Nairaland / General / Children Under 10 Issued Shotguns by zenus(m): 9:42am On Mar 24, 2011
Thirteen children under the age of 10 have been issued with shotgun certificates in the UK over the past three years.

The youngest child to be granted a licence was seven years old, figures obtained by BBC News show.

Last year, the Association of Chief Police Officers suggested that under-10s are banned from using shotguns.

But the British Association for Shooting and Conservation says children use shotguns for sports activities.

The statistics were released by 51 police forces under the Freedom of Information Act. Dorset was the only constabulary not to provide information.

Between 2008 and 2010, 7,071 licences were issued to under 18 year olds.

Devon and Cornwall police granted the most certificates, 418, followed by West Mercia, 346, and Norfolk, 324.
No minimum age

Ten shotgun certificates were issued to nine year olds. Two forces - West Mercia and Cumbria - each approved a licence application for an eight year old.

In 2008, Gloucestershire police granted a licence to a seven-year-old child.

“Start Quote

Age is irrelevant. It's the mental aptitude, and the stability of the family, that decides it, the age doesn't decide it at all”

End Quote Steve Bloomfield British Assoc for Shooting and Conservation

Under current laws, there is no minimum age for applying for a shotgun certificate in the UK. The decision to grant a licence rests with a senior police officer.

But when using a shotgun, children must be supervised by an adult until they turn 15.

The British Association for Sports and Conservation says children use shotguns for sports such as clay pigeon shooting, and on family-run farms.

Spokesman Steve Bloomfield said age was "irrelevant" as the decision on granting a licence is made by a very experienced police officer who will visit the family involved.

He added that the certificate simply allowed for a child to be trained and educated by an adult.

"It's far better to take a young person with their parents, or to a club, and allow them to use that shotgun and be trained from whatever age," he said.

"And the age is irrelevant. It's the mental aptitude, and the stability of the family, and the stature of that young person that decides it, the age doesn't decide it at all."

Last October, the Commons Home Affairs Committee reported that a "large number" of young people enjoyed shooting in a safe and responsible manner.

But the committee was told by Assistant Chief Constable Adrian Whiting, lead spokesman on firearms legislation for the Association of Chief Police Officers, that there should be an "absolute minimum age" of 10 for shooting with firearms and shotguns.
Public protection

Ten is the age of criminal responsibility in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The Home Affairs Committee concluded that the laws be "simplified and clarified" and that there was "no good reason" to maintain the current differences in age restrictions between shotguns and firearms - where people have to be 14 before being granted a licence.

The Home Office is currently reviewing firearms laws and is expected to publish its response to the Committee's report by early summer.

A spokesman said: "Public protection is the first duty of any government and our firearms laws are among the toughest in the world.

"It is right that we keep them under review and we are prepared to tighten them further if necessary. Those controls must also be proportionate and fair and all options are on the table.

"We are carefully considering the recommendations made by the Home Affairs Select Committee, the Association of Chief Police Officers and any issues raised in the parliamentary debate, before deciding what further action might be necessary."

Well, I've tried what I can, and it's still not installing.

I've returned my MTN sim to tmy 5320XM and the dstv is working flawlessly.

I'll just have to wait till I get that compatible tv headset. If anyone knows someone going to SOuth Africa, pls see if you can order plenty of them. It's 500 Rand or about 11000 Naira.

Mind you, Nigeria price may not be the same with those in SA.
These guys may decided to bring the price down to bring more ppl to DSTV mobile or make the price go up for the swaggard types
Autos / Re: BUY YOUR SHARP & NEAT CAR(S) FROM COTONOU ( @ THE BEST BET) WITH A LOW MILEAGE... by zenus(m): 4:55pm On Mar 18, 2011
phoneworks:

The diifence in price between a car one bought in Nigeria and that of Cotonue is quite significant with the cotonuo car being far cheaper. But the problem with the Cotonuo car is leaving the car in the hand of somebody you do not know to bring into Nigeria Later. Anything can happen. If you buy in Nigeria you pay and take your car along immediately no stories. Our cotonuo gurus, what security are you putting in place for this business to be triving. How do you intend to go coporate in this sector. Many want to buy from cotonue but they cannot afford to leave their hard earned income into the hand of a stranger.

Well deserve comment.
Thank You

Phones / Rim Preparing To Bring Bbm To Ios And Android, Change Everything Again? by zenus(m): 6:38pm On Mar 04, 2011
Woah, now here's a juicy rumor to start your Thursday morning off with. BGR reports word from multiple trusted sources that RIM intends to take its BlackBerry Messenger outside the cozy confines of the BB ecosystem and straight into its competitors' app stores. BBM is reputedly all set to make its debut as a messaging app on both iOS and Android, though the specifics of what it might cost you have yet to be ironed out. It'll come in a stripped down version, you'll still need to own a BlackBerry for the full-flavored BBM experience, but that should nonetheless be extremely welcome news for folks finding themselves torn between platforms. The Android version is expected this year, say the sources, while the iOS app may take a little while longer thanks to Apple's more capricious approval requirements

Dream Meego is Dead,Symbian is Dead,Qt is Dead,Nokia sold itself to WindowMobile which is a silly move considering how much no one likes wp7,now i finally understand texazpete point of view.Android and IOS are the only platform worth moving to.RIM is just a dead beat.

Read before making comments.
It's only WP7 that replace symbian.
Meego and Java still in production.
Check Nokia site or engadget.
