Gun Control is Completely Useless.

[Colpy]

More fear-mongering from the gun haters

yep. The battle is never won.......it justs ebbs and flows.

Already I have read diatribes from the Coalition for Gun Control on "sniper rifles".....

Now, explain to me the difference between my scoped Remington bolt action .308 deer rifle.....and a USMC scoped, Remington bolt action .308 sniper rifle.

And 3/4 of the rest of rural Canada.

Count me in that 3/4s JLM. Now I can get my FAC and buy that hunting rifle a friend of mine has been keeping for me. This is one granny who won't have to depend on others to bring home the deer and moose meat anymore.

You must be one skookum granny! The moose I have had experience with (around Lone Butte 35 years ago) you'd want to quarter the quarters before lugging it out of the bush. Good luck in the hunt! :smile:

Thanks, JLM...........won't be going by myself so will have help lugging the brute out of the bush........that is if I am lucky enough to find one and bring it down.......not any easy task by any means. The fact that I will be able to at least try is well worth celebrating.

Oh, and I am a skookum granny! :smile:

The long-awaited brief on Bill C-19 presented by the Coalition for Gun Control before the Justice Committee.

Wendy Cukier is probably the most dangerous person Lady Liberty has seen in a while. With no Liberal government to fund her organization, it make me wonder if funding doen't come from the UN. She certainly would have held a high office in Hitler's or Stalin's inner circle, a despot's dream.

Ah Jesus Christ !!

Hopefully the jerks of the kneejerks will get short shrift.

Imagine all the money down the toilet due to kneejerks

Who was the Liberal kneejerk who thought he was going to ride into the Prime Minister's office on the firearm registration horse?? See, he's been gone so long I forget his gaddam useless name.

I do remember some politico also wanted to ban crossbows cause some twit killed some person with one about the same time as the Montreal massacre.




Just remembered..........who says the mind is the first thing to go??

Yeah....the idiot was president of the University of Ottawa..........he instructed Dr. Houle to write the infamous STFU letter to Ann Coulter.........Rock certainly is a threat to Liberty, and a moron to boot.

Yep, as for the CGC brief....wow.

First point.......the Mini 14 is not "powerful" in a relative sense, in fact it generates about 65% of the muzzle energy of the old .30-30 standard light deer rifle....................

Secondly, they complain about "sniper rifles" that can kill at 2 kilometers.......and the need to control them. Question: has ANYONE heard of a murder committed at anything over 150 yards????? ANYONE????? JFK- 86 meters. Malvo/Muhammed "sniper" shootings...max range slightly over 100 yards.....

Talk about restrictive solutions to a non-existent problem!

Third....the UN stuff....if I believed in the LGR, I'd want it destroyed after reading about our "international" commitments to that cesspool of totaltarian snakes and salivating meglomaniacal control freaks at the United Nations.............

Complete fail..

I am pro gun and pro gun control. You should be allowed to own a bazooka under controlled circumstances in my opinion. I used to support the gun registry, then I remembered, I don't trust our police officers.

 

[Ocean Breeze]

IF gun control is completely useless, what do folks suggest for an alternative???

It is obvious that gun ownership is not going to go away ........

It was great in the 1950's and early sixty's, you could buy almost anything from places like Potomac Arms including a bazooka, sorry I didn't get one then.

Here is what idiotic gun control (and mandatory sentencing!) achieves:

It’s hard to imagine a more legitimate self-defence scenario than this. An older man, inside his own home, has already been attacked and seen his property destroyed when he uses a measured degree of force against the attacker, ending the confrontation. Legally, it’s textbook perfect, and Foster did exactly the right thing to protect himself and his property. Except for one minor detail: The handgun was not properly registered.
According to reports, Foster had owned the gun for more than 40 years, after buying it to protect himself while serving with Canada’s diplomatic corps in Africa. He returned to Canada in the 1960s, and kept the gun but never bothered registering it. This was illegal then, and illegal now — handguns have required registration since 1934, and Foster could have registered it when the current firearms laws went into effect in the 1990s. He declined to do so, and will serve 9 months of house arrest after pleading guilty to the reduced charge of assault with a weapon.

Colpy, I don't see why he didn't register his gun........he had plenty of time to do so. Glad he had one on hand but still, it is illegal to be in possession of a firearm that isn't registered and there should be a penalty for not doing so.

He probably didn't register it because the LAW, law of the land that is (the charter, constitution, BNA), doesn't require it, nor does it have any restriction on what weapons we can own for private use whether that is hunting or protection.
The LEGISLATION that was enacted surrounding gun control is done in a Marine-Admiralty jurisdiction which is only to govern and regulate commerce and not private individuals.
It is very unfortunate that the distinction between the 2 jurisdictions is no longer known to most people as governments over the last 150-200 years have used deception to lead the people to believe Marine-Admiralty law (which is where most legislation falls) applies to individual citizens.

GOOD LORD, NO!!!

I think mandatory sentencing is idiotic...........it removes a very necessary flexibility from the justice system. As this case so clearly illustrates.

This gentlemen should have been charged with possession of an unregistered handgun, and given a fine, and lost the weapon. He is, after all, hardly a threat to society.

Instead, he pleads guilty to assault for defending himself from attack inside his own home, thus setting precedent that someone else will pay for down the line.

This is not only bad, it is bad, bad, bad.......
