Message | This is a very threatening measure, as it is aimed at denying the people the right to self-defence against criminals. Banning guns by no means increases public security in any way - in fact, it does quite the opposite by robbing decent citizens of their primary defence against criminals and governmental tyranny. We staunchly oppose it. Gerald Pirrie (GNP) Internior Minister |
