It's the gun nuts' usual technique. If you continue on this thread, you'll hear lots of references to ladders. They think they're being clever.

Of course, their alleged logic is that if the object of your obsession has killed fewer people than some object that's legal, it should be legal. By that "logic," private ownership of nuclear warheads should be legal.

Let me know if you want to have an intelligent conversation about guns. I support the right to own guns (and own several myself), but I don't engage in the usual NRA horse shit.

So you are a hypocrite. Sounds like you are the last person who should be allowed to possess a gun.

Why do you need a 9 iron when a 7 iron will do just fine?

Next thing you know, they will be grabbing your bag...like they do when the prisoners are flying.

Northern Ontario,
Let me see, weren't you the one who started the gun control is completely useless thread? I would say that was an effort to loosen up restrictions on firearms.



Canada has strict gun laws? I took the firearms acquisition course. I passed it with a mark of 100%, but it was pretty much a paper test. There was no effort to make sure that I could actually load and fire a weapon or take care of it properly or even a check to see if I had proper storage for my weapons.



And your reference to tobacco is irrelevant. People die in lots of ways. That doesn't make a single gun death acceptable. And BTW isn't your reference to the low number of gun deaths actually a denial of your "Gun control is completely useless thread?"




Read my reply to Colpy. Deaths from other sources are not relevant to the thread. What you are basically saying is that deaths from cars are bad, and therefore that justifies deaths from guns. It doesn't.
That was either Pure Bullshit or you had an instructor that didn't do his/her job!

its unfortunate that the killing of students has been wrapped up in this whole argument about the right to own guns in general.

To me they are or could be or should be two different things.

Having an intelligent conversation about guns with a gun owner would be quite unusual; unless I talk to myself. I own two heirloom firearms. But go ahead.

That was either Pure Bullshit or you had an instructor that didn't do his/her job!


I suspect I had the FAC course that is typical of what most Canadian gun owners were required to take. As I said, I found it a bit of a joke.

Fact checkers caught spreading fake news about ANTIFA!

Yes, but that is what you get when you take the guns away from the people. You sound like you are looking forward to that.

Gun free London just passed New York ( I know you already saw that fact cited and are ignoring it because it is reality, lol )




Lol indeed, because your post is laughable. Gun deaths per 100,000:

UK .23
USA 11.96


Nice try at cherry picking, but it doesn't work for anyone who can see through your usual rubbish.
