The incident took place between 4.37pm and 4.45pm on Saturday 23, July at the Booker Cash and Carry store in Windmill Road. Shortly after 4.30pm a blue Renault Laguna entered the car park of the store and three masked men got out of the vehicle and approached the store.</div><div style="border-width: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The suspects then smashed the glass section in a door to gain entry to the premises and once inside began threatening and assaulting three members of staff. The offenders, who were armed with items including a metal bars, hammers and machetes, then forced the victims to hand over a quantity of cash from the safe. The suspects loaded the stolen items into a blue bin taken from the address and made off from the store at high speed in the blue Laguna.</div><div style="border-width: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The victims sustained injuries to their arms and heads as a result of the attack. The suspects are described as four men, all wearing dark clothing and balaclavas.</div></span></span></blockquote>Here's a video from Turkey where a store owner protects himself and others from a knife wielding attacker. Had he of not been armed, he probably would have been killed. In the UK, the store owner would have been jailed for five years for possessing the gun alone.<br />

Here's a similar incident from the US, but this time a young armed robber is subdued by a women and her pistol.<br />

While most shootings are reserved for gang disputes in major UK cities, the use of firearms by criminals is still very much present nationwide, unhampered by legislation against law-abiding sportsman and hobbyists.<br />

<br />
Had the two robbers have been faced with the muzzle of a handgun in return, it's likely this man would have been able to have subdued both perpetrators and had his property promptly dropped to the floor.<br />
<br />
Sadly, the rabid collectivist mindset plaguing this country does not approve of such things.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865947999105116002.post-28334026064654706282011-07-12T00:03:00.005+01:002011-07-15T21:08:56.583+01:00Man's nose bitten off by attacker in CamberleyA man in his 30s had part of his nose bitten off in an unprovoked attack by three men between 10.45pm and 11pm on July the 9th in Camberley. <br />
<br />
This incident highlights the reason people should be allowed to carry weapons with which to defend themselves. The victim was outnumbered, an often seen trait of such attacks, and was left unassisted by police officers who cannot possibly respond to crimes as they occur. The victims of such crimes are thus left to fight bare handed, at the mercy of violent attackers who arm themselves regardless of the law.<br />
<br />
In many cases handing over your belongings will not stop an attacker or group of attackers from seriously harming you. In such situations you are left to attempt to defend yourself, unarmed.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.surrey.police.uk/news_item.asp?area=6&itemID=14173&division=">Surrey Police are appealing for witnesses</a> - which, unfortunately is all the police practically can do after such incidents occur.<br />
<br />
Even a CS gas pistol, sold over the counter in France would have offered a chance for the victim to escape. Unfortunately these are not allowed to be owned in the UK.<br />

It is impossible for the police to defend you or prevent attacks such as these. Having the right to arm yourself respected in law gives a person the ability to defend at a higher or level degree as the force they are being met with.Currently criminals are ensured to have the upper hand.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865947999105116002.post-811696354385489602011-07-11T02:27:00.000+01:002011-07-11T02:27:34.107+01:00Man in Epsom stabbedA man remains in hospital after being found with knife injuries in Epsom.<br />

Even in France, self-defence pistols firing non-lethal rubber ammunition can be carried and would certainly help to prevent incidents like these occurring.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865947999105116002.post-24899149863601799302011-07-11T00:50:00.000+01:002011-07-11T01:04:44.500+01:00Teenager robbed by four menAs reported, a heavily outnumbered teenager was confronted by a group of four men in Thames Ditton, one of which threatened him with a metal bar. The men involved clearly do not care about the Prevention of Crime Act, and arm themselves in public regardless. The law-abiding person, who may need to defend himself is the only one disadvantaged by the law in this situation.<br />

<br />
Surrey Police said that the incident occurred in Sugden Road at around 12.15am last Friday (April 15).<br />
<br />
The teenage victim, from Surbiton, was walking home when he was approached by the first suspect, who asked him for the time.<br />
<br />
While the victim was answering three further suspects approached him and one of the group was carrying a metal pole.<br />
<br />
The group of suspects then threatened the victim, who handed over a number of items including a black Sony Ericsson mobile phone, an iPod and a wallet containing various bank cards.</span></span></blockquote><br />
Last year in Forest Groove, Oregon, <a href="http://www.forestgrovenewstimes.com/news/story.php?story_id=127077009134675800">a 55 year old man was able to scare away 3 muggers</a> by discharging his handgun which he had a permit to carry. If he had carried any type of weapon for self-defence in the UK he would be guilty of breaking various Acts of parliament and would likely be charged with a more serious offence than the muggers themselves.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
