That settles it.
Queen Elizabeth is the incarnate "Red Queen". |

The Queen has sod all to do with it, as the Monarchy these days is purely symbolic & a money making attractor of foreign tourists. Take what the NRA says in this article with a large pinch of salt, as it's full of omissions, inaccuracies & use of information out of context. Put it this way: If I suffer a home invasion right now & one of those involved comes at me with a hammer or knife, then he'll be met with a 130gr Sierra Game King & I will assuredly NOT be going to jail for doing so. The right to self defence is alive & well in the UK:

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
