Guns belong with cops, the army and hunters. Handguns belong to the first 2 only. Anybody who likes guns and wants to play with them can join a gun range. The only reason to give guns to everybody would for example be, the US, who've never regulated this awful killing object. When everybody else in the neighbourhood has a few in their home, plus it's in every scumbags hands on street corner, how can you regulate it? Canada should never adapt or follow the US's gun disaster policy, I don't want to have guns rampant in our cities, there are enough illegal one's already.
following any 1 of the 4 safety rules for firearms would have prevented this incident. This is more of an education problem than a public safety problem.
BHO's power to influence on display.

Like dude. Let's be real here. Your chances of being killed by gun violence is rather low. Lower than Americans. You know that's because of our gun control, right? So therefore gun control is not completely useless. It, at least, protects Canadian citizens. You know, like you, me, and our loved ones.
Did you maybe ever consider the fact that it is because of our self control more then our gun control ?
I say you are wrong. Our rates were always lower than America's. And, there are/is no trending to suggest that our gun control made any improvement to an already lower rate. Therefore it is not effective, and possibly completely useless.
LOL well, our gun numbers are lower, our rules are tougher and our death & injury rates (like most of the rest of the industrial world) are much lower per capita. This is despite the piss poor data collection in the USA.
So what you say has no bearing on the facts. Claiming that the lower rate has no relationship to our laws controlling firearms is ridiculous. Claiming our laws and lower rates of killing and wounding is accidental is laughable.
And yet, among U.S. states, there is no correlation between tough gun laws and lower gun violence.
I like trolls, the make the game, sometimes they win sometimes they loose, but they'll always be trolls.
Of course there isn't. How can there be a correlation without the centralized, decent collection of data. There is a reason why there is such a hullaballoo everytime there are mass shootings.. Anything more than two is considered a mass shooting in our world but not in the US. Two or three rarely get mentioned nationally, only locally.

TAMPA, Fla. - A Florida mother agreed to store her gun more safely and take other steps to avoid criminal charges after her four-year-old son picked up the gun she kept in her car and accidentally shot her in the back, state prosecutors said on Friday.
Jamie Lynn Gilt, 31, has entered a deferred prosecution agreement on a charge of unsafe storage of a firearm, Spencer Hathaway, a spokesman for State Attorney's Office in Florida's Seventh Judicial Circuit, said in a statement.
She is required to complete a gun safety course and install a mounted holster in her vehicle, and show proof that firearms in her home are safely stored, the statement said.
Gilt must also give 10 speeches about the March 8 incident, which drew wide attention after local media reported she was a staunch advocate for the right to carry guns, citing her apparent comments on social media.
Gilt was struck in the back, while the child was unharmed. Prosecutors agreed to dismiss the charge recommended by a local sheriff if she meets the safety conditions in their agreement.
"Jamie is happy to be able to share Mother's Day with her family and put this unfortunate incident behind her," her attorney, Bryan DeMaggio, said in a phone interview.
Authorities said Gilt was licensed to carry the weapon that she had placed under the edge of the driver's seat. It slid to the back floor, where her child picked it up.

Clearly you are confused.
Let me rephrase....Your desire to pass a law, then take credit for rates that pre-exist the law is totally expected from someone that hates to see woman protect themselves from a skull smashing rapist.
However, when it comes to statistical analysis, attributing pre-existing rates to a law does not stand up to the most basic logic.
I believe that this is too complicated for you to understand. You should not spend another moment thinking about it.
