Yes, I know people including my step-dad in Washington state who legally carry concealed handguns.
I'm not ideologically committed to any position, all I really know for sure is thousands of Americans die each year from gun violence and there's got to be a better way to deal with the issue than what's been going on for too long.
I appreciate your concern. But the kind of laws you are suggesting in the USA were already implemented in Canada with no compelling evidence that it worked. True, Canada saw improving trends, but they improved half as fast as the USA.
Nevertheless, there is ample evidence that Canada is different than the US. Didn't you watch the boring parts of Bowling for Columbine? Moore proposed that the difference is in social policy, not gun policy.
Give it rest!! Are you infering the Federal Bureau of Investigation is privy to all the stats just as the Homeland Security hasn't been??..... if so, forget those stats.. There hasn't been any obligation, or funding for hospitals, local police forces, state police to report anything to the FBI, any more than a local doctor has been.. They were obliged to report to local authorities, period. This was only changed in January of this year by Obama. So suck it up and swallow it.!! There has not been a shred of accuracy in any of the stats coming out of the US on gun violence for years. That has been seen to by the Republican Party and the NRA!! By cutting off funding for those stats and only reinstating the funds on the condition that they not be used to track gun violence the gun lobby and the Republican party have successfully muffled the true stats of such violence for years.

LOL I'm in good company. Take a look at the stats on people approving of gun control. The NRA nor the Republican Party are able to screw with those stats. Oh by the way I don't give a damn how many times you thumb down my posts. It simply counts as a winning post in my eyes.
Your invisible friends embarrass themselves too?
That has what to do with the idiocy you filled your reply to Colpy, with?
You excel at being a winner.
Moore simplified Canadian society, I know plenty of places where people lock their doors even when they're at home.
Any solution to gun violence is probably going to involve modifying gun laws as well as dealing with underlying social issues. I don't believe that problem will magically resolve itself if certain classes of firearms are banned, I do think that there needs to be a change in how violence is viewed as method to resolve disputes in the US.
I lock my door a night even when I'm at home.....not because I'm afraid of being robbed......Simply because I wouldn't want to shoot some poor drunk, who would walk in by mistake........
Breaking in might be a different matter.....
I like handguns, 1 hand points the gun at the criminal, the other calls the police.
Don't make me hold a rifle.

Oh, crap. Tell me again why they are trying to do this. And she's one of the most ardent supporters of the bill.

isn't she the idiot bitch that gave a speech on firearms safety, meanwhile she was holding a rifle as a prop......and her finger was on the trigger! LOL
Evolution is why we need guns.
You wouldn't want ones of these loose in your neighbourhood, would you?

In Canada, our gun violence has been reduced to about 127 gun deaths per year out of 30 million people. There is a strong possibility that another gun law will not meet the proportionality test ( the Oakes test)
