Default Ladies & Gentlemen: Happy Fourth!

At one time, back about 1911, the UK and its colonies were
reasonably free places. Today, possession of a pocket
knife, a firearm or even a door lock that you won't open for
police inspection will land you in the slammer.


There is only one USA and one U.S. Constitution and Bill of
Rights.
