#4 ASBO. However, if a criminal had shot someone with it, the bullet would be immediately discharged from police custody, and the victim would be fined or imprisoned for "Interfering with the momentum of a projectile."

And possibly fined for "creating a public nuisance", by bleeding on the sidewalk, instead of the "human fluids only" recycling bin.

#7 Am I the only one thinking of Sylvester Stallone's move "Demolition Man" where everyone in the future turns into a bunch of wussies (except for Sandra Bullock, of course!) and even the police would almost faint at the sight of something like this?

Until just now, I thought the idea was high fantasy.

#9 The tenor of most comments seems to be "what a bunch of maroons" those Brits are.

Ahem. Same thing here in the Soviet of Hawai'i. State law is such that if you accidently leave a cartridge in your pocket after a day at the range, you are guilty of a felony.
