Petition to get the UK government to relax laws on airsoft

[NickM]

I tried to find this guys petition but it didn't seem to show up in the list of active petitions. However some of the ones that are on there are just batSh!t crazy!

He's had much the same response on FB too!

I like where someone pointed out that the age limit has nothing to do with airsoft.

Oh by the way, the one here and the one on zeroin are separate petitions as well, so that's two numpties in one day..

i know i shouldn't have been trusted with a rif when I was under 18, and kids aint getting any better behaved!

Ye, just noticed the headings are different, one is "Abolish need for a defence(eg. UKARA) when purchasing an air soft toy", which is laughable (showing a distinct lack of research), and the other is "Make under 18's able to obtain vrca defence/UKARA"

Surprised no-one on zero in has asked the OP what vrca is? Someone go do that!

Stopped having headings [longer than a tab] on my browser years ago, amazing how many site's still rely on it.

Unfortunately the law couldn't be tailored to say "well mannered middle class under 18's only", so it doesn't matter how sensible the minority are, if the law was changed you'd have all sorts of estate dwelling hood-rats running around with RIF putting the shits up the general public.

Although maybe they'd all buy molle-belts too which might keep their trousers above knee height

Ridiculous post - the current law is more than fair currently.

Only somebody looking to use a RIF incorrectly would post this. Irresponsible

With great power, comes great responsibility. Lol
