No it isn't the other way around. Some young men (in the UK) in high crime areas will carry them illegally because it makes them feel safer. UK has strict gun and knife laws. https…

You don't seem to have ever driven on a long, empty, well lit 4 lane carriage way at 4am in he morning. If I am going 70MPH (UK Motorway speed limit) or 120MPH in such a situation …

Most of the time I don't need a puncture repair kit / spare inner tube when cycling, but when I have a puncture I really need it. You don't feel the need for something like a gun f…

It is the easiest thing to do and the least hassle. I agree it is a racket, but I don't want randos from TV licensing knocking on my door.

The TV license is a relic of the past that is no longer relevant to viewer's viewing habits. It should be abolished. I really don't know why they haven't.
