lol You and I kow that any gun law to be effective it needs to be enforced, Now the Parkland shooter had turned 18, just, had been in and out of mental institutons several times times, had been reported to police and FBI to be a danger. He still managed to shoot and kill 17 peple . Then he managed to leave his gun behind and walk out past the ,supposedly trained deputies. They only picked him up and hour later when the students told authorities who did the shooting.

So you try to point out all the laws you like but if the law does not work the schools, religious, any place where people gather will be continue to be targets for anyone with a grudge. So continue to argue with me and anyone who wants to be free from harm while going about their daily lives, BUT THIS TIME the students and their families who want the change will vote for those who they feel will enact it.

Gee that is almost word for word what we have been telling you for the past 3 years.

I quoted you. I don't have to look up anything. You are making statements. It is up to you to prove them. Let me be blunt. You're full of shit.

I am not quoting Cdn laws. I only talked about Florida.

If the man was buying the handgun for his son, then he would be making the purchase. Letting his son look at it is not illegal. The boy was under supervision.

I suggest that you think before you type.

Do you know or can you prove that someone that leaves a mental institution can go into Walmart and purchase a handgun? I don't believe you. You made the statement. Prove it.

How the mentally ill pay for medical insurance has nothing to do with buying or owning firearms.

Last thing. If that young man was reported many times, then the police failed.If he posted murderous intent on FB, the police could have acted.

Now I know you are talking through your hat. :lol:
YUP You did. Point out where i specified hand gun. I do not think even a rifle should be given as a birthday present to a child under 21 never mind a young lad not even in his teens. Darn really dislike being talked down to even on a pc. especially by a know nothing.

Funny that the government will give them a gun at 18 and pay them to go kill people in foreign lands but you don't think they should be permitted to hunt in Canada until they are 21. You really need a reality check.

ah but you and I both know a law that is ineffective is not a law ay all it is just a suggestion.

So why do you want even more ineffective laws. Almost every week there is a shooting in Surry and all are with handguns that have been restricted for almost 90 years. Non of them are registered either. Making laws that criminals refuse to follow is a waste of time and money for the rest of us.

i just gave a thumbs up for the stupidest reply you could think of. THIS time the protests are not going away.

i watched a young student questioning a politician a couple of days ago about how much he took from the NRA for his campaign. that politician tried to deflect the question in every manner he could but that young man would not let go. There was nothing wrong with my understanding of the laws here after all i have spent 5 plus months here since 1989.

Up until a few tears ago, new years eve was deadly here. Firing weapons into the air was the thing to do here.

After a few nasty accidents, that got a bit more attention. i.e. one chiid killed it's crib and a woman who was unfortunate enough to go blind when a spent bullet took out both corneas and part of her nose. So I do understand the laws here and how they have failled. I DO KNOW OF WHAT I SPEAK. So suck it up.

Yup so guess who will not get elected1 Sheer.

Another angry person with a tenuous grasp of reality. :lol:

Go watch television. You were proven wrong and you're just digging yourself in deeper. If you wish to argue about the NRA, you should go to an American board. The NRA does not operate here.

From your posts, it is very clear that you do not know of what you speak. You were wrong about Florida's laws, but I was nice enough to find the references for you, so you could learn something.

Read and learn.

Its not funny. There are so many laws enacted by those who are not affected by them. AN 18 year should not be forced to go to war. A man or a woman can marry at 18 can have children whenever they feel OR are physically capable of it.

'Almost every state in the US and Canada sets the legal minimum age at 18 but exceptions that exist mean girls can be married younger with parental or judicial consent. In 25 states in the US, there is no minimum age for these exceptions.[2] Legal challenges to these laws are ongoing in several states.'

Notice how a girl can be married off considerably younger than a male.

As far as war goes, there should be a general vote taken to approve/ disapprove of the choice. If the choice is against, it would not affect the going to go to war but those who feel it to be the best solution must serve in the military. like the days when the troups were led into battle by their leader.

We are just locked in the continuous loop of argument.

These kids are done with that.

They are changing the discussion. There are saying that there will be consequences for any politician who gets bought by the NRA.

It is going to get the attention of every swamp dweller in America - and the recent gun control votes in Florida verify that.

Back from the mall?

Is this what your friends are talking about? Don't worry, you'll be chasing the next earth shattering thing this week.

Did you talk about the latest video games?

Another idiotic response. i am a canadian and the main reason I post here is because there are those posting here that believe good gun control laws are useless. I try to point out that good laws, followed up are what makes our country safer than those of the US, With 18 mass shootings, i believe, since the beginning of the year, in the us why would antone want that for Canada/

If you actually nail down what Colpy believes - and that is a task - he actually believes in gun control. He believes in background checks.

Halleluyah- Why is it that so many people (idiots) fail to get this through their thick heads? You hear all kinds of clamouring for "gun laws", but not one detail about how to enact it. Is there someone intelligent enough in the whole country that can come up with a 10 point effective plan that will actually work w/o "knee capping" sensible responsible citizens and yet "crippling" the criminal element? Do members of law enforcement need to pass a strict test to ensure they are competent at law enforcement?

In Canada, psychological testing is conducted prior to acceptance. Applicants are examined to determine their physical, mental state, as well as problem solving and some others. These are done prior to being accepted for employment. They are sent for police trng only after being hired by a police force.

I do not know if pysch testing is required on a continuing basis. I doubt it though.
