# UK Taxpayers Foot the Bill for Illegal Migrants’ Therapy Sessions: A Stark Contrast to Armed Self-Reliance
Imagine this: You’re a hardworking British citizen grinding away at your job, paying steep taxes in a nation where owning a firearm for self-defense is essentially a fantasy. Meanwhile, the UK government—fresh off reports from *The Telegraph*—is set to roll out taxpayer-funded personal therapists for asylum seekers who crossed the Channel illegally on small boats. Yes, you read that right. These aren’t vetted refugees fleeing war; many are single men from safe countries, now getting bespoke mental health support courtesy of your paycheck. The Home Office scheme, buried in procurement docs, promises therapeutic interventions to help them cope with the trauma of their journey—trauma that apparently doesn’t include the irony of freeloading off a welfare state that disarms its own people.
For the 2A community stateside, this is a masterclass in the perils of gun-free utopia. In the UK, where defensive gun use is a criminal act and knife laws tighten by the week, the state positions itself as your sole protector—right down to your psyche. But who’s protecting the Brits from the crime waves tied to unchecked migration? Migrants, including failed asylum claimants, have been linked to disproportionate violent offenses, per official stats from the Ministry of Justice showing non-UK nationals at 25% of prison populations despite being just 10% of the populace. Instead of empowering citizens with the tools for self-defense—like the Second Amendment does here—the government opts for therapy handouts. It’s nanny-state logic on steroids: Can’t carry a gun? Here’s a counselor to process your victimhood.
The implications scream across the pond. As America debates border security amid record illegal crossings, the UK’s model warns of a future where resources flow to invaders while law-abiding folks foot the bill—and bear the risks unarmed. 2A advocates, take note: This isn’t just fiscal insanity; it’s a blueprint for societal disarmament, where the state therapizes away your instincts to fight back. In a world of real threats, we’ll take our rifles and rights, thanks—leaving the couch sessions to those who prefer handouts over sovereignty. Stay vigilant, patriots.
