Plus with the 'ambiguities' surrounding self-defence laws in the UK, its probably better that we're now allowed to carry
Its either hand to hand or knifey spooney here on out.

I don't know what that makes them in the classification model you just presented.
But, both my kids know the basics of how to use firearms, wrestle, box, and do Judo.
They know how to take a beating without melting,
and give a beating under various rules of engagement.
I have told them that they cannot expect the universe to be fair or give them anything.
And that they have to develop the smarts and the strength to be able to earn whatever it is they want to get out of life.
They know what death is, and they know that I, and they, will die eventually.
They also know that if they make a stupid decision it could cost them their limbs, health, freedom, or life.
They know where meat comes from, how we get meat, and they have participated in taking it, preparing it, and then eating it.
This is the universe. It is not fair. It will eventually kill you.
Humans are by and large a selfish and often violent species with some potential for kindness and compassion.
Get a dog, drink a beer, and enjoy the ride.
Because this universe is going to surprise you, eventually kill you, and kill everyone else.Last edited by Dr. Gonzo; 4/15/2016 9:02am, .
