"Originally posted by kelvin90701 The crime was committed when he took possesion of the firearm . Do you know of any other crimes that your are guilty of when your are innocent in the past then the law makes you guilty later for a past event ? If the speed limit is 40 mph on Monday , the law makes it 30 mph on Tuesday , are you guilty of speeding when it was Monday ? Well in the UK you are ."
"23,000 firearms were handed in when the UK had its gun ban . According to your logic those people that handed in their firearms can still be prosecuted because they took possession of a firearm prior to the ban . I do n't think so ."
