By the way, did I mention that my name adds up to the Unholy Trinity of Satan, False Prophet and Beast in English gematria simplex (A=1 to Z=26)? This is just another of my many prophetic credentials.Philosophy Explorer wrote:Humor as in Robert Merlin Evensonbobevenson wrote:Well, at least we know how to spell "humor."Arising_uk wrote:See that's the difference between American English as the trade language it is and English, no nuance nor humour in the former.

Never a truer word, False Prophet for 'Satan' and the 'Beast'.This is just another of my many prophetic credentials.

Some interesting reflections on the thread.
1) In the UK firearm silencers are not against the law.
2) Bob hates America.
3) Bob hates himself.

No they aren't, but there are prohibited classes for the private citizen, for example, certain handguns and semi and fully automatic weapons,bobevenson wrote:But firearms are, are they not?

I guess you're neither a student of British history nor gun legislation in your own country, huh?

Re: Question: Why are firearm silencers against the law?
As usual you guess wrong. Pistols are allowed, would you call that a hand-gun? I told you boob, certain classes are banned so no, firearms are not banned in this country although you need a license as we don't want loons like you getting easy access to lethal weaponry. By-the-by, we banned 'handguns' after the Dunblane school massacre and guess how many we've had since then, none. Now how many school shootings has the US had since Columbine which was around the same time as Dunblane?bobevenson wrote:I guess you're neither a student of British history nor gun legislation in your own country, huh?

So is a pistol a handgun boob?bobevenson wrote:"Handguns were effectively banned in England after the Dunblane school massacre in 1996." -Wikipedia
Are handguns all the firearms there are boob?
Like Bill you really shouldn't think wiki the font of all reason, useful but not the last authoritative word.

Typical non-response from Kim (claims no relationship to Novak besides genitalia).

Re: Question: Why are firearm silencers against the law?
I know sentences ending with question marks scare you boob but surely the last ones weren't too hard for you? Come on! Show this much vaunted inspiration, barring this ask that voice in your head if pistols are firearms and if they are try very hard to work out why firearms aren't banned over here. Try it with shotguns and rifles next.
