A British Airways 747 touches down on runway 27L at LHR. ATC says to the Captain: Just for your information, you were a little left of the centre line on that touchdown. And the Captain replied: That's correct, and my First Officer was a little to the right.

America’s constitutional right to bear arms is an anachronism dating back to the 18th century. In modern times, it is an unmitigated disaster which has given rise to many millions of privately owned guns and an alarming homicide rate, with a tally of more than 300,000 firearms related homicides in the past 25 years. While no law can be 100% effective, Britain has no “gun culture”, and much stricter firearms controls which have contained the annual tally of gun related homicides to a double digit value - fewer than one fiftieth of the American gun-related homicide rate per 100,000 population.
