I refer of course to this particular story in the Times.
The man had it in storage, it wasnt being used and from what we can gather it was locked away. Yet the judge sent him in for five years. He legally owned it in the US
Criminals, lets face it the lorry driver who killed six people on the M6 got just three years. This man has done nothing apart from owning a gun, and one that wasnt even with him It was in storage.
Under a Libertarian government he would be released and given back his gun.

Sarah Palin: Wolf Genocide
Whilst I am staying at my parents, my father listens to Larry King on CNN.
Today they were discussing the fact that Sarah Palin will give everyone who presents a severed foreleg of an Alaskan Wolf $150. I frankly find this sick and disturbing.
Who the hell is Sarah Palin to commit genocide or even wolficide on this scale?
People are taking to planes and shooting these magnificent beasts for thirty pieces of silver ie $150 and she is complicit in this.
At a time when the big beasts of this earth are almost extinct she is the cause of more extinction
The wolves are necessary predators, Unfortunately she makes it clear that she would have been a very bad choice of vice president and she truly is a rottweiler with lipstick on.
This woman has to be stopped

Ship of Fools
You might be wondering why I have chosen this title. I was passing by the television seeing the news reporting on the 200000 Britons who leave every year for new shores.
Fools! Do they not realise that Australian and New Zealand driving laws are more draconian and more punitive and more databased than the English system?
New Zealand always says it needs more skilled workers and it actively encourages stupid Britons to go there. Why do I say stupid?
Here is a question for those people emigrating. Why do you think there is a lack of skilled workers out there? Have you looked into why there are so many New Zealanders and Australians in London? Do you realise that New Zealand would not be able to cope if all those with a New Zealand passport or heritage came home to those islands? Do you know that there are more New Zealanders living outside New Zealand than there are in the mother country.
Do you not know the reasons why they have left? One very switched on New Zealander told me when I worked there briefly that New Zealand has two main exports.
Sheep and Children!
Plain fact of the matter is that both Australia and New Zealand are police states.
They have a small enough population for it to be very easy to database everyone and cross reference them to their cars and any other purchase. They even limit how much you can spend every day. Sorry I don't like that. Its too much nanny and mothering by the state and it really grates when you have a windfall because you have to spend a week spending it rather than one day.
I was forever being stopped in New Zealand because I had not purchased and databased myself with a computer referenced driving licence and therefore when I bought a car using my international driving licence the police could not cross reference the car with its driver on its database so I kept on being pulled over. Is that fair? NO
Now our government talks of bringing Identity cards and I hate the idea. Why? Probably because I know how it will be used. You will be tracked and cross referenced everywhere you go.
If they are not able to do that with you then they will stop you and ask you why you do not have so and so card or why you are not on the database etc.
I intend to leave also before that happens but to a place where all these concerns are not even going to happen

Snakes and Ladders
In Lancashire health and safety inspectors are cracking down on those people without ladder qualifications. I.e. in order to install a speed camera using a ladder you have to have a certificate to use a ladder reported by the Times Newspaper here
