U.S. Asked to Keep Their Toys at Home

[damngrumpy]

I think the gang problem is only a symptom of the problem anyway. We have these
fools called politicians coming to vancouver to announce the new laws regarding gang involvement and punishment. First in order to sentence someone to forever and a day in jail, you have to catch them first. Besides, the gangsters are not the
least bit scared by sentences like that, as they carry out their illegal business.
BC Bud is the problem, legalize it and tax it, most of the profit would be gone and
those wanting to make a buck would move on.
If the law was serious the would be even more strict. Do what Israel does with the
suicide bombers families. You arrest the family and flatten their house leaving them homeless and without means. I know I hear the outrage already, but the point I am making that even that does not stop suicide bombers from doing their
deadly deed. We have to change the view of our social structure, we have to go
back to the drawing board and re-introduce respect, and honest competitive
spirit and face it there's no money in that. The time has come to take a stab at
actually dealing with the problem rather than putting a bandade on the symptom

I am willing to compromise.....I have no problem with licencing or with safety training.....I am a qualified trainer in the federal firearms safety program.

I don't approve of the idiotic classifications of firearms...........nor the useless registration, nor the refusal to licence carry.

And compromise in this atmosphere is useless....I've been compromised so much on this issue my butt hurts.

(Did I say that out loud?)8O

Yeah, you probably did, I've said it out loud too, and no, there is no comprimise with the gun grabbers.:angryfire:

By the way, Colpie, I was wondering. In Canada, do we need to declare intent when buying a firearm? For example, whether we intend to use it for hunting, a specific sport, defense of self and family, etc.? I'm asking just out of curiosity.

My understanding is that you don't need to express intent when purchasing a non restricted firearm. For a restricted or prohibited firearm you have to state its use or purpose, target shooting is the most common and easiest reason, collectors are under stringent guidelines, especially in Quebec, (odd because firearms legislation is federal), and protection is is the least likely reason to be allowed to own a restricted or prohibited firearm unless you are police, armed guard, or military.

"Like a bank in Florida rewards you with the option of your own handgun when you open your first bank account"

What bank is or did that?

Sorry i missed this....but no, you do not need to declare intent when buying a typical long gun.....rifle or shotgun.

You have to declare intent when you get you Acquisition licence if it includes handguns.....target shooting or collectiong are the only acceptable reason.......
