"Tighter gun laws after 1989 mass shooting Canada’s worst mass shooting
also happened in Montreal. Gunman Marc Lepin killed 14 women at the Ecole
Polytechnic on Dec. 6, 1989. That shooting spurred efforts for tighter gun
laws and greater awareness of societal violence — particularly domestic
abuse. Canada’s tighter gun law was achieved mainly as the results of
efforts by survivors and relatives of the victims."

Sooooo...that's working out pretty good for Canada then?

Why? Are you planning on p!ssing someone off that owns a gun? Are you planning
on burglarizing a house? Are you planning on robbing a business?

What is so scary about KNOWING that you're protected? If I was a thief, the
FIRST place I would head to is a place with TIGHT gun laws because I know that
nobody can protect themselves, and the LAST place I would try to commit a crime
in would be a place where anyone at anytime could pull a gun right back at me.

Would you EVER think of robbing a donut shop? Has there ever been anyone so
stupid as to rob a donut shop (ok, I'm sure there has been, but that's not the
point). The point is, where there are reponsible people that KNOW how to handle
guns, there is security. All you liberals ever hear about or care about
reporting on are the stupid people that haven't a clue what side of a gun the
bullet comes out of.

I don't plan on it, but I **** people off frequently without meaning to,
wanting to, or even knowing why I did. Sometimes it's because of things I
do, sometimes it's because of things I don't do, and sometimes it's because
of things that someone else did that I get blamed for.

Not that I disagree that you should have the right to a gun, but a gun is
not protection. It is a weapon.

I say, sure, everyone can own a gun, as soon as I get a force field.

I also don't perceive it to be in YOUR character to try to commit a crime.

Responsible people are like valid HTML on the Internet.
