is enjoyed by a huge number of people around the world, but now unfortunately it is becoming increasingly under threat from social and political do-gooders.  Here in the UK a person can not have a hand gun unless it is kept in a gun club i.e. you are not allowed to have it in the safety of your own secure gun cupboard.  When are people going to realise that it is not the gun that is dangerous but the person or should I say idiot using the gun.  No matter what legislation the government brings in  these strict gun laws will not stop the use of illegal guns.  Street crime will not drop.  We are holding the 2012 Olympics and yet we may not be able to have a shooting team, how ridiculous is that?  I don’t have a hand gun and to be honest I don’t want one, but I do feel very strongly that it is my right to have one if I want to.  When are we going to stop this ridiculous nanny state.  When will the idiots of this country realise that man has been hunting his dinner since time began and I for one can tell you it tastes a lot better than anything you will ever get in the supermarket.
