No guns, please!

I dag intervjuet jeg en person som er parlamentsmedlem her nede. I resepsjonen hang det et skilt av typen 'forbudsskilt', dvs et motiv med en roed ring rundt og en roed strek over. Hva som var forbudt? Vaapen. Det var en pistol der, og skiltet viste tydelig at det er forbudt aa ta med pistoler inn i parlamentet. Det var betryggende aa vite.

Today I interviewed an MP here. In the reception there was a prohibition sign of sorts, you know the kind with a red circle with an object inside and then a red line across the object. What the sign was about? Weapons. The object on the image was a gun, so it is apparently illegal to bring guns into the parliament. How comforting to know.
