This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Give all citizens of the UK access to licensed firearms to prevent terrorists.
After the recent rapes and murders around the UK and Europe and the latest attacks in London, if government aren't going to protect us by deporting dangerous people of other backgrounds and from other countries of origin, it's time to let the people of the UK protect themselves.
More details
In my opinion, if anybody had been carrying a firearm when the terrorist was driving over people and stabbing the policeman in London, he may have been stopped a lot earlier and not as many people would have been hurt.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure what you mean by "access to licensed firearms". We're not sure whether you would like to Government to provide firearms to citizens of the UK, or whether you would like a specific change to the laws that regulate firearms in the UK.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
