Gun Control is Completely Useless.

[Colpy]

The answer is more and better gun control

Thank God you're not a doctor, if you think the solution to 40 years of failed treatment is more of the same.

It's just your opinion, erroneous as it is.....
So, don't buy a gun!

local bans are a good start but here needs to be federal laws

We have bans. It called the Criminal Code of Canada.

This is what happens when you violate the "bans" we already have.

Three people are in custody following an investigation by the Regina Police Service's Street Gang Unit.
On Wednesday shortly after 7:45 p.m. CST, a SWAT team carried out a search warrant for a home on the 1200 block of Robinson Street. The search turned up three firearms and resulted in 23 gun-related charges.
Police blocked off the street for approximately an hour and a half.
Two men, a 43-year-old and a 46-year-old, are facing a combined 23 weapon related charges. The 43-year-old man is also facing charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking and possession of proceeds of property obtained by crime.
One of the men was arrested at the home while the other was arrested during a traffic stop nearby.
A woman was also arrested at the home due to an outstanding warrant.
Both men made their first appearance in Regina provincial court Thursday morning.

Any questions?

If we get enough local bans going Trudeau will be able to get a federal law through.

To increase prison capacity?

The best solution for Hoid would simply be to stop talking like a couple of others on here like Curious George.

The fact is that it isn't that guns are bad, it's that some people are bad. No gov't rules can control what people think or have much impact over people's behaviours and no amount of police can effectively prevent crimes from occurring. So we simply have to deal with not allowing the bad people to have guns and catching those bad people after they've done some bad. Prohibition just doesn't effing work.

A gun is useless until it is paired up with a person, not to mention a person can do a lot of damage w/o a gun!

My wife was working as a cardiology RPN during Rae's government. She got "Rae dayed" ... not paid for honest work days (nurses work hard) several times and now spits when she hears "Rae".

She really does!

Like a Llama!

Holy shit, CC...........that's quite the frickin' spit. I've seen those critters spit and it isn't pretty as well as being really stinky and messy.

Well put, Anna. :thumbright:'s up for you.

Banning handguns in major cities doesn't mean guns are bad.

It means handguns in cities is a bad idea.

Not sure why the people who live in a city can't decide for themselves.

 

[JamesBondo]

gun are banned in cities. its already illiegal to walk down the street with one.

Or carry in a vehicle unless heading to a gun range and must be in a lock box

If you could guarantee that no criminals would have access to firearms in your world of make believe............you might get some convert to your new religion........good luck with that!

I told you; city folks also hunt, target shoot, collect, etc.
Ad again, how many criminals do you know that adhere to the laws?

Nope. Carrying guns in cities is simply restricted.

Isn't that question slightly redundant?

So we only create laws that criminals will follow?

That's going to be tough.

No what you want to do is make laws that only honest citizens will follow, thinking that it will scare criminals....
They're laughing their asses asses off at you!

 

[Colpy]

The trick is to create laws that good citizens will follow.


Firearms seizures, or attempts at seizures, will not be followed by a very significant number of firearms license holders.


And they are, by definition, already vetted as "good citizens".


The state is overstepping itself.


These idiots learned nothing from the long gun registry fiasco.

 

[Hoid]

When such large majorities of citizens are asking for a a law it seems to me they would be likely to follow it.
