Make it illegal to fire any kind of gun within 15 miles of a residential home

Petition Details

We call on the Government to make it illegal to fire a gun of any kind unless you are police within 15 miles of anyone’s residential home.

Additional Information

I want Government to do this as I moved to the countryside 15 years ago for a quieter way of life and to enjoy the wildlife as do many. Since I moved I've had shotguns going off around my home virtually every day for 5 months of the year. It is loud and I find it terrifying. This year someone stood at my garden fence shooting across the garden and shot 2 of my pet ducks. I find it truly terrifying and the police could do nothing about it because the person shooting had permission from the farmer whose field is next to my property.

If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
