It seems the sea doesn't take kindly to sub's attempts at perfection: top-notch hardware suffers from crew failure.

Someone was either unstable or incompetent (if it was accidental).

As much disarming has been done in the UK I am surprised guards are even armed.

Not so much 'disarming, as the fact that we've never been trusted with guns since the attempted Nazi invasion!

That boat is definately cursed.

 

slightly off topic but did anyone else noticed that the first story from the 'telegraph' quotes 'A 9mm pistol was used in the shooting'

 

Yet the BBC claim that the gunman used his standard issue sa-80 rifle? I guess this goes back to the thread the other day that the media know nothing about weapons and should consider researching thoroughly before posting anything
