RE: The Gun Registry Must

Nope. I've had a look at it because I've never changed one on a Dodge before. If it was a Chevy, it'd be at least an hour, but this is easy to get at. If it was a little drier out there, I'd change it right now.

The hardest part was getting the brake hose. They had to order it.

How can you say that? The government has a list of who owns cars, and I'm on it. I'm really, really worried. What if they decide tomorrow that people can't own cars?

What will we do? Because I just know that all of the police and military officials will rush to confiscate all of our vehicles. It's just a left wing green-party plot. Paul Martin must be behind it.

It's so obvious, and you people just don't see it. Why do you think they always talk about smog? It's jus so they'll have a reason to take away our cars. It's all a plot.

Hey, maybe you’re onto something...there does seem to be a drive to de-industrialize the west….maybe they won’t even produce them anymore…

Have you ever seen that Lee Majors movie where cars are illegal but he happens to have an F-1 car hidden (in pieces) under the floor boards of his house? He reassembles the car and drives it to California, which has seceded from the US, where cars are still legal.

It's one of the worst movies ever made. :lol:

I have no idea if he's still alive, Jay. I remember the movie because one of my friends had just gotten SuperChannel (this is about 1983) so we went there to watch movies and had to sit through this piece of crap.

Forget the environmentalists, rest assured as long as the governments have their interest in oil, they will not do away with cars. That would be complete madness.

Now I understand. There really is a significant number of people who believe the gov't is part of some big conspiracy to take away their hunting rifles. Note I am not saying "assault rifles", and anyone who thinks assault rifles are a normal househould item, well, you're delusional.

It's interesting how paranoia becomes so widespread. Who's behind this conspiracy? Maybe the UN? Or is it the Bilderberg group?

I am truly astounded to realize that otherwise normal people actually believe this stuff. When will they start taking away our cars? Please tell me what the timeline is; I need to know whether to get a new one next year or not.

Hmmmm..same sentiments as German citizens had back in the thirties. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

Not really.

Hmmm...paranoia with no basis in fact.

Spoken like a true paranoid. The fact that this is true is beyond you, I guess.

Having an F1 car wouldn't be much help, unless you had the fuel. And it isn't gasoline.

Although it's not quite the exotic mix it used to be about 10 years ago, when everyone involved with the fuel wore hazardous material suits, including repirators and full body protection. Not for the fire, either. The stuff was toxic.

RE: The Gun Registry Must

I'm currently going through the process to acquire a handgun. First I have to pass the Canadian Firearms Safety Course exam for non-restricted guns (read rifles and shotguns). Then I'll have to pass the exam for restricted guns (read handguns). Then I have to round up two people who have known me for three years and think it's OK for me to have a weapon, and someone else to sign a photo of me, and the fees of course, and then wait 45 days, and then pay the nice man at the gun shop just over $1,000. After which I'll be the proud owner of a Steyr M9.

It's clear, reading through the Canadian Firearms Safety Course Student Handbook the authors would be _much_ happier if I'd just forget the whole thing. Guns, oh, so nasty, is the tone.

As a teenager in Toronto (well, Downsview actually), I had two guns, a Mossberg 140B with adjustable peep sights and a Lee Enfield Mark 5 (the Burma gun). Right on my wall in my bedroom. Shocking.

I haven't had one since, but now I'm 64 and it's time to have a firearm again. I'm not happy with the attitude of the authorities, but at least it's not as bad as Britain (no handguns).

I have some other thoughts on this, but I think this is enough for now.

RE: The Gun Registry Must

Well, FrankHilliard, I'm with you on this one. Gun registry is very scarey in my books ... shades of Orwell's 1984.

Agree totally with Cosmo. Please keep us informed on the process and how easy/difficult it is. If possible, can you also get information on what is now required that was not prior to the current requirements?
