    Must be that "Gunshow Loophole" in The UK.......

    http://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime...-a3156386.html



    A killer who shot a man twice in the back for no apparent motive laughed as he was jailed for life.

    Gunman Shaden Cadette, 23, smiled and waved to his family at the Old Bailey as he was convicted of murdering Ogarra Dixon, 24, and sentenced to at least 27 years in prison.

    He shot Mr Dixon moments after they met on the streets of Brixton. (Brixton is a suburb of London)
    Must be that pesky gun show loop hole ... or the NRA's fault ..... even though this happened in Great Britain where the law abiding people can't have guns ........

    This is empiric evidence on the effectiveness of gun control.
    "And how we burned in the camps later thinking, what would things have been like, if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain, whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"

    The whole story is a fake.

    There are no guns left in GB. The whole country is a, "gun-free zone."

    Guessing by what King Barack has said about Indiana gun laws, he must have gotten his gun in Gary, Indiana. He was able to get it onto his flight back because everyone knows how bad our TSA is at catching firearms in carry on luggage.

    Just don't try to hide it in your crotch. They'll always find it there.

    Let's see; gun free zone (check), black ute (check). Obviously Globull warming caused the firearm to materialize in the shooters hand and the feeling of the gun on his skin made a psychic blast of evil that caused the poor young fella to flip out and gun down a perfect stranger.

    Damn. A life sentence is 27 years?

    Either they have a very low life expectancy (50 years) or they have some pretty tough prisons over there.

    He should have come to the US to kill someone. If it were a first time offense, he'd have gotten a 6 month term, with all but 2 weeks suspended, two years of unsupervised parole, a monthly, gov't paycheck, and an Obama-phone as punishment.

    Poor choices all the way around on his part.

    Cast bullet in amazingly good condition.

    As for Britain, our founders might not have been able to envision an A-10 but they sure knew why they had to kick the British out.

    My guess is that Shaden beat him to death with the pistol (revolver?) and in the process, hit him so hard the bullet separated from the case and dropped out of the barrel.

    I hope the prosecution didn't use that bullet as evidence to convict.... If so a good lawyer could have torn their case apart.

    I wish there was a picture of the actual murder weapon with this story. The UK and all of Europe is happily burying their heads in sand; and just like to pretend that gun control works. I suppose those terrorists in France bought their weapons from the US too, and murdered all of those civilians because of the gun show loophole.

    Nah. Probably Obama and Holder's Fast and Furious guns picked up in Mexico.
