Gun Control is Completely Useless.

[bluebyrd35]

It never has been dangerous here, what are you blabbering on about?

And the reason is???? Are we so much more in control of our emotions than the Americans, or could it possibly be because we don't have as many mentally deranged or criminals as the US has .......Oh perhaps it is harder to acquire guns without decent background checks, licensing and perhaps obligatory courses on handling weapons. Ah....that couldn't be it could it??

Really who the heck is doing the blabbering or blubbering in case our gun laws get tougher.

Wow, can't you get it in your head that cause and effect is impossible to establish when the effect preceded the cause.
Canada was already a great place before gun control laws. Get over it, you really need to learn to let things go.

Gun laws don't work. Look at how well the drug laws work. Gun laws would just create an even bigger black market where criminals get their guns while law-abiding citizens are disarmed. Liberals/progressives/democrats have been trying to disarm law-abiding citizens for years. They never stop seizing the opportunity to call for more gun control within minutes after a horrific shooting. It's disgusting.

Guns are here to stay, sweetheart!

Hastings St. Vancouver, $300 gets you a .22 for $800 a hand gun.. no background checks, license...

Get in touch with reality idiot.

Jamaica has background checks and licensing, just like Canada. Jamaica has a gun homicide rate 6 times greater than the USA, which is 4 times greater than Canada.

So, NO. It has nothing to do with the background checks and licensing.

Have you ever visited Jamaica?? To compare it to Canada is ludicrous.

I have never been greeted by sniffer attack dogs or guards with automatic AK-47's getting off a plane, boat or train in Canada, but have in Jamaica. The people are poor and there are people everywhere selling drugs. So try for a decent comparison.......like Canada to the US. My god they treat those smuggling coffee into the country more harshly than those importing guns.

Guns are here to stay, sweetheart!

But as long as they are properly regulated, I DON'T CARE. I would like to see the same sort of regulations in the US as we have in Canada. I would like to give a high five to most of the customs officers who block a goodly number of illegal guns coming into Canada, although I guess the BC coast could use a bit more monitoring. If anywhere in BC you can buy an illegal gun, so easily, there is a breech in our security.

 

[JLM]

You can pass all the laws you want but it's only the ones you can enforce that mean anything!

Have you ever visited Mississauga Ontario ? Half of Jamaica live there .

No wonder, I would even apply for citizenship elsewhere, if Canada was anything like Jamaica. Mind you, the tourists get exceptional treatment in Jamaica, what with the high fences, armed guards and guard dogs around the hotels. Oh there were lots of other precautions we were advised to take, like never leave the protection of the hotel without a group and taxis that are recommended. They recommend which restaurants, attractions are safe and even which and when golf courses are unsafe.

You can pass all the laws you want but it's only the ones you can enforce that mean anything!

Yes, quite true, but wouldn't it be good sense to find out why some countries can enforce the laws and others don't??

By the way, there is a reason for the lack of gun enforced laws in the US. It makes for a population that expects to need protection from each other. One very easily wound up to fight for what they believe is a good cause. Unfortunately it is the good causes of the big corporations.

Congratulations, you are starting to see that an entire country's gun homicide rate can be extremely influenced by factors other than gun control laws.

 

[bluebyrd35]

It starts by creating a peaceful place to start from. Canada has that.....Unfortunately very few other countries do. So are you suggesting we join those without a decent gun policy?? Do we join those who have no rules in order to gain some?? If so no, I disagree. Without gun control, there is no other factors that can influence a country's homicide rates. The homicides by other means than guns are very rare and are usually not immediately fatal. So an entire country's gun homicide rate cannot be reduced by factors other than gun control.

The influence of NO gun control is the main factor.

Have you ever been to Mississauga on a Friday night ? Peaceful my eye .
Can a white man drink peacefully on a Friday night in Prince Rupert ? Hardly .
How about in the Quebec can a white English only person get equal treatment ?
Your living in a dream country not reality >

A peaceful drunk white guy, now I know for sure you are in never, never land.

... and the gun crime rate in Mississauga is? ___________________


I personally knew someone who commited a gun crime in Mississauga for which he was a guest of Her Majesty for two years less a day.

He is white from an UPPER Middle Class background (parents are professionals), Scottish origin, well educated with a promising sales job ... his weapon was a twelve bore shotgun.

we already have oppressive gun laws in Canada. We currently have criminals running around committing all kinds of crimes with handguns but a law abiding taxpayer has to follow all kinds of stupid rules just to take a gun to the range. What we need is enforcement of existing laws on criminals and relaxing of rules on honest people.

So what's your point this time? or do you even have one?

There are crimes committed with guns and then there are breaking gun rules.A duce less couldn't have been much of a crime.

I live in an urban area, do not presently hunt (could talked back into it with the right companions), therefore I have no firearms presently and have no need of them. In my past, I used to compete in a DND (Marcom) rifle team back in the 70's. Used to shoot FN C2s regularly and Browning 9s occasionally.

I lived in the country for a bit (I am only one generation off of "the farm") and, having a need, owned a really nice .22 a .308 and a 410 ga.shotgun. With my target shooting background I used to pick off groundhogs at extreme distances ... felt like the Jackal.

My grandfather, uncles, cousins were/are all hunters. I've become a bit of a city mouse. My daughter, however is becoming a hot shot with the Cadets and the circle is closing again.

I believe that the general population is too irresponsible and stupid for unfettered firearms ownership. Most policemen would agree with me.

" a duce less isn't much of a sentence" eh? It fairly fukced up his life and scared the bejeezus out of some quite nice people. The way you put that, I have to wonder what kind of a thug you are.

Simple. A duce less is generally for misdemeanors and is not federal time. Meaning that it probably wasn't a very serious crime. You can get that for a B&E. Hell you can get that for selling pot if you are unlucky. Maybe the idiot should have tried using his brain.

 

[JamesBondo]

.... Then you pass a bunch of gun control laws. 35 yrs later, you claimed that they worked

. And the only evidence you have to offer is the stats gathered in other countries. You go on and on about how bad the USA is and how great the UK is.

But what about Canadian data, where is the evidence that the Canadian gun laws helped Canada?

Bluebyrd, if you work in the medical community, then you should know that doctors are not allowed to declare that a patient is cured based on reports from other patients, the doctors actually have to get off their butts and perform the correct tests and as the correct questions to determine if their patient has been cured.

What he did was shoot the windows out of the parent's house of an ex. that he had been stalking in a jealous rage. Fortunately, there was a big rack of long guns at home and he was able to resolve his personal crisis using the good ole USA style. We should all have a stock of guns around, lest we need them during a life changing event like that.
