Actually, in the world of royalty, you disrespect her MORE by calling her "Her Royal Highness." Since she is the Queen, protocol dictates you refer to her as "Her Majesty."
HRH is beneath her.

We British being civilised, by comparison to some people; abolished the death penalty many years ago. It was mainly following the execution of Ruth Ellis. The British thought it was a little distasteful to keep a woman locked up in the certain knowledge she would face the gallows. Dropping someone through a trap door with a noose around their neck may break their neck and end their life quickly but it's hardly civilised. The wait on what is known as "Death Row" in some countries - isn't at all civilised. However, although we abolished the death penalty for certain crimes like murder. It still applies for treason - acts against the state. Technically, as this is a constitutionally monarchy your picture could be regarded as treason and you would "swing" for it. But her majesty delegates her powers to the Prime Minister. He hasn't ordered any ones execution yet. But he is spending a lot of time with George W Bush; so you may wish to take care in the future. Teflon Tone appears to be getting more right wing every day.....

well the way i see it, she maybe royalty , but it was just luck that she is , because know body has a choice of what family there born into, not even the queen, she was handed everything to her in life just because she was lucky enough to born into a family that she was.. don't seam far does it, but that's life,,but i did think it was funny to see the picture of her holding the gun ,and it also gives her more exposure,, and that could mean even more ,,money ,

Well that total depends, to many like my self it's funny and to others offensive but that being said it is in your right as a human being to freely express your opinions. This is for Canada
Fundamental Freedoms
2. Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms:
a) freedom of conscience and religion;
b) freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;
c) freedom of peaceful assembly; and
d) freedom of association.
The Queen may disapprove of it but you must remeber that this basic freedom of expression grants you that right to express your self.
Many would say its tasteless but it is your right to express your self. All we really can do is disapprove of it.
This basic freedom is in the UN Human rights code as well I think it is any ways.

Give me a break, you're gonna tell me she hasn't thought of it herself. Not really, well if your private security aren't up to snuff ... A queen's gotta do what a queen's gotta do. It's a crazy world out there ... gotta protect yourself. You go Q!!!.

We in America believe we have the right to bear arms, so I would say no.
