chl, do you need ssn?

How do you legally defend yourself in the UK?

I think you can still use biting sarcasm.

Otherwise, you just need to curl up into a ball and hope you don't get hurt too badly.

yep,
you can always try and hit them with your handbag,
even our regular cops don't have guns,
another one got stabbed to death just last week,

our olympic pistol team are not allowed pistols in the UK,
they have to go to another country to practice,

if you want to own a shotgun it is a real pita, you need police clearance, the police come and inspect your property regularly to ensure you have adequate security,

we were thinking of going back home anyway and this may just be the icing on the cake,

I'm inclined to say 'don't let the door hit you'... but that may not be very polite...

1. It's not.
2. You're rude.
3. I welcome anyone, from anywhere, who wants to partake of Freedom.

Sir..
I also welcome anyone who seeks freedom and the American dream..
However, as the gentleman pointed out:
He's been here 6 years, on a dependant visa not working, or working illegally.

Now that he want's one of those freedoms that requires a little more 'skin', he want's to pack up go home. It seems that applying for 'resident legal alien' or earning citizenship is more than he feels he can do, and therefore he does not meet the requirements. Choices have consequences, I tell my kids everyday.

Give the guy a break – If I had to deal with our immigration bureaucracy on a regular basis, I might be ready to leave too.

let me point out, we have only been here six months,
as i'm here LEGALLY it would be nice to be able to live that way,
as it is, i'm treat like an illegal with very few rights,
we would have no problem with gaining legal resident status/green card/ citizenship but we now no longer feel this is a country we would like to live in,
we thought the USA was gonna be a dream come true, oh how wrong we were,

it's been nice knowing some of you,
we will be flying HOME in the next few months once we tie up all the loose ends here,

oh, and theres a beretta px4 storm for sale for $400 with only 50 rounds thru it,

[para driver]

i'm legally here for a minimum of 6 years but can't defend myself,
seems kinda crazy,

what are your views,

natt

six YEARS or six MONTHS????????????
I appologize if I got it wrong?

[texasnatt]

what i mean't is that we CAN stay up to 6 years without any further immigration hassle,
but have only been here 6 months at present,

[seamusTX]

we will be flying HOME in the next few months once we tie up all the loose ends here,

I honestly don't understand why you're saying this.

I know people who immigrated here from many other countries and have made a good life for themselves. Few of them had an easy start. I've also met people overseas who were born in the United States and preferred to be somewhere else. It's a big world, and hopefully there's a place for everyone.

I've lived in Texas for 12 years now, was working and visiting for 5 before that... 1 year seems to be the magic number, if you make it for a year, most folks stay...

With all due respect, 6 months is not a long enough trial.

sorry for getting this twisted into an immigration discussion, it's mean't to be a gun forum,
i'm on a few immigration forums where i discuss this type of thing,
sorry guys,

sorry guys,

in your case, it's kind of the same... the US Govt has established a minimum immigration status for gun ownership, and Texas has adopted much the same standard for CHL
