It's amazing the British are able to field a military with such a lack of a gun culture

Lord Goldsmith, however, appeared to take issue with the Prime Minister's pledge to act. "We must protect victims and law abiding citizens," he said.

"But we have to recognize that others have some rights as well. They don't lose all rights because they're engaged in criminal conduct."

Mr Davis said: "They certainly do lose quite a lot of rights. The Government ought to make up its mind. The Prime Minister says one thing and the Attorney General says another.

"Of course all human beings have rights, but when somebody enters your home to commit a crime they give up a large portion of them."
Some critics of a change in the law have voiced concerns that burglars will feel they have to carry guns, knives and other weapons to protect themselves from householders.

That is how I see it to. Your rights end when your neighbors start. If you go around braking into houses you should lose your rights. You don't deserve to be a part of society doing that to people. Good thread.

Yeah, according to them criminals have rights...but honest citizens don't, that is why they disarmed the people.

Criminals do have rights. When they break into my house I afford them their rights. They have the right to cease and desist by any and all means I deem necessary.
