I found where they've been hoarding it!

This article is so full of fail that it's hard to know where to start.
2.2mm,... Really? A .087" bullet? For what, shooting flies? Mice?

Oh those poor Brits, and their STUPID laws, stupid cops and even stupider reporters.

2.2mm? Tho OD of these is right at 2.2mm. Fleas are
pretty tough and mice are WAY too big--I'm thinking
gnats or fruit flies? Maybe a mosquito?

The Brits once ruled the world, now look at them.

The comments at the end of the article are great:

"Perhaps Mr Tipping could hand his testicles back in at stores so they can be reissued to someone that might use them"

"This guy is either a complete & utter wuss of the first order or else he can hear the clink clink of a compo claim, 'Oh I'm so traumatized I can't sleep or live in my lovely home any longer'! Grow a pair you Wuss!"

".,,one of the cats could have got hold of one.." - Ah! your cat has a machine gun, your over-acted fear and pathetic-ness now makes sense, I do apologise..."

"The underwater search unit was unavailable' I just laughed so hard at the thought of teams of divers clustered around the garden pond I near lost control of my bladder."

Great Britain is not completely lost

In some ways the Brits are like the French along with other countries over there, they have given up. Beware America, that's what the nut jobs over here want us to do.

Before the pair knew what was happening, two fire engines pulled up, followed by two police vans - and their garden was taken over as a full-scale assessment took place.

A 'Full - Scale Assessment" That is too funny! You can't make this stuff up!

 

[Jamie6.5]

The couple dialled 101 and two officers arrived, quickly realised the seriousness of the situation, and called in CID officers who alerted the fire brigade to drain the ponds because the underwater search unit was not available.

The underwater search team? Really? A guy in full scuba gear in a 6' diameter pond? That's only 3' deep?
:ROFLMAO:

Shocked: Eleanor Mercer and Neil Tipping stumbled upon a haul of ammunition in their rented home

Shocked? Ms. Mercer appears to be diggin' the attention and Clark Kent Tipping is clueless.

 

[jbett98]

I'm surprised that such a Nancy boy as this, would live near a pool of water 3' deep.

This world is obviously entirely too dangerous for those people, and they should remove themselves from it, poste haste.

and they should remove themselves from it, poste haste.

Give me an opportunity to 'reprogram' Ms. Mercer first.

Bet he has never peed standing up... I'd revoke his Man Card but I'm pretty sure it was taken by his woman years ago if it was ever issued in the first place.

There is NO WAY you have a chance of getting with this Woman! She is clearly only attracted to sissy la-la's.

Her Father must be proud!

Lefty.

 

[RVTECH]

Well, I would still like to give her the opportunity of holding something hard and firm in her hands, like my Colt or Winchester.

.. Again.. I wish nature would be allowed to take its course and weed out the frail and spineless sheeple.

Darwinism is a part of nature, but our laws and ways of science keep those who would have normally died, alive. Either by their laziness, incompetence or spinelessness/cowardice/weakness
(be it phisical limitations or weakness of the heart and mind like those traits of a liberal).

SUPER LIKE !!!

OK GIRLS! Settle down right now! Tippy! You run as far and as fast as possible from those dangerous and evil bullets (especially those 2.2's)! Ms. Mercer is astonishingly pretty, got a feeling Tippy needs to grow at least a 2.2mm set if he intends to keep her! Might meet the most wuss American and think he's Tarzan. Oops! Gosh! Bye Tippy old girl!

PS: Did some of those .22's look like Yellow Jackets?

I just finished watching a documentary by Werner Herzog called "Happy People - A Year On The Taiga".
It chronicles fur trappers living near the Arctic Circle in Russia. Found it on Netflix.
After watching real men, living a life that they love and cherish, then reading about Mr Tipping's moral anguish over finding some old ammo in a pond, really makes me wonder where were going as a society.
I highly recommend watching it, just so you can see the disparity of the two different lifestyles.
