Sport
The government has been urged to relax gun laws which make it illegal for Britain’s top pistol shooters to train in England, Scotland and Wales.
Home Secretary Charles Clarke has given special permission for pistol events to be staged at the London 2012 Olympics.
But British team members face having to do all their 2012 preparations abroad.
The British are so spooked by guns, their Olympic team can’t practice there. Lame.

I wondered how they were going to work their way around the Olympic sports. What a bunch of lame idiots. If any place is crying out for public pistol ranges and public pistol shooting, (by law abiding folks, not the gangs..) England is it.
So, if the Secretary can grant this pass….what other passes on firearm possession can he pass? Maybe we ought to be emailing requests for Texas CCLs to be honored in England.
