fpbI had already made up my mind never to visit America again, due to the fact that there are more guns than human beings there. I am a strong opponent of the so-called "right to bear arms", and I would feel extremely uneasy living in a country where everyone I meet should be expected to have the means to kill me out of hand in their pockets or in their drawers at home.

and then don't bother to write to ME. Write to newspapers. Write to your MP. Write to the Government, to the Churches, to magazines, to friends of yours who do not know that Soviet-style obscenities like this can happen, and inform them. Protest. Write to your local US embassy. Write to the White House. Make sure that this foul law, and the vicious agencies that enforce it, know that the public knows about them. This is not only an American issue: already the government of that country is strong-arming everyone within reach to adopt their "standards" of "security"; the people must know what this amounts to. I do not know what I will do myself, but I do know that I both terrified and furious. We cannot allow them to get away with it.
