Dutch or German, rather than English. How dare we use the language of our enemies!

Apparently not. Although your love for guns would make you a West Country denizen which is the best kind of denizen.

Is it just me, or are you currently fellating Jim's ego?

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

Instant ramen is underrated, but I usually go for microwave pizza, French toast sticks, and spaghetti and meatballs.

Microwave pizza? Hopefully you're cooking it in the oven, that shit's pretty gross when cooked in the microwave.

Well, no. It's very rare that guns are fired.

Unless you're the odd farmer who lived behind my house last year who would wander round his fields occasionally letting off a shotgun blast at some birds overhead.

So the citizenry are allowed to walk around with firepower, but the constables aren't? What madness is this?

Well technically they aren't, really. I think farmers can get dispensation for shotgun licences and stuff but generally it's a no no. Not that your average gun-toting farmer will give a shit, they've got other things to think about.

To be fair, a civil society does need a bit of Police Constable regulation in order to function properly.
