    I am going to get one to try; I will be interested to see how it is better at charging batteries, which is all that I want it to do.

    It seems that TG may have stopped selling to the UK for a while again until UPS/HMRC get themselves sorted out.

    The bulk of the problem is not due to UPS; it is due to those who prepared the "oven ready" deal not only forgetting to buy an oven but also not knowing what an oven is.
     
    Expect things to get a lot worse if the European Parliament  does not ratify the deal due to the UK government unilaterally altering the Northern Ireland Protocol.

    That would be very poor reporting as it is a 100% increase.

    13 states and DC require checks for all private gun purchases and two require them for handgun purchases only.

    Three states require state issued firearm permits for all private gun purchases and four require them for private handgun purchases.

    Therefore, a minority of states require some form of check or permit for private gun purchases.

    The huge gaping hole in Federal law is plugged by local rules; the exceptions are the states that do require some checks, not those who do not.

    One basic question: outside of certain extremely limited situations, why does anyone in the UK need to own a firearm?

    Just for the avoidance of doubt, I have carried firearms, have had them fired at me and have fired them at other human beings.  That is why I like strict gun control laws.

    Given that TG's UK prices change as the exchange rate fluctuates, I am not sure that they are skimming anything off.  If the item was put in his basket a while ago, there may have been enough fluctuation to account for the difference.

    I hope that his family can take some comfort from knowing that he was a truly remarkable man who inspired an entire nation.

    At the site I marshalled at, he used to turn up in SS gear with his lad (half Japanese) dressed as a member of the Hitler Youth, which was pretty weird.  His Japanese wife/partner would spend all day sitting in the safe zone not talking to the mostly female staff who were there.

    Someone else told me that he had been in prison in Japan.

    Read up on the Private Sale Exemption, sometimes called the Gunshow Loophole.

    For private sales, any person may sell a firearm to an unlicensed resident of the same state as long as they do not know or do not have reasonable cause to believe the purchaser is prohibited from receiving or possessing firearms under federal law.

    What you think and the facts are two entirely different things.
     
    You cannot stop the lunatics; what you can do is make it more difficult for them to kill people; preventing then owning a gun does that pretty effectively.

    You do not have to hear voices or see things that are not there to be schizophrenic.
     
    I accept that you are unwell and believe that you are delusional. I regularly deal with people who have mental illnesses and you are showing clear signs of something that is way beyond ADHD. You really do need some professional help.
     
    However, I have one, possibly last, question for you; if you are not racist, why do you list The Turner Diaries and Hunter as two of your three favourite books on blogger.com? These openly racist books were written by William Luther Pierce, founder and chairman of the National Alliance, an openly racist and anti-semitic white supremacist Neo-Nazi organisation. This does tend to suggest that your choice of an SS parade uniform was not made solely on the basis that it looks good.

    Yes, I have read them; in order to enjoy them, one would have to be either strongly supportive of the views contained therein or so stupid that the overt racism and white supremacism was entirely missed. Therefore, the logic holds up.

    So, you read two badly written books in which the protagonists revel in killing "niggers" and "yids" and hanging young white women who sleep with black men, and found them enjoyable and engaging, but are not racist. You are either lying or are just terminally thick.
