We don't know the ins and outs of the case, there appeared to be emphasis on the issue of demonstrating good reason to own a "high power pistol", and from my hearing of it the Judge backed the Superintendent, with regards to refusing to grant a licence for a "high power pistol" and added in his bit about the proliferation of legally held hand guns in the community since 2004.
Now as I see it this guy has two choices 1, Accept the ruling 2, Appeal to a higher court (if possible) Judges have opinions too and some of these cases are going to be lost. The devil is in the detail |

Granted there may be stuff not mentioned, but that's it, there was no reason stated, except that the judge backed the super and that in the judges opinion there are too many pistols and firearms in the community. It seemed to me that the person was refusesd on public safety grounds. No mention of good reason, security, character etc.
Then RTE show footage of Dunblane. Maybe the Prime Time show was a hijacking of Mr. Cloonan after all. If it was I now apologise to him. Spoon feeding the masses by the national broadcaster, that there are loads of pistols in their communities and that people, and subliminly, children, by the reference to Dunblane, are in grave danger. Now whose orders are RTE following ?
