I think there's a continuum here

Items being left in their context > Items in a museum in the area they originate from > Items in a museum in a foreign area > Items in private possession

I don't know enough about any particular thing to say that being in the british museums is an improvement, but I don't think we should take it for granted that a museum is the ideal place for historical artifacts

Trying to be as neutral and objective about this idea as I can:

People who own pets are very emotionally attached to them. Even if pet ownership was the #1 contributing factor to climate change, it would still take an extremely terrible climate for the majority of pet owners to be willing to live without their pets.

If you were to try to introduce some legislation to make this happen, I think that at a minimum and currently owned pets would have to be grandfathered in.

A bit off topic, I have heard some calls to make it mandatory that all pet cats would have to be indoor cats, due to their predation of certain species

However, there was no warhead attached, meaning there was never any danger to the community.
Bellevue Police Department spokesman Seth Tyler, told BBC News on Friday that the device was "just basically a gas tank for rocket fuel".
He called the event "not serious at all".
"In fact, our bomb squad member asked me why we were releasing a news release on a rusted piece of metal," he said.

Yes. The police are much more of a threat than any other group.

I understand that a sheriff signs off for a carry permit in most places

In Maryland, when I tried to purchase a handgun, you had to also have a permission slip from the local sheriff to purchase a handgun at all, even if it stayed locked in a safe in your home
