Oldsarge and 500 Nitro,

The saddest fact in all of this is that the Indian authorities know that these silly licensing laws don't work. The two biggest insurgencies in India, in Punjab and in Assam were defeated only when the government formed "village defence committees" and armed decent law abiding citizens there. Decades of army and para military presence had done nothing before common people were armed.

Yes, the whole world needs the second amendment.
