Acting on a citizen complaint, officials in Plymouth, England, ruled in October that Army cadets, who practice precision drills with their rifles, could not handle them during the public parade on Britain's Remembrance Day (Veterans Day). Officials said they did not want to be "glamorizing" guns.

Yeah, well, it's England. I'm surprised that everyone isn't stripped search for pocket knives and other weaponds of mass destruction (nail clippers, scissors, etc.).

Oh, it's not just England. I tried to get a truck in the Veteran's Day parade in Dahlonega for GCO. Had it all lined up, too....but the parade coordinator said no guns would be allowed in his parade. Kinda odd, but their loss.

Meh. I guess no one cares since it doesn't involve them directly. But hey, how about that Dancing with the Stars, huh? wow.
