This is a quick one, I was really unhappy today when surfing online and found out that someone had set up a Government ePetition to reclassify .22 Pistols as Section 1 Firearms. (In the UK all Handguns are pretty much Illegal to own even if for reasons of sports! The British National Olympics team have to practice OVERSEAS! Anyway, the reason why I am severely unhappy is because the petition is already expired (Aug 2012), the government need 100,000 signatures in order to consider the change of law - and only 13,012 People signed it!
Here's the link - the very unfortunate link:

British people always like to bash the Yanks for their claims to freedom, yet we need to look in the mirror, if we aren't even allowed to own a pistol in .22LR caliber - How Free Are We?!???
