Have you any idea of how small our mass killings are as compared to those elsewhere??? The mass killings here in Canada, would not have been averted by everyone carrying guns. In fact, there would have been thousands of yearly shootings because more guns were available to whomever applied for one. To be shot in the back, would not have provided the opportunity of shooting back, so we don't really want to go there do we??Tell that to the families of all the mass murders. How about the two honor guards that were murdered by a loony toons in the parliament buildings? Had they been armed one or both would still be alive.
Do you or do you not want to live like they do in a third world country.......you know shoot first and hope there is not more armed and loaded to shoot back?
