Petition Make self defence a legitimate reason to own a firearms licence

Law abiding British citzens have a right to own firearms to protect themselves and their family from harm, by using force against any aggressors. This will discourage criminals who may own firearms illegally, from any further criminal activity, due to the risk of resistance by law abiding citzens.
