You'll get away with as much machine-gunnery and Grevious Bodily Harm as you want, if the whole of Europe descends into anarchy . Go fer it!

Has Lee's wish finally come true?

No machine gunnery. My lead pellet gun will do

IZ.

I'm getting just slightly worried.

But that's 'over het water' so not much of a loss

which is all very decent of them...but when civilisation decends into chaos i'ld quite like to have a hold of my car thanks.
(if only so i had something to set fire to later )

not that this will happen here because the english are too boring for any form of insurrection to spread nationwide and they'ld have sent in the army by now.

Which made me wonder, you didn't join the French Revolution, but was there anything May '68-like in the UK

Oh, and another update: A couple of cars have been set on fire in Antwerp tonight

And on that note, just heard the update of the news...a few incidents in Antwerp and in Germany, although Paris seems to be quieting down at last.

At all the HL people and their families living in these countries, just keep safe...I am hoping it will come to a stop soon enough or a rain-dance is on it's way, just to put out the fire!

MB *or could we just blame the planet Mars?*

the gordon riots were probably the nearest the u.k. came to anything around the time of the french revolution.
the most recent riot of any note was the poll-tax riots

First read the law, then buy a pellet gun You ain't allowed to shoot livestock unless you have a Model 4 or Model 9 permit.

Next time, just club the pigeon to death and THEN start shooting.

Or buy this

The guy where we bought our last bullets said it was okay as long as you shot 'em on your own property My dad used to have a hunting permit and that's how we got the gun, but that was in Holland and a long long time ago, so don't think that goes anymore

The duckies are cool though

Update on the Belgian fires:

In Sint-Niklaas, the town that had about the most cars set on fire apart from Brussels (I think), two men in their mid thirties have been arrested and have confessed to have set most (if not all) of the cars on fire, out of boredom

Grown up men, there you go

who cares, the French are revolting

fact!
